When the Utah Utes are hot, they’re very hot. When they’re not, they’re not. Utah is currently sitting in the top spot in the Pac-12 South and, although they have an identical conference record to Southern Cal, they have a better overall record and they also hold the tie-breaker. In four of their five wins this season, the Utes have put up more than 40 points on their opponents, but only 7 points against Washington and only 24 points against Washington State in their two losses.
The Utes are coming off a hot game against the Trojans with a decisive 41-28 victory at home.
