I'm liking USU's chances this year, even in Provo.  USU will be coming off a bye week, and BYU will be coming off a short week to play this game.  There is a really good chance that USU comes into the game 3-1 with lots of confidence, while BYU will likely be coming into the game 1-4 with their confidence shot.  USU has 20 returning starters back this year as well.  With another year of experience and and weight training they should be much improved over last year's squad. It will be close, but USU will pull this one out.
