Great comebacks by both BYU and Utah. Congrat's to both teams and all the best in 2012.

As a huge BYU fan, I congratulate and salute the Utes for an unbelievable victory! There was no quitting in those boys for sure. Coach K and Chow did a great job preparing those kids. Congratulations!

Looking ahead, I wish the rivalry will continue but it seems Utah is moving on and I don't blame them. They're certainly in a bigger pond now playing for bigger rewards. I hope they'll be the dominating big fish in their division.

Likewise, I hope the Cougs will do well and be wildly successful in their own goals for the future. Congrats to both teams! I think they both did well and as fans, we're very proud. If the rivalry ends, the only joy I'll find in that is not having to read about hateful comments by some nasty and obnoxious fans towards each other on both sides. That is truly the worst part of the rivalry.

"Omigosh!"

The Mighty Utes proved the neigh sayers down south wrong!

What a great finish to 2011, It will only get better from here!

PAC-12 + the Utes = A Bright Future!

Congrates Utes!

Nice article Rock, you act like your piece from yesterday never happened as the gloom and doom you predicted for the Utes made actually playing the game seem like a waste of time.

But I guess you couldn't help yourself as the blue in you couldn't be contained. Now in the aftermath of the Ute's comeback, I suppose the only ones feeling worse about Utah's win are those from Georgia Tech.

I loved my Utes comeback.

Although I am not a BYU fan, and often root for then to lose, I can't help but root for Riley Nelson. Despite him not being a star QB, I think my feelings of Riley being a winner are similar among his teammates, as they play hard for their QB.

Good job Utes and Cougars.
