largely through Chris Hill and Kyle Whittingham, as well as the Utah Administration and their Pac-12 partners, tried to marginalize and bury the BYU program when BYU was at its lowest point.

When Utah’s and the Pac-12’s own hubris caused their conference to implode, BYU welcomed them into the conference and made no efforts to keep them out. BYU demonstrates character at every opportunity. Utah athletics has over the past few decades kicked anyone down if thought think it would aggrandize them. They hide scandals, they backstab colleagues, and spit on civility. Utah represents the worst in university athletics and academic arrogance (even though the BYU student body is superior in academic accomplishment in almost every measure). They don’t have to act that way, but that is how they have acted.

BYU treats Utah with civility at every opportunity off the field. And that is the right way and the way it should be for both teams.

But the football field is the one place where BYU should offer no quarter. BYU should administer 15 years worth of impunity on that football field. Utah deserves no less. Let the karma rain from the heavens. Inflict punishment with the enthusiasm of Aldo Raines.

1616 days and counting. Keep the clock running.

Go Cougs.
