For the last 85 years these two teams have met every year in what is considered one of the great rivalries of college football. Ever since I can remember, this weekend of BYU vs. Utah has been known as "The Holy War", Blue vs. Red, Saints vs. Sinners, The Lord's Team vs. The Apostates, BYU vs. The Hated Ones, Brother vs. Sister. This Saturday they will meet again and will decide who will win, Good or Evil. Last year BYU was victorious in what was considered one of the storied games of this rivalry. With 3 seconds left to go John Beck found Johnny Harline in the endzone on his knees to score the touchdown and seal the victory for BYU. In what became known as "The Answered Prayer" because Johnny Harline was on his knees as he caught the ball. I thought I would share a clip of it for all of the Ute fans that maybe had forgotten that awesome play. Remember Ute fans there is always repentance. Go Cougars!!
