Not sure why, but this was my favorite rivalry win of the current streak. Maybe it's because BYU was a touchdown favorite, and Utah mostly dominated throughout the game, and shut things down time after time when it mattered most, despite still getting their defense figured out early in the year.
Side note: Travis Wilson won national player of the week honors for this, but my player of the game was #15, Michael Walker, for his end zone breakup on 4th and goal, as well as his late interception on 4th down as well. Fortunately, this highlight video is really good, and shows a lot of the great defensive plays that I wasn't able to fit into the poll.
