SALT LAKE CITY— The wait is finally over. After over three years without games and nearly six years away from Salt Lake City, Utah and BYU Football will face each other as conference rivals once again.

To BYU and Utah fans, this game was nothing but another signature moment in the history of this storied rivalry.

In a game where the Utah defense dominated, the undefeated Cougars held on for just long enough to have a chance at the end of the game. A late penalty kept BYU’s last possession alive, and some more late-game heroics for Jake Retzlaff and company set Will Ferrin up from 44 yards out. He sent the game winning field goal through the uprights with three seconds left, making him forever a legend in Provo.
