[Disclaimer: I belong on the round yellow ball board, but I'm a BYU fan and I like browsing your threads anyway so let me add a touch to this comment.]
Given the way the rest of the drive was "officiated," the hostility would have lasted a long time. The BYU radio guys were already up in arms about the typical experience of traveling to a PAC-10 stadium. The quote from the play-by-play guys just as the flag was thrown was: "If they hadn't thrown that flag, you never would have heard the end of it from me."
