It's never too early to start a discussion about the fierce rivalry between Utah and BYU. On September 10th, the two teams will go to battle against each other, with former Utah DC Kalani Sitake leading the charge for BYU. However you may feel about playing the Cougars, this is an important matchup in terms of in-state recruiting (2017's class may be the best Utah has ever had), getting ready for Utah's Pac 12 slate of games, and -- perhaps most relevant to Utah fans -- bragging rights!
I want to know--what are some of your favorite rivalry memories? Best/Worst?
In recent memory, the Austin Collie 4th and 18 catch in 2007 was a devastating blow, but the Utes responded the next year for a 48-24 win to send them to the Sugar Bowl. The 2010 last second blocked punt was a rollercoaster of emotions that ultimately pthe Utes to 10 wins on the season. In 2012, there was the field rush x3. Then there was the Jordan Wynn's big game in the 54-10 route. After a 2 year hiatus, last year's Vegas Bowl was somehow won by both teams, despite the final score being 35-28 in favor of the Utes. With both teams wanting to prove in-state dominance, expect another instant classic on the 10th.
What are your favorite/least favorite Holy War moments? What are your expectations for next Saturday's game?
