GOOD: Big 12 HAMMERS Colorado For Anti-BYU, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Chant

The Big 12 Conference has issued a $50,000 fine and a public reprimand to the University of Colorado for inappropriate and derogatory fan chants that occurred during the football game against Brigham Young University (BYU). Key Details of the Incident: The Game: The incident took place at Folsom Field in Boulder during the Colorado vs. BYU football game on Saturday, September 27, 2025. The Violation: The fine was levied due to hateful and discriminatory language, specifically religious slurs directed at BYU and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), the church that sponsors BYU. The chants were audible during the game. The Penalty: Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark issued the fine, stating that "Hateful and discriminatory language has no home in the Big 12 Conference," and that the league maintains "zero tolerance for such behavior." The Response: The University of Colorado, including Chancellor Justin Schwartz and Athletic Director Rick George, issued a statement condemning the behavior, calling it "deeply disappointing" and not reflective of the university's values of respect and inclusion. Coach Deion Sanders also publicly apologized to BYU during his weekly news conference. This move reinforces the Big 12's policy of penalizing member institutions for fan behavior that violates the conference's Principles and Standards of Sportsmanship.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.
