Having attained bowl-eligibility, BYU is focused on regular-season finale at No. 18 Utah

PROVO — Now that BYU has earned its sixth victory of the season and achieved its goal of becoming bowl-eligible after defeating New Mexico State, 45-10, last Saturday night, the Cougars have a new challenge, playing in the rivalry game.

On Saturday (8 p.m., MST, FSI) BYU visits No. 18 Utah, which wrapped up its first Pac-12 South Division title last Saturday with a dominating 30-7 win at Colorado. The Utes will be playing in the Pac-12 championship game on Nov. 30.

"Congratulations to (coach) Kyle (Whittingham) and the team (for winning the Pac-12 South)," coach Kalani Sitake said Saturday night.
