LAS VEGAS — After conceding an early touchdown on defense, Devon Dampier and the Utah football offense were quick to respond.
Set up inside the five-yard line, Dampier called his own number and reached across the goal line for six.

The six-play, 75-yard drive took just over two and a half minutes off the clock.
To get into the red zone, Dampier unloaded a deep ball to Dallen Bentley. Ryan Davis also caught a pass, putting Dampier at 2/2 for 60 yards on the opening drive.
Dampier (10) and Wayshawn Parker (5) made up the other 15 yards on the ground.
