It’s one of the most anticipated days of the year.
Saturday night’s big showdown between BYU (1-1) and Utah (1-0) is almost here as the two schools meet at LaVell Edwards Stadium for the 98th time in the series.
Separated by just 45 miles — and arguably the most underrated rivalry in the entire country — the game divides the state and families and is often referred to as “Church vs. State” or the “Holy War.”
During ESPN College Gameday’s segment where they make their picks on all of the best games, the entire crew (Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and Eddie George) all picked Utah to beat BYU.
Here is what they had to say:
