EmailPrintFORT COLLINS, Colo. -- Colorado State issued an apology to BYU on Saturday night for derogatory chants aimed at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints coming from the stands.The school said that "mocking anyone's faith has no place at CSU." BYU is the flagship school for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, widely known as the Mormon church."It runs counter to our community's values and to who we are. BYU's players, coaches and fans deserved better," the school said in a statement issued late in the fourth quarter as the 11th-ranked Cougars beat the Rams 41-23. "We are addressing this with our students."Last season, Colorado was issued a $50,000 fine for expletives and religious slurs directed at Mormons when BYU beat Colorado at Folsom Field. Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark condemned the chants at the time in a statement announcing the penalty.
