  Speaker 1: Great to be with you today from the heartland of
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: America here in Ames, Iowa. And we're underway with Utah football.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a low line drive kick that's
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: going to be hit and touched and taken by the
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: up man. And he's got running room 30, 35, out
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: to the 40, and finally tackled out of bounds. That's
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Kyrie Scholes. And about the 45-yard line, Iowa State tried
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: to get tricky right there. Scholl scooped it up and
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: scooted all the way out to the 45. Good starting
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: field position here for Utah.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I'll take a 55-yard field any day. I mean, I
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: hope these guys are jacked up and focused because I'm
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: jacked up all the way here on the booth, man.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I'm very excited for today. This is a good-looking crowd.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: The vibe is absolutely awesome. The weather is perfect. It's
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: time to shine today, Utes.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier will lead the offense out. He'll have a
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: full house backfield there. A couple of full backs, those
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: rhino backs. And Wayshawn Parker as they offset it on
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: first and 10 from the 46-yard line. Wayshawn. Now Devin Dampier.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn's got to keep it himself. He's got to have
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: running room. He's in the open field.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: 45-40.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: 35-30.
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: Open field.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: 25-20.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: He's going to go.
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: 10-5.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Touchdown. Wayshawn Parker.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: He goes 54 yards on the opening play of the
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: ball game. And it's a Utah touchdown.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: That's how you get.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Your star running back involved early. Parker was touched.
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: Once, and that was it.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: All the way to the end zone, and the crowd
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: is stunned here in Ames.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Talk about take the air out of the building. Oh,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: what explosion play right there.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Swinging gate time here for Utah. Nope, they're going to
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: kick it this time, the PAT. Well, that's how you
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: get your RB1 involved early. First play of the ball game,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a 54-yard touchdown run by Wayshon Parker. And Dylan Curtis
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: out to nail the PAT up and through. And it
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: took all of 16 seconds for Utah to take the
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: lead here with 1444 to play here in the first half.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: It's Utah 7 and Iowa State nothing. How about that start, Sly?
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Well, we talked about playing with energy and playing fast.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: What's better than starting? It's not even a throw that
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: you're going downfield with. That is way shot. You get
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: a great return by Kyrie Scholes. And then another explosive
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: play by Wayshawn Parker. We were talking about how we
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: had to get him going today. That is how you
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: do it. That is exactly how you do it. Way
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Sean Parker in the open field. Great blocking downfield. The
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: receivers did a great job of blocking downfield so the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: cornerbacks didn't have an angle. Absolutely stellar job by this
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: offense on the first play of the game.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: That touchdown's a Pepsi touchdown. We'll get down to Zach
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Boss momentarily, get his thoughts on what he just saw.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: But a great start for Utah here in Ames. And
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: now Dylan Curtis will stay on the field to kick
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: this ball off to one of the more dangerous return
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: men in college football, Cameron Pedwick. He took a touchdown
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: back on a kick return last week against Bowling Green.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: He is very, very good. He was an all-whacker, I
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: should say all-Mac kick returner a year ago when he
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: played in the Mac. Dylan Curtis puts his right foot
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: into it and kicks it high and end over end.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Petway is going to be able to return it for
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the one-yard line. He's got the 5, he's got the 10,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: he's got the 15. He's at the 20-yard line. Now
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: he'll be swarmed under at about the 24. So about
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: a 23-yard return for Petway. A gaggle of Utes, get
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: him right there, and that's where Iowa State will begin
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: first and ten. With a 77-yard, make it 74-yard, make
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: it 76-yard field. Math is hard. 76-yard field in front
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: of them, and the Utah defense will be tested early
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: with a good Iowa State running game.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be important for these guys to
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: flow quickly. Knocking out that running game is going to
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: be very, very important. Again, Devin Kafusi, Jai Moe, Lucas Samsula,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: they're going to have to get in there and knock
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: this running game out and put the ball in Jalen
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Rayner's hands.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Reiner, the quarterback, is going to change the play at
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. It is a deep I formation.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Aiden Flora, seven yards behind his quarterback. He'll take the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: first down handoff and be swarmed under right at the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. No running room right there for Aiden Flora,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the leading rusher of the Big 12 Conference, coming in
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: at 109 yards per ballgame. Carson Kafusi was there, as
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: was Trey Reynolds. That'll bring up second down at about
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: nine and a half.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: It's just good team.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Jamo did a great job right there getting off of
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: his blocker right there and making that play.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Those D tackles are going to have a big game.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: You knock out that running game, this game is all yours.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Shotgun formation on second down and nine. They'll motion the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: back out of the backfield. Empty backfield. Look now for Rainer.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: He's got four receivers in the formation. He'll backpedal the pass.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Looking down the field, he's got Flora out there. Juggles
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: and catches at the Utah 45-yard line and goes down.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Wheel route. For the back, out of the backfield, Aiden Flora,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: and he beat the secondary up the sideline. That's a big,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: big play right there. That's going to be a first
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: down of 31 yards. Now they'll go quickly from the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Utah 45-yard line. They give it to Flora again to
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the second level, and he stopped after about a two-yard gain.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Jai Moe is there, as was Trey Reynolds. That'll bring
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: up second down, but that's the kind of big play
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you can't give up to this Iowa State team slot.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: And Jonah Hall knows better than that. That's man coverage.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Jonah Hall's on the running back. It went empty formation.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: It's just a simple... He kind of did a slant-go
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: type of double move right there, but Jonah Hall's played
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: that route so many times. The safety has to make
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a quicker play to come over the top on that,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: but Jonah Hall's got to play that better.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Two yards on first down for Aiden Flora. He stays
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: in the ballgame. Two receivers to the left-hand side, one
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to the right-hand side. They bring a man in motion
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: across the formation. That's the tight end. Once again, they
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: hand it to Flora. He's going to be stacked up
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: in the backfield. He'll get back to the original line
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: of scrimmage, maybe one more to the 42-yard line. Ethan Day,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: second tackle today by Ethan Day, the transfer from North Texas,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and third down and long coming up here from the Cyclones.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I love that. Great penetration right there. Great job by
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Ethan Day. They tried to bring the tight end across
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: formation to kick him out, and he does a great
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: job of spilling it, which means cutting underneath to cut
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: off the north-south motion, but he gets right in the
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: mix here.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: And makes the tackle. Great job by Ethan Davis.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: This is the down and distance the Utah defense wants
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: to be. And Rainer, a solid but not spectacular passer,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: lines up three receivers on the right-hand side. Tight end
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: goes in motion. Flora in the backfield. Third down and
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: seven for the Cyclones for the Utah 42. Rainer to pass.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: He's going to scramble away from it. He is going
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: to be wrapped up and taken down. Back at about
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the 46-yard line. It was Carson Caffuzzi who ultimately dragged
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: him down. Jaimo was in the area as well. Excellent
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: job of coverage down the field by the Utah secondary,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: and that'll bring up fourth down.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: That is team defense.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Ethan Day does a great job of containment right there.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Jalen Rayner tries to get outside, but he can't. He
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: has to cut it back in, and then Devin Caffuzzi
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: and Jaimo do a great job of rallying to the
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: football and knocking that out.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: Exactly what you wanted to do on third down and long, is.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Get a big-time sack and force him to punt.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Jonah DuPont, the punter on, on fourth down and 11th.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Monica Carvalho stands at his own 10-yard line. This game
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: features two of the best punt returners in the Big
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: 12 Conference. High snap controlled by DuPont. Short and end-over-end kick.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Carvalho is going to come up and take it. On
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: a fair catch at about the 15-yard line. And that's
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: where Utah will start first and 10. With 11.20 to
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: play here in the first quarter, we're going to keep
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: it right here. No TV timeout just yet, which is
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: good for us. We'll keep things rolling and remind you,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Utah football being brought to you by Bud Light. Easy
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to drink and easy to enjoy. Let's go downstairs to
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss. Zach, we didn't get to you a minute ago,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: but what did you make of that first touch by
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Wayshon Parker?
