Utah’s first three drives ended in two turnovers on downs and a three-and-out.

Finally, on drive No. 4, Dampier let a classic gritty Utes drive that ate up nearly four minutes and spanned 85 yards. He completed three of his four pass attempts on the series for 52 yards.

The possession was highlighted by three big plays: a 17-yard reception from Lander Barton, a 24-yard dot on the sideline to Larry Simmons, and a 26-yard Dampier scramble.

No. 15 BYU-No. 23 Utah Game

Date: Saturday, October 18, 2025

Venue: LaVell Edwards Stadium

Location: Provo, Utah 

Utah reentered the Top 25 this week, checking in at No. 23 after crushing a shorthanded Arizona State team 42-10 at home last weekend. The Utes have won two consecutive games by an average of 33 points.

BYU jumped out to a 6-0 start for the second consecutive season, marking the first time in program history that they have accomplished that feat. The Cougars hope to have gained momentum in a rain-soaked, 2OT road win over the Arizona Wildcats.

BYU is looking for its third straight win for the first time since 1992.
