bullshite. They lost to a putrid 2-10 Virginia last year, as well as a 5-7 Utah. And again to another 5-7 Utah in 2012.

BYU is the epitome of mediocrity. Playing them home and home does absolutely nothing for you.

Utah is a rivalry game. THE rivalry game for them. Wouldn't put a lot of stock in that.

They aren't an elite program, but their in that next tier. Much better than Purdue or Indiana or UCONN.

They are in the top 25 all time in bowl games and Mendenhall is 82-33 there. Again, not elite but a solid program and a solid series.

There is some bad blood here. Missouri exiled the Mormons back in the 1800s and they hold a grudge.

Yeah, along with maybe 80 or 90 other teams.

Extremely misleading. From 1902 through 1974, only one Big 10 team was allowed to go to a bowl...the Rose Bowl. In 1972, 1973, and 1974, Michigan was 10-1 each year and had to stay home during bowl season.

From 1964 to 1975, every Pac-8 team other than the champion had to stay home during bowl season also.

Yes, there was a lot less bowl games back in the day. Every team in the country played with those restrictions.

Again, not saying their elite but they are definitely a solid program with a strong following.

BYU is as good now as Penn St. was when Bama played them in '11 and '12. Probably better.

True. And I don't think they've ever scheduled a game with Mizzou because of it.

This is more off the field than on tbh.

With so many key personnel getting DUI's they figure BYU could give us some insight

That was in the 1800's? A guy at work was telling me that they were exiled in the 1980's. Damn, I am gullible.