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: Start fast, start fast, start fast. My impact player is
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: looking really good. I don't know about you, but I'm
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: really competitive internally.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I'm going three for one, baby. I love it. I
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: love it.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Parker not in the ballgame. Daniel Bray is. He's split
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: out as a wide receiver. Now they'll bring him in
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: motion to cross the formation. They pop pass to Daniel Bray.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: He's got the edge. Bray to the 20 and wrapped
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: up at about the 21. 22-yard line. That'll be a
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: gain of six on first down. Willie Breland, the linebacker,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: made the tackle, but a good gain on first down
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: for Utah.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Daniel Bray gets by that tackle. They're seeing nothing
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: but cleats. They had nobody else after that. He gets
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: by this tackle. They're seeing nothing but cleats because we
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: know Daniel Bray is one of the fastest guys in
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: college football.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Bird pickling of the ball game now along with Devin Dampier.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Creed Whittemore comes in motion, second down and four. Dampier
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: to throw outside. He's got Pagan. Braden near the first
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: down mark, gets it. Needed four, picked up five. That's
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: his first catch of the day today. And a Utah
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: first down brought to you by Ivory Holmes. Carson Willick,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the linebacker, pushed him out of bounds.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Great job right there. Again, you've got that two-quarterback system,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: so they're thinking something's going to happen with Bird in
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the backfield, and all he does is a simple out route,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: and Brandon Pagan is the guy that you target. Great
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: job of usage of the two-quarterback system there.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Pistol formation. Parker back at the ball game on first
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: and ten. Ball out at the 27-yard line for Utah.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier changing the play. Plenty of time on the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: play clock. Motion up front. They're going to get Utah
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: moving early there. They didn't have the snap count down.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Crowd finally has something to cheer about here at Jack
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Trice Stadium. Well, you couldn't hear him, but the referee,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Henry Johns, told us it was an illegal procedure on
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: the center, Alex Harrison. Alex has got to be the
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: one who knows the snap count to back him up
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: five yards.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: That was kind of different.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: You know, Devin trying to change the play, and he
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: took a little longer to change the play than normal,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: and so the offensive line not seeing that got a
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: little uneasy.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Pistol formation again, first down handoff. Wayshawn Parker again picks
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: his way forward, and Wayshawn gets out to about the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: 26-yard line, picks up four of the five they lost
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: on the penalty. And Zemir Hawk made the tackle for
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. That'll bring up second down. And we'll call
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: it about 11 to go for Utah. Hawk running 9.49
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: to play here in the first half. First half being
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Bud Light. Easy to drink and
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: easy to enjoy. Parker stays in the ball game. Two
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: tights and two wides. Devin Dampier lines up in the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: shotgun on second down and 11. Four man down front
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: for the Cyclones. Now they're going to bring an extra attacker.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: They dump the ball over the middle.
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: It's completed.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: The tight end. Benny, he's out across the 30 to
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: almost the 33 yard line. Tackle on the play by
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: the linebacker for Iowa State. Third down coming up here
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: for Utah.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: It's great patience by Devin Dampier right there. It's a
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: great one-two combo. They They do a sit-down route with
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: an out route with the running back going to the
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: flat right there. You let it clear out. It was
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: kind of muddled up, but Devin had great patience in
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: finding Noah Binney there.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Ficklin and the ball game split wide to the right.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Now they motion Dampier out of the backfield. There's nobody
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: in the backfield right now for Utah. Now they bring
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Bird back in. Third down and about five. Ficklin's going
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: to keep it himself. Bird out to the edge, and
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: he's not going to get there. He'll be stopped at
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: about the 35-yard line. Two yards shy of first down yardage.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: The middle linebacker made the tackle on the play. That's Smelgen.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Iowa State was ready for Ficklin. That'll bring up fourth down,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and the punt team comes out for Utah. That penalty
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: really set them back.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: It did.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: It did.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: It messed up the play.
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: Utah has changed numbers for the Terminus State play.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it messed up the play calling just a little
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: bit there, but great job by the defense. As we said,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Their front seven is very stingy. They play really aggressive
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: around the line of scrimmage.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: So Aiden Flora took a punt back a week ago
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: for a touchdown against Bowling Green. Stands at his own
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: 17-yard line. Orion Phillips on the punt here for the Utes.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: It's a short kick. It's an end-over-end kick. Flora's going
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: to let it hit. It takes a kick out of
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: bounds at about the 21-yard line. And that's where Iowa
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: State will begin first and 10 when we get back.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Our first time out of the afternoon with 8.06 to
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: play here the first quarter. It's Utah 7. In Iowa State, nothing.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Our first half being brought to you by Slackwater Pizza,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: bringing awesome food and great vibes for the whole family.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: It's Slackwater Pizza. For the Big O' Tires broadcast booth
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: in Ames, Iowa, it's Utah football from ESPN 700 and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the Ute Sports Radio Network.
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Big
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: O' Tires on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: From Ames, Iowa, 8.06 to play in the first quarter,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Utah 7. And the Iowa State Cyclones, nothing. Utah fans
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: all season long swing by your local Smith's and save
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: on your favorite PepsiCo products. Pepsi was made for Utes watching.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Iowa State's got the football. They'll give it to them
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: at the 22-yard line. Utah scored on the first play
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: of the ball game. 54-yard touchdown run by Wayshon Parker.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Got stopped on the last drive. The penalty didn't help things,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: did it?
