SALT LAKE CITY — Utah football is experiencing a real life version of Groundhog Day.
But instead of Phil Connors (Bill Murray) awaking each day to relive whether or not a groundhog sees its shadow in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, head coach Kyle Whittingham and the Utah Utes seemingly find themselves in an all too familiar time loop — having an opportunity to win the Pac-12 south division, only to squander it away in a late November football game.
Utah players and coaches were visibly frustrated and upset after their 30-28 home loss to Oregon, and they should be.
