If I told you the same guy that destroyed any hopes of a Pac-12 South Championship for the Utah Utes, was the same guy who won over Utah fans in Utah’s season opening 37-16 win over North Dakota, you would probably think it was a lie. But it’s true.
Darren Carrington scored the last receiving touchdown of 2016 in Rice-Eccles Stadium as an Oregon player and the first receiving touchdown of 2017 as a Ute.
“It feels great actually – just happy to be here. [I’m] thankful for another chance,” Carrington told reporters after Utah won its 10th-straight season opener against North Dakota 37-16 Thursday night.