• 12:24
  Speaker 8: No, no.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: It set them back, and it just messes up the
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: rhythm and flow, so you need a big chunk play there.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: or another first down to kind of reset things, and
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: they just weren't able.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: To do that.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: So the Cyclones, with a 78-yard field in front of them,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: run an offset pistol formation, got a tight end to
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the right slot. And the tailback of the ballgame, Petway.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Motion to another tight end to the right-hand side. Petway's
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: got it, and he's got some running room, 25-30. out
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: to about the 33, but this one's probably coming back.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: A flag right in the middle of the scrum. Likely
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: a hold against the Iowa State Cyclones.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: That's normally where that flag is meant, and that was
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: a pretty big hole, and with Utah being gap sound,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: that's the only way you get a hole like that.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Personal foul.
• 13:16
  Speaker 8: Face mask. Deep back. Wow.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Well, it was Pupu Cepulona that got his hands up,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: so Utah just gifted Iowa State 15 free yards and
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: so good starting field position gets better now for iowa
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: state they'll move this ball all the way out to
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: about the thought about the 48 yard line.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah that was evident they just played that replay on
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: the on the big board that was a that was
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: definitely a face mask he was getting double teamed and
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: trying to come off and he grabbed the the offensive
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: lineman's face.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Flag on the play brought to you by Ann Collar
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Utah's number one shirt so just shy of midfield first
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: down and 10 they shift personnel around Petaway back to
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: the backfield now next to Jalen Rayner Utah crowding the
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: line of scrimmage five and six near the box right
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: now Rayner takes the snap back pedals on a three-step
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: drop throws to the outside almost intercepted on a dive
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: by Jonu Hall Petaway was going up the field on
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: a fly route And the quarterback thought it was going
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: to be a comeback route. It goes incomplete.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Well, it's played really well because that needs to be
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: communication between the corner and the linebacker right there because
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: the corner has a receiver. It's kind of trying to
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: be a natural pick play. The quarterback's receiver is going
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: across the formation to try to get the linebacker. But
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Jonah Hall does a great job of having depth, so
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: he has eyes and almost picks that ball off.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Clock stops, 7.34 to play here the first quarter. Second
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: down and 10 from their own 48 is the Iowa
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: State set. Rayner goes under center this time, Petaway stays
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: in the backfield, now Rayner changing the play. It's actually
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Arnold Barnes now in the backfield, they're going to hand
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: it to Barnes, he's the third tailback, and he's going
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: to be submarined immediately, Jono Hall right there, to make
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the tackle along with Jai Moe, and that's going to
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: bring up third down and nine after a one-yard gain.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, good job by Jono Hall at coming downhill quickly, right?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: You try to tell your linebackers to come downhill quickly
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: so the double teams don't last long. on the D-line,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: and they want to double-team the D-tackles for a while.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: So if your linebackers come downhill a little quicker, your
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: D-tackles aren't double-teamed, and you stop that play at the
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Cyclones 0-1 on third down. They face a third down
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: and nine. This, again, where the Utah defense wants to
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: live today. Third down and long. Rainer out of the
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: shotgun with Aiden Flora next to him. He deploys four
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: wide receivers in the pattern here on third down and nine.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Utah sets the defense. Rainer drops to pass. Plenty of
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: time over the middle. It's caught and almost intercepted. Oh, goodness.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Trey Reynolds was there. It went off his hands. They
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: were trying to get that ball to Jamal Palit. And
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: it goes incomplete. And that's going to be fourth down.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: But Reynolds was this close to his second pick of
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: the year.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: I felt it. I felt it. I thought it was
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: in his hands. But he was looking to blow the
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: guy up. He didn't think the guy would drop it
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: the way he did. That was kind of a last-second thing,
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: but he almost had that pick.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: It wasn't going to be a first down either way.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: It was short of the sticks, but it might have
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: been a go-for-it situation for Iowa State. Instead, the punter,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Josh DuPont, comes back out, and Monte Carvalho stands at
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: his own 10-yard line. Another punt. This one's better this time.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: It's a spiraling kick, dropping Carvalho back. He'll take it
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: at about the 9-yard line and be dropped right there.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I like the confidence by Carvalho not to let that
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: ball hit and maybe check up inside, but Utah's going
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: to have about a 90-yard field in front of them
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: right here with 634 to play in the first quarter.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Timeout on the field here in Ames, Iowa. Our first
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: half being brought to you by our friends at doTERRA,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: the official essential oils partner, University of Utah Athletics. This
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Radio Network.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Smiths
• 16:43
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Back at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa, Utah's third
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: possession of the game. They lead at 7-0 with 6.34
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: to play here in the first quarter. They've got it
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: first and 10 from their own 10-yard line after the
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: punt by DuPont. Dampier brings Wayshawn Parker into the backfield.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Offset pistol they handed to Wayshawn. He's going to have
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: the edge again through a tackler. Bakes one, now two tackles.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Spins his way out to about the 19-yard line and
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: a late flag of the play. We'll see if this
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: one might be against Iowa State. Might be a personal foul,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: maybe even a face mask because Weishan is slow to
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: get up. Now he's up and he's okay, but that
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: flag came in late on the tackle, didn't it, Sly?
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: It felt like the defender did a couple extra rolls
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: right there, a couple of elegant rolls.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: After play was over.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Personal foul.
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: Late hit, number 93 of the defense. 15-yard penalty, 191st.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Down. Number 93 of the defense for the Iowa State
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Cyclones is Jake Jankowski. Transfer from Washington State. That will
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: tack 15 on to the end of the run for Parker.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: And that ball moves out to the 34-yard line. First
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and 10, Utah. That was a good run anyway by Wayshott.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: He picked up seven, almost eight yards. He checks out.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Looks like Nate Johnson's checked in. Or is that Daniel Bray?
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: First down, handoff. Daniel Bray picking his way forward. Gets
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: about a yard out to the 35-yard line. Slimgin, the
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: middle linebacker, made the tackle for Iowa State. Second down
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: and nine coming up.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you can tell this defense was a little frustrated.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: That's what that play was, that penalty on there. A
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: little frustrated. Wayshon Parker's kind of having his way with
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: them right now as he checks back into the game.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Three carries, 67 yards so far for Wayshon, including that
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: 54-yard touchdown. Second down and nine.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: See if we take a shot here.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Ficklin in the ballgame goes in motion. Play action pass,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier. He's got lots of time. He's going down
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: the field.
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: Oh, man.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Ricky, what are you doing?
