Future Games
A deal has been worked out to play the game in 2013 and 2016, but the game will not be played in 2014 and 2015. 2014–2015 will be the first interruption in the series since 1943 to 1945, when BYU did not field a team due to World War II. Pointing to Utah's 9 game PAC-12 conference schedule and a home and home series with the Michigan Wolverines in 2014 and 2015, Utah's athletic director Chris Hill cited concerns about "over-scheduling" as the primary reason for the two year Holy War intermission. No games are currently scheduled after 2016.
