Brad Rock: Utah State vs. Utah in a bowl pairing: Don't even think it

SALT LAKE CITY — Bowl people and prognosticators are a predictable lot. They usually go after the obvious, and always follow the money trail. So it’s unsurprising with Utah and Utah State bowl-eligible that someone would pair them in a hypothetical.

The Oct. 16 edition of The Sporting News had the Utah teams meeting in the Las Vegas Bowl. In other words, a bowl game that interests no one outside Northern Utah.

The ratings would be excellent in Tremonton, though.

For me, an all-Utah Las Vegas Bowl pairing would be like a trip up the Las Vegas Strip to see the Neon Museum.