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Ricky Johnson broke off his route. Devin thought he was
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: going deep. Instead, it goes incomplete. That'll bring up third
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: and nine. Johnson had a step on the defender. Then
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: he just broke his route off.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know what Ricky was doing. Obviously, there's a
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: read route. But, Ricky, when you have the step on
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: your defender, keep going. Because what you see is what
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: the quarterback sees right there. That's a touchdown if Ricky
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: keeps going. But he read stop route on that for
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: some reason. He did have the edge on the defender.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Gets loud for the first time today here at Track
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Tri Stadium. Third down and nine for Utah. They're 0
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: for 1 on third down. Parker back in the ballgame
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: for the Utes. Iowa State with five in the line
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Everybody else playing coverage. Whittemore comes in motion.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Dampier to pass. Lots of time down the field. He's
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: got Whittemore open. 45 at the Iowa State 40. Creed
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Whittemore out of bounds at the ISU. 33-yard line. He
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: was so wide open behind the play. A big pitch
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: and catch, and that's a first down. Nagoi made the tackle.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: It may have saved a touchdown.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Hurry up here.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Utah going hurry up. Late substitute comes on here for
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Iowa State from the 35. Dampier to pass again over
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the middle. He's got a wide open way. Sean Parker
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: immediately taken down after a four-yard gain at the 31-yard line.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Sullivan Schmelgen made the tackle there for Iowa State.
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: As we said, we're going to have the edge. in
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: the passing game here.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: They play so aggressive a line of scrimmage from their
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: pressures and even their general plays. They play really aggressive.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: That Creed Whittemore play came wide open.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Full house backfield for Utah. Two blockers, two quarterback and
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: a running back. And that's Daniel Brand, the backfield on
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: second down and six. Devin keeps it himself, picks his
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: way forward and gets to the 26-yard line. Four, almost
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: five more yards for Devin. He'll be just shy of
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: first down yardage. Tackle on the play by... Deron Goodman, safety,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: that'll bring up third.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Down and one. It's such an interesting set for your
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: defense to have to deal with. You've got to, of course,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: respect the running back, but go with the pullers, go
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: with the extra guys, and Utah seems to have the
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: edge on Iowa State with their eyes at looking at things.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I think Utah might take a shot right here. They've
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: got man coverage to the outside. Third down and one.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Dampier going under center. He's got Daniel Bray behind him.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: They hand it to Daniel Bray, and he's wrapped up
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: behind the line of scrimmage. He loses not one. Yeah,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: he loses a yard back to the 27. He never
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: had a chance on that. Bryson Lamb shot in that
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: gap and pulled him down by his neck. It'll be
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: fourth down and two, and Utah's going to keep the
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: offense out there.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a big decision right here because you
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: can kick the field goal, definitely take the points right here,
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: but also you want momentum, and if you want to
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: start fast, you need to pile on these points.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Three receivers split to the left as it gets loud
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: again at Jack Trice. Third down and make it fourth
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: down and two for Utah. Dampier under center. Now he's
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: split out. Wayshawn Parker, the wildcat bat. Wayshawn's going to
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: follow his blocking straight ahead and get first down yardage
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: to the 24-yard line. He had the big man right
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: there in the slot. Semi-town long going to block the
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: way and lead the way. And that's a first down
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: for Utah and Ivory Holmes. First down.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: That's a great job by Wayshon Parker right here. Putting
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: his head down and getting those extra yards needed. It
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: was blocked up. Defended all right. It wasn't defended great,
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: but defended all right. They had the ability to stop
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: him behind the yard to gain right there.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: But Wayshon Parker's will got the first down.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: First and 10 at the Iowa State 24-yard line on
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the edge of the red zone. Whittemore comes in motion.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Parker the tailback. Play action pass for Dampier. Lots of time.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Down the field. Man open.
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: Caught.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Touchdown.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Braden Pagan beat the safety to the seam and into
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: the end zone for a touchdown. 24 yards from Devin Dampier,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: and the big year for Braden Pagan continues for Utah.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: I tell you what, if Iowa State's going man coverage all.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: Day, yeah, we're going to turn the park.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Goodness gracious, plenty of time for Devin Dampier to survey
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: the defense, and he just threw a seed down the
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: seam to Pagan for a Pepsi touchdown. PAT coming up
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: here for Dylan Curtis to make it a 14-0 game.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Snap is good. Hold is good. Kick is good. It's
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: 14-0 Utah. And we've got a timeout on the field
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: with 2.32 to play. It went from really loud to
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: really quiet here at Ames. Timeout on the field for
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the Big O Tires broadcast booth. 2.32 to play in
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: the first. 14-0 Utah from ESPN 700 Ute Sports Radio Network.
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Bamboo

• 23:40
  Speaker 1: off the game clock. Braden Pagan with another touchdown catch.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: He's got four of them now this year. And Utah
• 23:48

  Speaker 1: It's Utah football. Got a little spat stat for you.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: If you're just joining us, Utah scored on the first play.
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: Of the game.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: 54-yard touchdown run for Wayshon Parker. The last time they
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: scored on the first play of the game. Got to
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: go back to 2023 against UCLA when Kareni Reid picked off.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Do you remember who he picked off? Dante Moore, who
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: was the UCLA quarterback at the time, and he took
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: it in for the touchdown in the first play of
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: He was a freshman then.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: A freshman at UCLA.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: But now he's the Oregon quarterback.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: He's the Oregon quarterback now, yeah.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: How about that, yeah.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: So Dave Spadafore playing injured but on the road with
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: us today. Dave, good to see you. Matty Robles back
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: after a weekend of wrestling last weekend. Slides up here
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: with me. Zach's downstairs. We'll get to him in just
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: a few minutes. Dylan Curtis has it teed up at
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: his own 35. Going to kick it deep. Cameron Petaway
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: ready to return this. He returned the first one out
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: to about the 23-yard line. Curtis got a little breeze
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: in his face. This one's returnable again, but Petaway's going
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: to take the fair catch instead at his own one-yard line.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: And Iowa State will begin at their own 25-yard line,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: first and 10. What have you made of the Utah
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: defense so far in a couple of drives for Iowa State?
