BYU, Utah State come together to honor LaVell Edwards

Logan • How often does the same person get honored by both teams in a college football game?

That happened Friday night at Maverik Stadium, as BYU and Utah State both honored former Aggie offensive lineman and legendary BYU coach LaVell Edwards.

Decals with the number 50 and block letters LE were placed on Utah State’s helmets, while the Cougars’ jerseys and their coaches’ shirtsleeves bore the LAVELL patch that has been there all season.

Edwards died last December. He graduated from Utah State in 1952 and was a three-year letterman for the Aggies from 1949-51.
