Dick Harmon: Mendenhall's exit is already dramatic; bowl game against Utah makes it a lingering event

The stakes.

In Las Vegas, it’s a big part of everything.

Will Bronco Mendenhall get his 100th win and break a four-game losing streak to rival Utah in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl Saturday?

Well, he better.

It is really an unfair case to make. But for all Mendenhall has brought to BYU’s football program over the past 11 years, could the outcome of this game against Utah impact the legacy he leaves as a Cougar head football coach?

It seems that way with what has transpired the past three weeks.