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: Excellent.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Excellent. They've had one or two slip-ups, that coverage, but
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: it's mistakes that can be fixed, which I'm always good
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: for with You know, it's a mistake that I don't,
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: it'll take some time to fix, that it worries me.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: But the mistakes that I've seen, that can be fixed
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: in a play, within a series or whatever. But the
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Utah defense is playing extremely fast, staying on their keys,
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: knocking out the run, which is exactly what they need
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: to do in this game.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: 2.32 to play here in the first quarter. Iowa State
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: first and 10 at their own 25-yard line. Three receivers
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: lined up to the right-hand side floor of the tailback
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: next to Jalen Rayner. He motions out of the backfield now.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Rayner's going to throw the screen pass in the flat
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: to him. He splits a couple of defenders and takes
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: it out to about the 30-yard line. It looked like
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: he'd be dropped for a loss. Good job by Florida.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Squirt through that little hole and pick up five.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jonah Hall had the coverage right there. But he
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: takes the upward angle. He's got to beat the guy
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: to the spot right there, but great job by Trey Reynolds.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Empty backfield this time. Rayner to throw again in the flat.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: This one's complete, and that's going to be first down
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: yardage to Amari Hayes, who gets it out to about
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: the 39-yard line for a gain of nine. He was
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: wide open out there.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was just them going hurry up to the
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, and Utah wasn't totally set in their defense.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: So first and 10 at their own 39. Rainer's going
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: to pass again. Four-man rush for Utah. He's taking a
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: shot down the field. He's got a man out there
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: and incomplete. He overshot his man, Omari Hayes, who was
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: working on Jackson Benny that time. It goes incomplete. And
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: the clock stops with a minute 44 to play here
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: in the first.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: That nickel position is so hard to cover.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: That's just the go route. That's what we've seen last
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: year at Baylor where they just took shots down deep
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: the entire time.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: But great job by Jackson Binney at not panicking.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: He didn't panic in the open space right there because
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: if he panicked, touched the receiver, it'd be a penalty
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: that didn't need to happen. But great job by Jackson Binney.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Second down and 10. Iowa State from their own 39.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Trips to the left-hand side. And Rainer, the quarterback, backs
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: up into the shotgun. He's going to keep it himself
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: out on the edge. He cuts it back to the inside.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: There's running room for him, and Jalen Rayner picks up
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: eight yards. Now to the 47-yard line. It looked like
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: a couple of people had him, but not until Ethan
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Day dragged him down after eight yards. Brings up third
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: down and short here with Colones.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great job by Rayner at keeping the
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: play alive right there. There's a couple times they could
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: have had him in the backfield, could have had him
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: for a one-yard gain.
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: But he keeps upright and picks up eight yards, making
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: third down and short.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Cyclones on the afternoon. 0-2 on third down. Face a
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: third down and two here from their own 47.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: Army, Army.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Utah crowds the line of scrimmage. Three tight ends here
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: for Iowa State. They hand that ball straight ahead, and
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: he's going to be short. He's not going to get there.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: That's Arnold Barnes, third tailback. Transfer in from Tulane. He's
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: about a yard shy of it. It's going to be
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: fourth down and one coming up here. Let's see if
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Iowa State decides to keep the offense out there. They will. Well,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: they're rolling the dice here early. Jimmy Rogers has seen
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: that his defense isn't having much success stopping Utah. So
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: fourth down and one coming up here for the Cyclones.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: They've got to get to their own 49. It's a
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: long yard, too. It's more like a yard and a half.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: They bring the big personnel in. They go with an
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: I formation. Rayner goes under center. Utah crowds the line.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Three tight ends and a fullback here for the Iowa
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: State Cyclones. Toss sweep to the tailback, and he's going
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: to be close.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: He might be short.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: He's going to be very close.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: They're going to need a measurement.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: That was Easton Miller who got it. He may be short.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: I think you're right, Sly. I think they are going
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: to need a measurement on this.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: They're going to need a measurement, but I don't think
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: he got there.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: By where the football is, he did not. It is
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: shy of the 49-yard line.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: Great job by that defense right there.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: That defense, that was just a student body. Everybody to
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: the middle of the line, toss, sweep. They're going to
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: bring the chains in from the Utah side of the field,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: but I'm just eyeballing it here, so I think he's short.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing. Even if they mark it, I
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: would be more Gascali up in the booth. Look at
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: this to make sure, because I would challenge it on
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the spot on the field even.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: He's short he's he's a full length of the football
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: short that's going to be utah football with 13 seconds
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: left here in the first quarter the utah defense stands
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: up big on fourth down and they get the offense
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: the ball back on the iowa state side of midfield
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: what a stop by the utah d a.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: Great job by these guys everybody that's team defense right
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: there doing a great.
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: Job on the field short line again yeah.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: If they want to review it go ahead because i
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: was like if you mark it as a first down
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: i would say review it but um that was just
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: a great outstanding job by the defense reading the keys
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: staying in technique again as you said student body that
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: means all right we got to buckle down and be
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: tough here everybody's got to dig a little grass and
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: uh that's exactly what happened right there they stood up
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: stalemated the offensive line and pulled the running back down
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: before he made.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: The line of game.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure he got there, but we're going to
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: check and see. I'm watching the replay on the Jumbotron.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: He looks to be shy of it. It's got to
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: be pretty overwhelming and compelling evidence for him to be there,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see it at the first look we
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: saw on the Jumbotron. We'll see what the officials on
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: the replay decide to do here, but as it stands
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: right now, Utah's going to have it first and ten
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: at the Iowa State 48-yard line with about 13 seconds
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: to play here in the first quarter. Our first half
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: today being brought to you by CR England. Give you
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: a yardage update. Utah's got 153 yards. Iowa State, 65.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, let's see here.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's short.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Boom.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a great job. The surge and then
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the linebackers filling in behind those tackles did an excellent job.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Trey Reynolds finishing that off, not allowing him to
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: get that extra half inch.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: Here comes the ref.
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: After further review, the ruling on the field is upheld.
• 30:57
  Speaker 8: First down, Utah.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: That is just big boy football. Iowa State tried to
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: get that short yardage. Utah stood up to it. And
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: the Utah offense comes back out here with a 14-0 lead.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Great job. And this is where you kill them, right here.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: You take a shot right here?
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Your opponent's 40, 42, 48-yard line here.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: You take a shot.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: First and 10. They bring Creed Whittemore in motion. Parker
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: in the backfield with Devin Dampier. They are going to
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: take a shot. They roll Parker out, make it Dampier out.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Now they throw it in the flat to Wayshon. He's
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: going to get up the field, break one and two tackles.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Still on his feet, 40. And down to about the
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: 38-yard line. It looked like he might pick up two.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: He picked up 10. And that's an ivory home first
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: down that takes us. to the end of the first
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: quarter here in Ames, Iowa. A great start for Utah
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: here today on the road. They score on the opening
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: play of the ball game. And they back it up
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: with a touchdown to Braden Pagan. They're on the move
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: again as we head to the second quarter. This is
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Radio Network.
