Nevada who?

Your Basketball team lost to BSU

That last comment was for Wes.

Mr. Howl,

"...that's the Nevada Wolf Pack jerky.."  What is that supposed to mean? 

I knew coming on here today that that would be the great comeback

It took you 4 days to get up enough nerve to check on responses? You must have really been shook up by that loss.

GW, obviously you need to understand the context bud. The reason you are getting flack from MWC fans is because you WAC yahoos have been running for 2 years now about how your conference has surpassed the MWC. That obviously is not true. Hawaii pulled the wool over everyone's eyes this season.

I gues I'd take 4 mediocre bowl wins over the WAC's 1 medicore bowl win any day. See I can play that game too. Your one bowl win came against an interim led Georgia Tech team, while playing to what was overwhelmingly a home crowd for Fresno. That win was just as unimpressive as our wins, the difference is we got four of them. If you're going to start discrediting every bowl victory for anyone playing against a team with an interim coach, you might as well only count about half of any of the bowl wins every season as legit. West Virginia was playing with an interim coach and it didn't seem to hurt them any. Michigan was playing with a lame duck coach and the played just fine. I'm sorry but you can't just assume that because UCLA and Navy were playing with interim coaches that that had anything to do with their loss. perhaps the teams that beat them were just better.

Honestly GW, if you don't like MWC fans running it and being sore winners in this case, perhaps you should tell the rest of you WAC chronies, including your commishioner to stop running it about how your conference is better than ours, when it obviously is not.

Nev and Skilz, first of all, I'm not sure how you figure the WAc was better than us the past 2 years. I mean every single power ranking I've seen shows the MWC ranked higher than the WAc despite BSU's BCS game last year. Are all the experts wrong about that? Should we just take you WAc fans word for it? The fact is the WAC has never been better than the MWC. Power rankings have shown the MWC higher for 9 years running now boys. But go ahead and believe what you want. Convince yourself that you're better. Anyone with a brain knows otherwise.

Nev, I'd love for your beloved Wolfpack to come show us that you're better next year. Oh wait, you guys ran from that game scheduled next season. Hmm, I guess you won't get your chance.

Finally boys, like GW said your bigotry towards the LDS Church has no place on this board. However, I'd be glad to give you the true information, that you have obviously skewed in a different forum. BTW Skilz, I love how you say "The LDS Church is a joke" but then come back with this is a sports forum, not religion. Well which is it dude? You can't have it both ways. What you said was just as bad as what Nev said. You sir are the joke bigot boy.

BYU  nice argument but it has its faults. First off I stated my opinon and you just stated your opinon. You can not prove me wrong and I can not prove you wrong. It is what you value to define your definition as stronger. In my opinion If we have 4 bowl teams and one goes to a BCS bowl, then we are the stronger league. I mean really you can not possible compare the 2006 feista bowl with the (smirk) the "Las Vegas bowl"....Not even close. Besides I'll take being the weaker league anyday as long as we keep bringing in the money with those bcs births.

Finally I am not a bigot. I will gladly discuss anything you want to on these boards including the FACT that the LDS church believes you can work your way to becoming your own god that populates your own planet.  If you did not know that ,BYU, then you know less about the cult that your following, and should start asking some questions to educate yourself.

Nev, first of all, please do not pretend to know more about the LDS church than I do. I have been a member of that church for 33 years, served a mission, and have held several leadership positions within the church. You stating "If you did not know that, BYU, then you know less about the cult that your following, and should start asking some questions to educate yourself." is an absolute joke. I love how anti-Mormon, bigots like yourself, just love to pretend that us poor, confused Mormons, don't know anything about our religion and we need you anti-Mormon idiots to tell us all about it. Trust me dude, I can 100% unequivecally guarantee you that I know more about true LDS doctrine than do you. So no little boy, I don't need you to point out what I do and do not believe.

Like I said, this is not the forum for a religious debate, but it is pretty obvious from your statement of "The LDS Church believes you can work your way to becoming your own God that populates your own planet" that you don't want to discuss it, but rather try to prove that all us poor Mormons are in a "cult". Grow up kid! If you really want to discuss Mormonism, I'd be glad to do that in a civilized manner, but I learned along time ago that there really is no use discussing it with someone who has already made up their mind and really only has one objective and that is to belittle and try to disprove someone else's faith. That my boy is the definition of an Anti-Christ. Good job!

Now about the MWC. You see Nev, where you are wrong is that this is not my opinion against your opinion. This is the opinion of you and a few of your know-nothing WAC buddies against the opinion of every power poll every issued on the subject. Do you get it? This is not only my opinion, but fortunately for me, my opinion is also backed up by fact. Just because one of your teams made it to a BCS game last year, does not automatically qualify you as a better league. In fact, many national media members argued last season that BYU was a better team than BSU at the end of the year. I guess noone will ever really know that for sure. Your conference is a joke. You have 1 or 2 decent teams every year, that run the table because they play piss-poor non-conference schedules and then roll all the rest of your barely DI teams in conference. Man, if only we could play the schedule BSU and Hawaii have played the last 2 years, then we would be talking about back to back BCS bowl for BYU.

BYU Backer - As a Pack (and WAC) fan, I tend to agree with you on your point that top-to-bottom the MWC is superior to the WAC and has been for years.  Last year Boise St. had a great team, no question about it, but this year people were comparing Hawaii with that team and I had to chuckle because Hawaii struggled to win many games against weak opponents whereas other than a couple close games at Wyoming and at San Jose St., BSU was destroying their opponents, including Oregon St. and Utah.  Taking Georgia with the points in the Sugar Bowl was pretty easy money, IMO.

Anyway, not to sound like like a WAC basher, but at least I'm pragmatic about it.  All this talk about which conference is better reminded me of an idea I had many years ago: wouldn't it be cool if the NCAA could set up a "bragging rights" weekend each a year which would pit major and mid-major conferences against each other, with say, the top five or seven teams from each conference? (an odd number to prevent ties).  I don't know how the logistics of scheduling would work out, but at the end of each year, the teams could be ranked in order of finish within their respective conferences.  The following year, for example, the PAC 10 1 through 5  would play the SEC 1 through 5, or any other BCS conference on a rotating basis.  Likewise the WAC, MWC, Conference USA and Mid American teams would play against each other, rotating each year.

That would certainly settle a lot of arguments, and besides it would be great fun to watch,  yes?
