Insults are the last resort of fools with a crumbling position.

Option "B" made a surge since I posted then. Because "No" was the clear leader at the time.

Wyoming's series with second-longest rival will end this season (trib.com)


"I don't have any desire to play BYU," Burman said Tuesday evening after the MWC and WCC confirmed the move.

Burman also said BYU's decision did not come as a surprise.

"Over the last week, it became more and more clear that independence for BYU is really what they wanted," he said. "They found a way to do it, and they think it's going to work for them. They'll make that decision and move on."

This independent thing for football may be the death of their program in the next 8-10 years me thinks, there's no relevancy in their program being tied to one bowl anyway, the Poinsettia, that's progress!!!

They should've separated Utah and BYU in that poll. I'd be okay with playing Utah in a home and home.

BYU? Nope. I just want them to fade into obscurity and fail.

Early Thursday morning poll results (12/8/2016):

Absolutely not -- 71 votes
Yes, H&H -- 69 votes

I agree that the poll should have separated Utah from BYU. The problem with these public, unscientific polls is that they can be easily sabotaged (skewed) by outside interests.

For example, CS-ewe fans voting "Yes" because they know Wyo fans are saying "hell no." Or fans from BYU foot-soldier schools (Boise/USU) who'd like to see BYU back in the MWC trying to influence poll results. Or, possibly, a posse from Jason Buck's camp who would desperately like to return to the MWC from the "wilderness." Or Ute visitors who have constantly suggested on social media that BYU return to the MWC.

The good news is that the original WAC/MWC schools who refuse to schedule BYU since the departure should have enough votes to put the kabosh on any plans for re-entry, correct?
