Utah and Utah State are moving up, step by step.
Both the Utes and Aggies received votes in the latest Coaches Poll released Sunday morning. Utah received 12 votes, while USU had 11. That ranks seventh and eighth, respectively, in the others receiving votes category.
Utah (3-2, 1-2 Pac-12) snapped a two-game losing streak by dominating previously No. 14-ranked Stanford 40-21 Saturday night. The Cardinal fell to No. 24 in the poll.
Utah State (4-1), meanwhile, cruised to a 45-20 victory over BYU at LaVell Edwards Stadium, the Aggies' fourth straight victory.
This is the first time Utah State has received votes in one of the two major college football polls this season.
