SALT LAKE CITY — Add another example to list of heart-pumping football games between BYU and Utah, two intertwined rivals that can’t seem separate from each other no matter how much circumstances change.
“I thought it was awesome,” said Utah athletic director Mark Harlan who succeeded Chris Hill last summer and was a part of the game for the first time.
After falling behind 20-0 in the first two quarters, the Utes stormed back to win 35-27 Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium. As usual, it was full of dramatic plays and ended up being a one-possession game that went down to the final seconds.
