TUSCON, Ariz. – Utah Utes star running back Zack Moss was racking up some big yards against Arizona after running in a 41-yard touchdown.

It was on the sixth play on their first drive of the third quarter when quarterback Tyler Huntley handed the ball off to Moss, who ran to the right sideline and went into the end zone untouched.

Moss scored his first rushing touchdown of the game and his 14th of the season, which is good for first in the Pac-12.

In the first half against Arizona, Moss racked up 136 yards on 21 carries. He also caught three passes for 28 yards. After the touchdown, Moss had 188 yards rushing. During the first half of action, Moss broke two more school records, including his third 1,000-yard season becoming the first Utah running back to do so. Also, he had his 649th career rushing attempt, passing Tony Lindsay for the school record.

The touchdown by Moss gave Utah a 21-0 lead over Arizona, who had lost their last five games. The Utes are on a six game winning streak.
