Utah is one of three undefeated teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision. The win followed two less-than-convincing victories over Colorado and Houston.
The victory sets up a top-10 matchup with Brigham Young University next week in Salt Lake City. Utah will host No. 8 BYU — the first top-10 meeting in the rivalry’s history.
Style points matter in the Big 12. Last year, BYU was left out of the College Football Playoff at 11–2. This year’s conference is stronger, but an at-large bid cannot be assumed.
