The BYU angle is peculiarly Utahan. I lived in that sphere a long time and still don't truely understand it. USU and UU have fair rivalry but both séem to HATE BYU.
You have a pretty good grasp of the situation, UU and USU don't like each other much but both DESPISE BYU even more. Since Utah was admitted into the PAC some of thier fans have gotten pretty full of themselves though.
NavyBlue said:Grizfan-24, you are spot on! I never cease to be amazed at the superiority complex that BYU fans and alums have. They are intollerable, I wouldn't want to stay in Utah and work with them or around them. But it used to be if BYU offered kids would go there, things are getting better for sure for USU.
And that conference is what? And who is inviting UM where???EverettGriz said:Of course, if Montana moved to the conference in which they belong, this wouldn't even be a conversation point.
Just sayin.

Utah State was on the rise because Gary Anderson turned that place around. A great Ex-Ute
Coach. I'd like to see him back with Utes if Kyle ever splits. And it was close earlier this year. I love Whit but he is an Ex-Cougar......Can you fully trust a BYU alum?
I realize that the Griz don't currently have an invitation, but I would love for them to be part of the MWC some day. Just my opinion.'68griz said:And that conference is what?
