SALT LAKE CITY — In another wild rivalry-game finish, the No. 17 Utah Utes claimed a come-from-behind victory over the visiting BYU Cougars Saturday night, extending their winning streak to eight.
The Cougars started out hot and were the aggressors for much of the first half as they took a 20-0 lead at halftime. Utah, though, would respond in the second half to score 28-unanswered points en route to a 35-27 victory over their rival to close out the regular season.
Utah escaped with a win, but it was far from a shining performance by the Utes.
