It's rivalry week. Now, before our esteemed Ute brethren (and sistren) get themselves all hot and bothered under the collar, please understand that I'm not the one who called it a rivalry. Coach Whittingham is.
In an interview with KSL News, Whittingham said, "It's been a heck of a rivalry. It's been very competitive; I can tell you that, especially as of late," said Whittingham. "Our guys look forward to it. We better be at our best if we're going to have a chance to win this football game."
If Coach Whitt calls it a rivalry, who am I to argue?
