Provo • As the evening edged into night, and an old, dusty rivalry, righteously stoked as it had been, moved toward complete renewal, Utah State thumped BYU in a stadium named for LaVell Edwards, the Cougars’ legendary coach, himself a former Aggie player.
From that standpoint, it was local college football perfection, wagon wheel and all, even if the play on the field on this occasion was as lopsided as a blown Michelin.
Either way, the former trumped the latter, at least in the collective mind of Logan, USU dispensing with BYU, a program that for so many years had crushed it.
