The first series was a Utah classic. 15 plays, 75 yards, and over five minutes taken off the clock.
The Utes faced three third downs, moving the chains on each before eventually coming to a 4th & 2 in the red zone.
Fighting against the elements in an already important conference game, opening the game with a confidence-building scoring drive was exactly what the doctor ordered for Utah.
Utah Comes Off Bye Week To Host No. 21 Arizona State

The Sun Devils’ starting quarterback, Sam Leavitt, will not play in the week seven game. Backup Jeff Sims will start in his place.
