Growing up in Draper, Utah, kicker Andy Phillips had always looked forward to the Utah-BYU football games. His grandfather was a BYU season ticket holder and he -- like any other kid who lived in the state -- knew friends, families and schools that were divided by the Holy War.
In 2012, before Phillips knew he’d be a three-time Lou Groza Award semifinalist (or even a football player), he attended the game to see his wife, the president of BYU’s dance team, lead the Cougarettes.