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Pepsi
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: As we head to the second quarter here in Ames.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Our broadcast today being brought to you by Minky. It's
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: blanket season. Well, maybe not in Salt Lake quite yet,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: but getting close today. Wouldn't be a bad day for
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: a Minky. About 60 degrees here in Ames. Buy them
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: at their retail locations or online. That's Minky. Proud sponsor.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: University of Utah football. First quarter numbers. Pretty dominant performance
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: by Utah. 163 total yards by the Utes. 65 for
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. 86 through the air for Devon Day up here.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: 77 on the ground. Utah ran 16 plays. Iowa State
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: ran 15 plays, but Utah was just a whole lot
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: better in what they did. Cyclones didn't convert a third down.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Utah was one for three, and that's how things worked.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the dominant performance that I'm talking about.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: We averaged 14 points a quarter, right? That's going to
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: be our 40-plus-per-game mark.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: That I'm looking for, man.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: So I absolutely love the performance that this offense has
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: put on the defense. The defense is playing with that
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: energy that we talked about is the key to this game.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: to this game here, getting those three and outs, even
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: weathering the storm of a penalty or a bad play
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: by them and getting the ball turned over and back
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: to the offense. Now, the offense is doing good by
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: putting it in the end zone here. This is going
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: to be a big shot coming out of this second quarter.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: We talked about getting Wayshawn Parker involved early. He had
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: six touches in that first quarter, four rushes, two catches.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: He had 70 yards and a touchdown on the ground
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: and 14 yards through the air. So that's getting one
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: of your best offensive weapons more involved early.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man. 84 yards of total offense per quarter is
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: exactly where you want to be.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: First and 10, Utah coming out of the timeout. Begin
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: the second quarter at the Iowa State 38-yard line. Dampier
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: in the pistol formation with Wayshon Parker now on his
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: left-hand side. Three receivers in the pattern tied into the
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: right slot. That's Noah Benning. Now they're going to bring
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Daniel Bray in motion across the formation and hand it
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: to Wayshawn Parker. He's got the edge, 35, still on
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: his feet, 30. And he picks up eight on first down.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Good run by Wayshawn Parker and a good seal by
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: that offensive line out on that right edge.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Great job.
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: That was a great play call, play design right there.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: You get Daniel Bray going in motion. But the key
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: to that was Wayshon Parker taking a jab step towards
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: the play side and then coming all the way back
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: for the counter.
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: Got the linebackers to move and got the edge for
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: the blockers.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: Daniel Bray checks in here on second and two for Utah.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Two tight ends and two wide receivers. Tight ends on
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: the right-hand side. Receivers on the left-hand side. Andrew Andrews
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: in motion. Daniel Bray's got it out on the edge.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Beats a man to the corner. Daniel's got the 25
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: and pushed out of bounds. At the Iowa State 24-yard line,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: that'll be a gain of six. David Coffey, the edge man,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the corner, pushed him out of bounds. Six yards for
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Bray and an Ivory Holmes first down.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: I love the mix of play calling, inside run, outside run.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: The defense isn't getting a beat on what the offense
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: wants to do here. And then you run the ball
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: so well as they have in that first quarter, then
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: you hit them over the head with a good play
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: action for a touchdown.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Pick one of the ballgames split out wide to the
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: left-hand side. Keep an eye on Hunter Andrews up the
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: seam here for Utah. Bird in motion. Dampier to throw.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Devon down the middle looking toward the end zone.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Incomplete.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: We've got a flag down here on the near side.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: This one may go against Iowa State. He's trying to
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: get that ball to Kyrie Scholes, but he was well
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: covered in the end zone. Let's check on the laundry here.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the defense did a good job of covering the
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: guys up there.
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: I don't know what this penalty is, though.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: Got it.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: An eligible lineman.
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: Downfield, number 89, five-yard penalty, first down.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Noah Benny got downfield a little quick.
• 35:40
  Speaker 8: He was covered up by the outside receiver.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: That's why he was illegally down the field, because the
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: outside receiver, I think the outside receiver on that play
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: was Ricky Johnson, covered him up.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with these funky formations, that's why it's so important.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: to make sure who's on and who's off.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised they took that penalty. It's now
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: first and 15 for Utah instead of second down and 10.
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: Trips to the right-hand side. Way Sean Parker, the back
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: of the backfield. Here comes Creed Whittemore in motion for Utah.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: Devon's going to pass again and roll out to his right.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Throw over the middle. He's got his man open there.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: Stays on his feet. That's Whittemore inside the 20 and
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: gets himself where it was at Pagan. Now that was Whittemore.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: All the way inside the 20 to about the 16-yard line.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: So he picks up the yard. It's lost. They'll mark
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: him down at the 18-yard line. As he picks up
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: on the play, about 11 yards. It'll be third down,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: make it second down and four.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Great jack right there, right?
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: By him staying up, he got four extra.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Yards right there. Great balance by Creed Widmore.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Second down and four. Two backs in the backfield with
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier. Wide receiver in motion, Braden Pagan. They hand
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: the ball to Wayshon Parker. Cuts back at the 15.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: Very close to first down yardage. Maybe a half yard
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: shine about the 14 and a half yard line. You
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: saw him slip just a little bit on that cutback.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: but still picked up almost four. Brody Miller made the tackle,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: third down and short coming up here for Utah.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, big boy time.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: Here they come, the big fellas. Oh, look at them
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: come in here, Semmy and Sione. The Rhino backs for Utah.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: You can best believe this is going to be a
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: running play.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: This is where you can hit them with play action
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: too if you want, because this is two down territory
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: for me.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: You can hit them with play action here as well.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Three tight ends of the ball game for Utah. Pistol formations.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Going to turn and give it away, Sean Parker. He's
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: got first down yardage. Keeps those legs moving and moves
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the pile down close to the 11-yard line. Linebacker made
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: the tackle on the play for Iowa State, but moved
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: the change. That's an Ivory Holmes first down and inside
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: the Canyonview Credit Union red zone for the first time today.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Go the Utes.
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: Inside, outside, inside.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: It's beautiful movement, great fluid movement, great game plan calling
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: here by Kevin McGivin.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Bray cannot get a beat. Bray and Parker come in
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: the ballgame here for Utah. Peg and the lone receiver
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: split wide to the left-hand side. They want to throw
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: a fade. He's got man coverage that way. First down
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: and 10. Now they motion. Bray out of the backfield,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: bringing back in again. Devin's going to keep it himself.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Spin away from one tackle and be dropped all the
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: way back at the 19-yard line. That one didn't fool anybody.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Smelligan made the tackle on the play for Iowa State.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: They lose five on that play. It'll be second down
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: and call it 15.
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: They just need a little bit more room to see
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: the end zone better. That's all there was. They lose
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: a couple yards on.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: That play here.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Actually second down and 16 back at the 18-yard line.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Just gives you a little bit more room to work
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: with now if you're Utah. They'll spread the field and
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: empty the backfield. Five wide receivers in the pattern here
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: for Utah. Dampier by himself. Iowa State showing four near
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. See if the offensive line can
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: give Devin time to throw here. Dampier backpedals to pass.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Lots of time looking, surveying, throwing toward the corner. Benny's
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: out there.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Caught. Incomplete.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: But a flag comes out. That's going to be pass
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: interference on the free safety Brody Miller. That was a
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: well-thrown ball by Devin Dampier. Benny couldn't hold on, but
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: he was shoved by Brody Miller. That's going to be
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: a first down for the Utes.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Brody Miller was all over him the whole time
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: on that route. No, Benny does a great job of
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: stemming the safety and getting open. Brody Miller had no
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: chance right there. But beautiful ball. Got the penalty. It's
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: going to be an automatic first down.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: Here we go.
