The most famous Stanford/BYU athletic controversy was in 1969, when Stanford President Pitzer banned athletic competitions with BYU due to BYU\'s policy (at the time) of racial discrimination.
I would just as soon have kept that ban in place permanently until BYU fixed its other forms of discrimination. Â But what looks like discrimination to me is religion to someone else--and the school is owned by a Church.
Which raises an interesting question. Â How often have Stanford teams played BYU since 1969?
