I don't know. BYU has not lost to Utah since they were babies, so hard to say.

Utah fan so it isn't an assumption.

If Dad had turned him in right away I would assume good intentions but since he

Who's to say his dad knew where the bottle landed

He turned him in the next day. It was 1am what did you expect?

Good for his dad turning him in. Nice life lesson to that kid

Wow. Dad called in to say his son was the suspect.

Sad all around. I'm hoping that some good can come out of this for both parties.
