SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Social media had a mixture of emotions during Utah’s 24-13 win over Washington State on Saturday afternoon at Rice-Eccles Stadium.
For the first three quarters, it was all about the fumbles that Utah had. They finished the game with seven fumbles, including three lost fumbles and still managed to pick up a win over the Cougars.
Utah Fumbles
Here are some of the tweets from the fumbles that Utah committed in the game.
Utah has a serious case of the fumbles this year. I don’t remember ever seeing this many strips/fumbles

Utah is just going to run stretch the rest of the game and hope for no fumbles.

My goodness. #Utah's Chris Curry fumbled on the Cougs' 1-yard line.
Daniel Isom forced it, Travion Brown recovered.
The Utes have lost three of their six (!) fumbles.

I don’t even know what to type anymore. #fumble

Frustrating! WSU gave away the Utah game! Utah a hot mess this year and this was the time to put together a signature win! 😐
WSU Defense was fantastic creating 7 fumbles. The offense a whole different story. Horrible!! If this is the run and shoot – no thanks! #gocougs

Clark Phillips III Pick-Six
Just like in 2020, Clark Phillips III got a pick-six in the fourth quarter to seal the win for the Utes against Washington State. The Cougars faced fourth down when Phillips picked off Jarrett Guarantano for a 54-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.
