I’ve listed to ESPN, Pac-12 radio, ESPNU, read articles in the Athletic and other college football websites. Yes Utah lost the game but give the Utes some credit.
* Utah had two long drives that resulted in a pick and failed 4th at the goal line. Combined with the scoring drive (and failed 2-pt) that is three (3) drives where Utah out muscled Florida. And yes Utah did OUTPLAY Florida overall.
No morale victories. They had several legit chances to go ahead and win against Florida but didn’t deliver. Utah showed they can go toe-to-toe with a good SEC team on the Road and a top 5 team in OSU in the Rose Bowl. The Utah football program isn’t a G5 flash in the pan team. They arent some middle of the road team that is lucky Oregon and USC are down right now. They’ve EARNED your respect. Utah will continue to fight for respect and the next time they get another chance they will deliver,
