While nearly every seat was protected from the elements, it had little else going for it. The stadium was in such poor condition that coaches deliberately kept prospective recruits from seeing it.

ESPN2

Battle Of The Brothers
The Battle of the Brothers is an American college football rivalry in Utah between the University of Utah Utes of Salt Lake City and the Utah State University Aggies of Logan. Utah leads the series . The rivalry began in 1892 when Utah State (then Utah Agricultural College) defeated Utah 12-0 in the first game for both programs on November 25. For much of its history, whenever the two teams played in Salt Lake City, it was held on Thanksgiving Day. However, this aspect of the rivalry ended in 1958. Since 1959, no meeting has been played on Thanksgiving Day; and more recently, the meeting has been held in September as one of the first games of the season for both teams. Utah and Utah State have not competed in the same conference since 1961, meaning each meeting since then has been a voluntary non-conference game. In the 1970s, Utah and its fans turned their sights towards Brigham Young University as their biggest rival, and the Holy War became the main rivalry in the state ...
