AndroidAggie Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I thought I saw that cougarboard poll too. Maybe it was a discussion and not a poll but there were several posters agreeing But now as I Google, this is all I can find https://www.cougarboard.com/board/message.html?id=20585010 I saw a few other comments like that scattered aboot. No poll, tho. If there was one, I missed it. Which is easy for me to do as I don't spend a lot of time on cougarboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange dynamic with the people there. I did not see one black fan when they scanned the crowd a few times.

Not very many black folks in Utah. Just white folks and Polys who moved from Hawaii to Utah. If you want a "whiter" crowd than even Utah, you gotta look at Idaho or Wyoming. (you'll need to squint from the sun glaring off the crowd). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t BYU believe in Creationism? Just curious. obviously a little butt hurt and seeking counseling seeing your team lose to a team that has a lot of Polys that should be playing for your school, fans doing the Shaka (not correctly) and smiling/happy. Raised my blood pressure a bit. I’m all for spreading culture but would have been better seeing sad BYU fans. Focus on next week! Their position has evolved over the years. When I was a kid, we were taught that when god created the earth, that he grabbed big handfuls of othe planets. And that is where the fossils came from. Or that he may have been practicing or experimenting prior to the final creation. The latest explanation I’ve heard is that all life except humans came about through evolution, but humans were created as told in the Bible book of Genesis.

You've really never heard the second one? It's clearly not the official position of the church, but I've heard that explanation from many people in many different situations as a possible way to reconcile the abundant scientific evidence for evolution with the creation account in Genesis. B.H. Roberts, to name one LDS authority, speculated along these lines, although to my knowledge it was never published in any official church publication. I've never heard the first one, though.

Show me one quote that says BYU will now beat Utah because of Wilson. It may be there, but I do read Cougaboard some and I haven't seen it.

AndroidAggie Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 also -- i get really annoyed at the conflation between the church and BYU. i belong, quite happily i might add, to the one and i want absolutely nothing to do with the other. not intending any harm to good lads who are fans of byu, but i've had a few interactions with byu fans at the games i've gone to that i'm not interested in positive affiliation. it's a good school that has quality education, and i've got nothing against it. i just ... like being far away from it.

Cougarboard is the largest single gathering of Utah Utes and USU Aggies fans on the internet. So take any "poll" with a grain of salt. It's shocking how many hundreds of Utah and USU fans there are on a BYU fan site. (but then again....not really, I guess). I guess if you take a look at USUfans or Utefans, half of the posts are about BYU, so some just save time, and create a Cougarboard account so that they can keep informed of the latest news and closely monitor the BYU fans' opinions. There is even one Utah Ute poster named "Scratch" that requests copies of BYU's football contracts. It's a hoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