• 39:22
  Speaker 8: There is no foul for pass interference.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: There we go. That is... That is something.
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: Again.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: That is something. Right there. He had his hands on
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: him initially. Then he took his hands off him. Just
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: because the hands weren't on at the end doesn't mean
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: it wasn't pass interference.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: So instead of first and goal, it's going to be
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: third down and long here. Third down and 16 for Utah.
• 39:47
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Utah on third down today, two out of four. Three
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: receivers left. Way Sean Parker in the backfield. Iowa State
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: showing a four-man rush right now. Devin checks with the sideline.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Play clock at five. Takes the snap. Rush coming. Lots
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: of time for Dampier. He's going to scramble. He's going
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: to run forward to the ten and down to about
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: the nine yard line. He'll be well short. About seven
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: yards shy. Schlemgen made the tackle. He's been busy today
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: at middle linebacker. We'll see if they keep the offense
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: out there. Feels like a field goal to me, but
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: we'll see what Morgan Scali decides to do. It's fourth
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: down and It's almost seven yards.
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: Disposed of with how good your defense is playing.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: Well, look at this. They're keeping the offense out there.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: This is something.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: What if you try to get them to jump, try
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: to get a little closer?
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: It's almost like three points, but Scali says keep the
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: offense out there. Fourth down and seven. Utah one for
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: one on fourth down today.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, watch Wayshon Parker going to the field side here.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: And a timeout's going to be taken here by Utah.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: And I bet... First.
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: Yard's timeout of the half.
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: Utah.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: And I bet when we get back from this timeout,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Dylan Curtis might be out on the field. We're going
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: to take the timeout with him here with 10-17 to
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: play here the first half. Fourth and seven facing Utah
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: when we get back. They lead at 14-0. And this
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: Radio Network.
• 41:14
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Big
• 41:17
  Speaker 7: O Tires on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: Utah facing the 4th and 7 as we get back
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: here to Jack Trice Stadium. Zach Moss down field side
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: with us. Zach, what are you looking for here on
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: 4th and 7? Well, it's going to be a field
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: goal is what we're looking for because here comes Dylan Curtis.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely going to be a field goal here.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Go up 17-0.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: That's the right smart move to make here.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: That's what I wanted him to go for.
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: And I know Robles wanted him to go for it.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: He always does. It's going to be a short kind
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: of a chip shot field goal here for Dylan Curtis.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Nothing's a given in wet, wet conditions. But 27 yards
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: from the right hash. Ryan Phillips will have the hold.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: Good snap. Kick is up, and the kick is through
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: and good. And while it wasn't a touchdown, Utah paid
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: that sucker off with points, and that field goal brought
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: to you by our good friends at G2G. When you
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: eat one, you'll know. Timeout on the field with 10-14
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: to play here in the first half. All Utah right now.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: 17-0 Utes for the Big O' Tires broadcast booth. It's
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Utes Sports Radio Network.
• 42:21
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Smiths
• 42:24
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Overcast, breezy day, but a good fall football day here
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: in Ames, and Utah off to a good start. 10-14
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: to play here. In the first half, they lead at 17-0.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Back down to the sideline for a Ken Garf sideline update.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss, we haven't heard a bunch from you, but
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: now we're going to. First three drives for Utah, or
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: three of the four first drives Utah scored on. What
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: have you made of the offense here in the first half?
• 42:48
  Speaker 6: The offensive line has looked really, really good, which has
• 42:51
  Speaker 6: given Wayshawn all the chances in the world to make
• 42:53
  Speaker 6: big plays and be explosive.
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: It was just a mudslide on the big screens, and that's.
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: What the offensive line looks like they're doing to Iowa
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: State and making some room for these guys, the playmakers,
• 43:04
  Speaker 6: to be playmakers.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: So we'd love to see that. 17-0, we've got a
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: lot more to go here, though, in the first half.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Zach. Sideline update brought to you by Ken Garf.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: We hear you. Cameron Petaway back deep to receive the kick.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: He took one back 100 yards last week against Bowling
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Green for a touchdown. Dylan Curtis has it teed up
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: at his own 35. Utah's trying to limit Petaway right here.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Curtis puts his right foot into it, a little breeze
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: in his face, kicks it high and end over end.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: That's going to be a touchback, and that's how you
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: limit an extremely good and dangerous kick returner. You force
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: that touchback, and Iowa State will have it first and
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: ten at their own 25. What have you liked so
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: far about the Utah defense, Lyle? I.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: They're, they're flying around. They're taking advantage of the opportunity.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: I like, I, the big thing here is stopping that run.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: We want to make Jalen Rainer be the focus of
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: this offense. I don't think that he can be the
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: guy to beat you today. We play good man coverage
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: so we can stack the box and knock it out.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: But I love what they're doing up the front, the
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: D tackles and Jai Mo and, uh, Carson, uh, But Kifusi,
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: he's playing absolutely great today.
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: First and 10, Iowa State from the 25-yard line. Utah
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: crowding that line of scrimmage. Aiden Floor, the tailback with...
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: Jalen Rayner, and they're going to throw a pass out
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: to the far side, and it's nearly intercepted by Jackson Benny.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: He missed the wide receiver, but he hit Benny right
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: in the hands a little behind him as he tried
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: to get that ball to Dominic Overby.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: Incomplete.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: Jackson was right there.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: But it was good that Rayner put some heat on that.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: If that ball was any softer, Jackson Benny's going for
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: six right there. But great job. Again, we're good at
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: man coverage, so we can be on the island on
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: the outside and stopping the run. We want to put
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: the ball in Jalen Rayner's hands as we did right there.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Tailback in the ballgame now for Iowa State is Easton Miller. Army, Army.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Big fullback-type tailback. Rainer changing the play at the line
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Three wide receivers, wide to the right-hand side.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: Rainer's going to pass, dropping straight back. Pressure coming in
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: his face, throwing that fade up the sideline. He's got
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: a man out there, complete. Out beyond the 40 to
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: about the 42-yard line goes Amari Hayes. That's his second
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: catch of the day. And that's good for a first
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: down for the Cyclones. Pressure wasn't there in time, and
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: they found Amari Hayes open for 17 yards.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a good check by Rainer right there,
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: seeing the seven-round come open.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: First down, handoff. They've got the big man. That's Easton Miller.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Not much there for him. Utah's done a good job.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: They have given up just 22 yards rushing on the
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: ground today, and the leading rusher of the Big 12 Conference,
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Aiden Flora, has four yards. That's it.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: It starts with the two guys up front, Carson Kifusi
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: and Jai Ramoa. Jai Ramoa is doing an amazing job
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: of stalemating those interior linemen, allowing everybody to come in
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: and play team defense right there.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: So second down and 10 for the Cyclones. They mark
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: it at the 43-yard line. Clock running at 9.20 to
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: play here in the first half. 17-0 Utah. Connor Moberly,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: the other quarterback in the ballgame right now for the
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Iowa State Cyclones. Moberly's going to keep it himself and
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: pick his way forward, and he gets out to about
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: the 50-yard line for a gain of, we'll call it,
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: seven yards. Connor Moberly's been in this program for a while,
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: and he gets a carry right there, picks up seven,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: sets up third down and short now for the Cyclones.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Elijah Ellis made the tackle for Utah.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: That was a good overload to the side right there.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: They picked up their blocks. Let's hope Utah can learn
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: from that, because they'll come back to that later.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: Third down and three. Cyclones 0 for 3 on third down.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: I like that stat.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: That's a stat that plays home or away.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, it is.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: Aiden Floor, the tailback on third down and short. Utah
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: with five of the line of scrimmage. Wide receiver comes
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: in motion across the formation. Rainer's going to look to pass.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: Firing over the middle, complete. Very close to first down
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: yardage as he finds Dominic Overby. They're going to mark
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: him just about a yard short. They give him the
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: 48-yard line. He needs the 47. That'll bring up fourth
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: down at about one. They stopped him on fourth down
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: last time around. Will they keep the offense out there?
