SALT LAKE CITY — Five games spread over to a total of six years, that’s how long it has been since BYU has beaten Utah in a football game.
If the long losing streak isn’t bad enough for BYU on its own merit, to make matters worse the rivalry game now means more to the Cougars than it does to the Utes. Comparing it to a relationship, the team that doesn’t care as much has the upper hand.
Save all the wailing and gnashing of teeth, BYU fans. Under the current circumstances, the bitter rivalry has practically boiled down to another non-conference game on Utah’s schedule.
