Do other teams get to count those as wins or is BYU just held to a different standard with FCS games?

Utah is 8 - 1 now (they decided to not count their ISU win)

Well, they only beat ‘em by 31, not 32 like we did.

Wait, did the game not count or something?

I don't count it. It was a scrimmage.

Strange. What other non rule rules do you have?

You're impressed we smacked around Idaho State? It means something to you?

Nice! You have a non rule rule you like to follow and seem concerned that

Ozymandias

Yep! CB is a great place for expressing opinions!

SandYFan

And mock others for following actual rules rather than non rule rules!

My rule is to mock silly opinions mercilessly. And this is one.

We have less disadvantages and more advantages than when LaVell started.

Nothing except for conference affiliation, which is pretty much everything.
