The bowl season kicks off Saturday with another edition of the "Holy War" rivalry between Utah and BYU in the Las Vegas Bowl, and if the game's anything as dramatic as the welcome dinner, we're in for a treat.

BYU made national headlines in last year's Miami Beach Bowl with a wild postgame brawl against Memphis, and Utah's Viliseni Fauonuku took the welcome dinner as an opportunity to share his thoughts on his team's in-state rival.

Part of the festivities Wednesday was a dance-off between team members, and when the senior defensive lineman got the microphone he let the Cougars know they're "a dirty team."

The Utes responded to Fauonuku's comment by further inciting the opposition.

Your move, BYU.
