BYU rivalry familiar to Wyoming fans, but not to players (Brandon Foster)
Even for players like Logan Wilson, who grew up in Wyoming, knowledge of the defunct rivalry is slim.
"I didn't take as much notice of the rivalry, because I was a little younger, so I didn't follow it as much as some people probably would've," said Wilson, a freshman from Natrona County. "So I don't really know a whole lot about it. This year, I'm starting to get a little more feel that it was a pretty nasty rivalry back in the day."
Though no current Cowboys have participated in the rivalry, BYU has four players who were on the roster in 2010. Because many participate in missions before completing their football careers, Cougars tend to be older than a traditional college athlete.
"You've got 26-, 27-year-olds, and we've got kids straight out of high school," sophomore nose tackle Sidney Malauulu said.
