    Pt 3: BYU vs Utah 2026 Holy War Preview: Keys to Victory, Talent & NFL Draft Prospects

    Send us Fan Mail No. 7 BYU at No. 3 Utah. Saturday, Nov. 7, 10 a.m. MT on ABC at Rice-Eccles Stadium. The first top-10 Holy War ever. In Part 3 of our BYU vs Utah special, a father and son break down the whole game: the matchups, the keys to victory, the talent on both rosters, the NFL draft prospects, and who wins. Utah is 8-0 with the nation's longest winning streak and one of the country's best run defenses. BYU is 7-1, fresh off beating No. 2 Notre Dame, and has won three straight Holy Wars. But BYU's run game hasn't been the same since LJ Martin went down. So we answer the big question: if BYU's offensive line protects Bear Bachmeier so well, why can't the Cougars run the ball? We break down pass blocking vs. run blocking, how defenses load the box, and what the offensive line has to do to win at the line of scrimmage. Then the talent gap: recruiting rankings, roster budgets and the NFL Draft. Utah sent two offensive tackles to the first round this spring, and BYU just signed the best recruiting class in school history. We also look at which BYU and Utah players could hear their names in the 2027 NFL Draft. [ADD NAMES] We close with three keys to victory for each team, Bear Bachmeier vs. Devon Dampier, what this game means for the Big 12 title race and the College Football Playoff, and our Prediction Lock: winner, final score, MVP and one bold call. Part 1: Who owns the Holy War? The all-time BYU vs Utah record and the Greatness Gauntlet. Part 2: Pat McAfee's two College GameDays and the Sione Moa comeback story. Who's your pick, Cougars or Utes? Drop your score prediction at @fathersonsportspod on Instagram, and we'll check everyone's picks after the game. Between Two Generations is a father-son sports podcast covering college football, BYU football, the NFL and more. Between Two Generations — the father–son sports podcast where dad jokes battle teenage hot takes. Because raising a son is tough… but debating sports with him is tougher.

    Pt 2: BYU vs Utah Holy War: McAfee's GameDay Showdown & a Heartwarming Comeback

    Send us Fan Mail Pat McAfee loved BYU's College GameDay and couldn't wait to leave Utah's. In Part 2 of our 3-part BYU vs Utah Holy War special, a father and son go round by round through the two GameDays that came to the state a week apart. Then the story of Sione Moa's comeback, one you'll want to share. In Provo, McAfee called himself "Brother Pat," read from the Book of Mormon on live TV, and watched a BYU student in a Spider-Man suit miss a kick, get a second chance and win $3 million. It became the most-watched College GameDay of the season. A week later in Salt Lake City, a University of Utah social post mocked McAfee before the show, he told a Ute kicker her kick could be worth $20, and Utah apologized. So who won GameDay: BYU Cougars or Utah Utes? Then we slow it down for Between Two Hearts: Mom's Favorite Part. BYU running back Sione Moa walked on after his mission and nearly lost his leg in 2025. He tore up the same knee in the 2026 opener, then came back to score the touchdown that sealed BYU's win over Arizona State. This week he heads to Rice-Eccles Stadium for the first top-10 Holy War ever.
