After would-be touchdowns got away from them, the Utes’ Pita Tonga and Conner Haller are moving on

Hannah Haller so eagerly hugged her husband after the game that he wondered if she missed his most dramatic play.

“Hannah,” Utah tight end Connor Haller asked, “do you realize what happened? I dropped the ball for a touchdown.”

She knew. Everybody knew. Haller was involved in one of the Utes' two Touchdowns That Never Happened in last weekend's 21-7 loss to No. 10 Washington, a pair of disasters within a five-play sequence that Haller and defensive lineman Pita Tonga wish they could do over.

In a weird way, it would have been even worse for them if the Utes had scored late in the game, making those lost seven points more meaningful.
