Number 1: BYU vs Utah – Football Sept.9

Why it is ranked as high as it is: BYU football has lost to Utah six straight years. The Cougars are currently favored in this game even though Utah is ranked higher (No. 25).  It seems that just about every single year, the game comes down to the final play. Utah claims that they don’t care about BYU and yet when they beat the Cougars they celebrate like they won the Super Bowl. BYU football is ready to win this year.

This game also has not been played in Provo since 2013. Almost 100 percent of the ROC section will be going to their first ever BYU vs Utah game as a BYU Cougar. This game is going to be loud, fun and intense. This game is also huge for future recruits. If Utah wins too many more games in a row, Utah will get more recruits and BYU may not be able to beat them for a very long time.  I honestly do not believe that this game will be any different than the last few years with the game coming down to the last play. If you don’t watch any other game this year, at least make sure that you turn on the Holy War.

So there you have it. Get out there and support your BYU Cougars.
