Utah Wins the Holy War, BYU's Ceiling & Jazz Struggles | Utah Sports

Send us Fan Mail The Holy War has come and gone, and Matt has plenty to say about it. On this week's episode of The Matt Cave Podcast, Matt breaks down Utah's victory over BYU in one of the biggest Holy War matchups in recent memory. From Devon Dampier's statement performance and Bear Bachmeier's difficult afternoon to BYU's offensive struggles and what the result means for both programs moving forward, there's plenty to unpack. Matt also takes a closer look at BYU's potential ceiling under its program's structure and what lies ahead for both teams. But the Holy War isn't the only story in Utah sports. Utah State is still alive in the race for the Pac 12 conference championship after a defensive victory over Fresno State. Real Salt Lake somehow finds itself back in the MLS playoffs for the sixth consecutive season, while the Utah Royals are making an unexpected postseason run of their own after advancing to the NWSL semifinals. Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz are off to a miserable start, and Matt isn't buying the idea that Will Hardy is the problem. A closer look at the numbers reveals bigger issues with the roster, shooting, and an organization still trying to figure out how to win. Plus, a quick look at what's missing from the Utah Mammoth during their recent road trip. It's another week of Utah sports, honest opinions, a little celebration, and absolutely no shortage of things to talk about. Thanks for spelunking by! Support the show
