disagree, especially as BYU continues to become more irrelevant in the national ncaa football picture

outside of utah, NOBODY gives a $#!+ about the Holy War. I've lived in Oregon for a decade now and I can count on one hand how many times I've been asked about the rivalry game. Nobody cares about it outside Utah except for people who are from there.

The problem with the Utah media is that they suck BYU hind tit 24/7 all year long, whether or not Utah beats them. That's why the cons dont go away. Look at this year, Utah DESTROYED them, but still it was TDS winning the february championship, they will win the fall camp championship and it will be blah blah blah, BYU is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Beating them doesnt shut them up.

NEW: Most of your "cons" depend on (1) Who we replace BYU with and (2) Whether or not we win.

NEW: Exactly. Up here hardly anyone even knows about the rivalry. That weekend in November is all about the Apple Cup. (nm)

NEW: It doesn't matter if people know or think about the holy war. If we replace BYU with a FCS team, that's a step down in terms of visibility, rankings, etc. Again, it all depends on who we are going to replace them with. (nm)

NEW: I agree. I don't think we should schedule FCS teams at all. The Northern Colorado game is a glorified practice. (nm)

NEW: thats just it, you're not seeing it, playing BYU provides NOTHING in terms of visibility right now and as they continue to become irrelevant their benefit to our ranking will diminish as well.

NEW: No, the Big10 game is independent of the BYU question. The Big10 game is happening. Period.

NEW: For the next 3 years, however, USU is one of those 2 games. We should try to schedule BYU after the 3 USU years are over.

NEW: Fu*k tradition. It's completely overrated. Need to look forward to the future instead of hanging on to the past. (nm)

NEW: The one disagreement I have, and have had since we last played them, is the dirty play of BYU.

NEW: ASU was probably the next dirtiest team that Utah played after BYU. Just for random after the whistle bull crap.
