PROVO — There are plenty of reasons why either BYU or Utah could win Saturday night's edition of the rivalry.
Here’s a breakdown on some of the angles, some more important than others, and a few that are just for fun.
Utah will defeat BYU because …
• The Utes are on a run of six straight, riding a Pac-12 recruiting brand, with the program putting significantly more players in the NFL.
• Utah has more players from Texas on its roster.
• Utah had 48 more hours to prepare for the Cougars since defeating North Dakota.
