You are right, there is a special class for BYU fans at all LDS churches. You aren't supposed to know about it, but since you have found us out, I just as well spill the beans.
It's a 16 week course, and following is the curriculum.

Week 1: Ty Detmer and Lavell Edwards, saints in every sense of the word.

Week 2: Post game call in-shows:How to come across as a completely ignorant fair weather fan.

Week 3: Why the second string QB could always do a better job than the bum who is in there now.

Week 4: Ute fans - Why are they always drunk and obsessed with BYU?

Week 5: Miami - the first quarter

Week 6: Miami - the second quarter

Week 7: Miami - the third quarter

Week 8: Miami - the fourth quarter

Week 9: 143 reasons why BYU deserved the National Championship in 1984

Week 10: Danny Ainge: His dash to glory...and why it still matters

Week 11: Important quotes to know (Repeat after me "This is the year we make the BCS", "Ty Detmer won the Heisman trophy", "Chris Burgess is a boob")

Week 12: The NIT vs. The NCAA...a Dissertation and comparison of 2 tournaments

Week 13: Being Holier than thou...Why BYU fans REALLY ARE better than any anyone else.

Week 14: Open week (This week is used to teach about whatever sports happens to be succesful that year, so that we can pretend like we actually care) This year it was men's volleyball.

Week 15: Why it's ok to make fun of Majerus for being fat, but you should get offended anytime someone mentions the fact that Cleveland twitches (I need to retake this one).

Week 16: The Sears cup...what the hell is this thing anyway?

Two lessons I'd add if I were teaching the course

Week 17: Paul James, the Legend...hey, maybe he should have retired 10 years ago, but for those who still aren't convinced of his greatness we force them to listen to five minutes of Bill Marcroft.

Week 18: The Big 12 -- we almost got in, and here's the proof
