Boulder, Colo. • Jason Shelley’s second start as Utah’s quarterback didn’t go well in the beginning, but two completions to a childhood friend changed everything Saturday.
Shelley's 61-yard pass to Jaylen Dixon led to Utah's first touchdown in the second quarter and their 47-yard touchdown connection in the third quarter helped the Utes take command of Colorado in a 30-7 victory at Folsom Field.
Shelley was 2 of 9 for 26 yards as of early in the second quarter, while adjusting to the cold, snowy conditions. He finished 11 of 23 for 221 yards and two touchdowns, with no interceptions.
