It's officially rivalry week.
After University of Utah senior defensive tackle Seni Fauonuku called BYU a "dirty team" at a dinner in Las Vegas where both squads were present Wednesday night, players from both sides took to Twitter to express their thoughts on the comments.
As can probably be expected, Ute players were considerably more supportive of Fauonuku's words than the Cougars were.
A sampling of the many tweets that came from Utah players:

Far fewer BYU players chimed in, but there were still a few shots fired.
