A few thoughts:
– BYU fans were as surprised about the football team as everyone else was. We were bad our first in the Big 12. We expected more of the same. So I don’t think you’re seeing arrogance there as much as elated shock.
– On basketball – We expected to be good, BUT even the most hardened Ute has to admit that hammering Kansas, winning…[Read more]

Amazing how 1 good year in football and basketball and suddenly they’re a national power. They have plenty to be excited about but the arrogance is out of control.

I think they’ll lose to Houston too. But I wouldn’t be shocked by a Final Four run. My prediction is that they make it to the Sweet 16 and lose there.

If TDS continues to hit 50% of their 3-pointers, with how many they shoot, they will be a tough out.

They’ve also been good at pulling out the really close games, much to my chagrin.

BYU will lose to Houston tomorrow and will be lucky to make the sweet 16.

Uber athlete teams like Houston run them out of the gym.

Well, I hate to say it, but BYU legitimately has a chance to win it all this season. On the last 1.5 Mos they’ve been a top 10, maybe even a top 5 team. I don’t think they will win, but they are one of the few that can.

As much as I hate it. Considering the state of Utah basketball, I’m not going to complain about BYU.

I am a season ticket holder and I fill my seats every game, but at the end of the day…if you as a player want to play in front of a great crowd, then play good basketball and make it easier on the fans. Mason Madsen couldn’t even get off the bench on a frustratingly mediocre team (couldn’t make free throws, turnovers like every other…[Read more]

I see where Utes might still get a berth in the NIT or the new CBC that’s being held in Vegas. Eilert and Gabe both have said they’d love to participate. How’s everyone feel about that? Personally, I’d just soon call it a wrap and get started on the next chapter. Nothing against these guys, but they had their chance and it’s time to move on.

Last year. We creamed ASU in the first round and then lost to Colorado in the quarters.

So am I. I expect to see a completely different look and feel with next year’s team, in both coaching and player performance.

I’m definitely envious of their recent success. They have won some big time games and it must be fun to be a fan of a good team like that.

But I’d still rather be a Utah fan at this point because we are still solid in football and it feels like basketball could be making a big comeback.

Good for BYU and their fans. They’re finally tasting…[Read more]

Don’t forget Utah is 3rd in NCAA tournament appearances in the western US, behind only UCLA and Arizona. Nationally, we rank 20th.

I’m definitely wishing it on them. With all that arrogance, how can you not hope they lose every game?

At least the attempt was made

The bigger they are the harder they fall. Not wishing it on them, but the massive BYU pride, arrogance and ego is out of control and they bring upon themselves. They act entitled because of backing from their so-called billionaire donor or donors. Like I said, pride cometh before the fall

Glad we earned the win in January that is looking to be the most impressive (including Kansas) this season and that we had the home game first in the series. We likely don’t win that one in Provo and not sure we could have beaten them in Salt Lake last week. Have to credit Cougars for playing their best ball of the year right now. They possibly…[Read more]

Agreed. I am backing away from it more and more. I’ve blocked tons of BYU fans on the X platform. Just tired of them.

He started college in 2021, didn’t redshirt during any season, and because of that, he’s not eligible for any Covid-19 extension. It’s the same issue with a guy like Lawson Lovering in the MBB.

I am surprised by how optimistic many of you are about our D. Our linebackers should be fine. But, we have holes in all of the other positions IMO.

I certainly hope our offense is MUCH better. It would be hard to be worse.

If I had to predict, I would say we will win 6-8 games. This is an improvement from last year, but it is not where any…[Read more]

I’ve been going back and forth on X with some byu fans over your second point.

The Kevin Young “NBA development” myth is real. Egor has been a nonfactor this year and is sliding down draft boards. Catching doesn’t even play and by some accounts will transfer at the end of the season after falling completely out of any mock draft.

Keba is the…[Read more]
