I just have to remember that there are different levels of loving the game — & I'm happily NOT at the top level of love.

But I do love the game enough to acknowledge excellence in my own team as well as the opponent (& the lack thereof when it's the case). And to acknowledge that BYU has done a lot of things — & continues to do a lot of things — that'll make it very difficult for us to reap the sorta Program accomplishments the yewts have achieved over their last decade+ of Pac play.

But in the end I am thoroughly a BYU fan. And therefore want us to crush the yewts EVERY TIME.

But my love of the game comes first. I want the yewts to remain strong — & for us to beat them anyways. But I also understand that will be a VERY difficult thing for us to do over the next five years, probably. And moving forward beyond that, even.
