PROVO — The Old Wagon Wheel will continue to roll in Logan after Utah State steamrolled BYU in historic fashion Friday night at LaVell Edwards Stadium, 45-20.
It marked the first time the Aggies defeated the Cougars in back-to-back seasons since 1973-74 — a span of 44 years.
"Utah State played a great game and they're a great team," said BYU coach Kalani Sitake. "They came in here and gave us a good butt-whupping."
The last two seasons, USU (4-1) has crushed BYU (3-3) by a combined score of 85-44 and the Aggies keep possession of the Old Wagon Wheel, emblematic of yearly supremacy in the series.