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: They will, just on the Utah side of midfield. Jimmy
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: Rogers rolling the dice again.
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: This is why I would have went for the touchdown.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: You see the mentality of Jimmy Rogers. He's just like Traditionally,
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: they'll tell you to punt this, to pin them deep,
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: to play field position game.
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: But we need this right now as far as momentum.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: Going quickly now. I-formation and a timeout taken by who?
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: Iowa State.
• 47:34
  Speaker 8: First charge, timeout of the hat.
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: Iowa State in 30 seconds.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Going to keep it right here. I wonder if Iowa State, well,
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: maybe they would have done it there. Maybe they're going
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: to try and get Utah to jump. Fourth down and one.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: You give Utah the ball here, they're guaranteed to probably
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: get some points. You haven't really stopped them all day long. 7.49
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: to play in the first half. It'll be an interesting
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: call here.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be something where they were trying to look
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: to see what Utah was lined up in. For me,
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: I thought they were going to do a nice little
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: fullback dive or quarterback keep. The fullback was really tight
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: to the quarterback on there, so it was something that
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: was going to happen with those guys right there, but Again,
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: they're seeing exactly how Utah's lined up and seeing if
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: they could take advantage of it here This is one
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: of the things to Iowa State's get in this in
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: these positions where it's for the shirt Thor third down
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: and really short and they throw a play-action Well, they've
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: got all tight ends and full backs in the game
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: right now Rainer is in the shotgun and Easton Miller
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: now They're gonna get up really really close to the
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage fourth down and one they call the
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks number I'm.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Not sure he got there flag flies and And we'll see.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: Maybe Utah was offside. I don't know. But he's very,
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: very close to first down yardage. Let's see what the
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: flag is on that far sideline. The way he threw
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: the flag, I think it might be offside on Utah.
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: Unless Iowa State didn't get set. We'll see.
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they were trying to quick snap it.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: Offside.
• 48:57
  Speaker 8: Defense.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: The way the referee threw that flag, he threw it
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: on the Utah side of the field, and that's what
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: told me it was an offside. Utah, it would have
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: been close. It looked like the defense did a pretty
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: good job, but instead it's a first down on the
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: penalty down to the Utah 43-yard line, and the Iowa
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: State drive stays alive.
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: But that's what we're talking about.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: You got to earn it in order for you to
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: get something because that wasn't even a guaranteed conversion right
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: there they got to earn it so this defense is
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: doing their job.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: Here tailback of the ball game arnold barnes Three tight
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: ends and a fullback now. Watch the play action. Single
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: wide receiver set to the right-hand side here. First down, handoff, Barnes.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: Picking his way forward, gets two yards, maybe three to
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: the 39-yard line. It just kind of got pushed forward.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: Elijah Ellis made the tackle. Not much there, but Barnes
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: made something out of nothing. Second down and about seven
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: coming up.
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that looked like old-school football, right? You got... The
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: triple I in the backfield. Tight end going to the
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: strong side right there. And just a lead through the
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: B gap. No messing around. But a good job by
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Utah to only get him up three yards on that play.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: Clock running. It's 6.55 to play here in the first half.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: 17-0 Utah. Second down and seven Iowa State from the
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: Utah 39-yard line. They keep a jumbo package in again.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: But one wide receiver that's over being the left slot.
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: Tailback is... Arnold Barnes. Now Rainer's going to play action
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: this pass. He's going to take a look down the field.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: He's got a wide receiver out there and overshot him.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Coverage was pretty good by Jackson Benning, and he overshot
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: Dominic Overby. And that's going to bring up third down.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Safety help coming over the top from Nate Ritchie. Good
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: help by the Utah secondary. Rainer had to get rid
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: of that ball quickly.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Jackson is putting on some great tape. He's an outstanding
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: one-on-one defender.
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: That is great.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, the pass was hard.
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: By itself, but.
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: Jackson Denny's doing a great job out in space. Nate
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: Rich is doing a great job with help over the
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: top right there. But that's just great solo coverage right
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: there by Jackson Denny.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: Cyclones today, 0 for 4 on third down. Floor the tailback,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: Rainer the quarterback. Tight end comes in motion on third
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: down and seven. Going to hand that ball and now
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: throw that pop pass in the flat to the tight end.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: And he's going to be wrapped up and taken down
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: about a yard shy.
• 51:17
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: He got thrown forward that time. Ty Claiborne, the tight end.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: It's going to be third down, now fourth down, and
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: almost two yards. And Iowa State's going to go quickly here.
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: Rayner calls his own number, and he's got the first down.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: Utah didn't seem ready for that. And they move the
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: change on another fourth down conversion. They're now two out
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: of three on fourth down. And they keep the drive
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: alive here with coming up on six minutes to play.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: And the Iowa State fans have a little something to
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: cheer for here.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're moving the ball. They're actually controlling the line
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: of scrims. They're keeping this defense on the field a lot.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: They're What's good is this feels like the second unit
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: of the front seven for Utah, right? You got Cyrus
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: Polo and Elijah Ellis. You got Simi Pupu up front.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: And so you can rotate in here and stay fresh.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: First down and 10, Cyclones. Floor of the tailback. Three
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: wide receivers in the pattern this time. Is Jalen Rayner
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: going to change the play? Utah crowds the line of
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: scrimmage with five. Play action pass for Rayner. Looking down
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: the field, lots of time, throws it in the flat, incomplete,
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: great coverage out there by Elijah Ellis on Aiden Flora.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: He tried to squeeze that in the flat to the tailback,
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: but Ellis was all over it.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, great, great coverage right there by Elijah Ellis, staying
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: tight to the defender, or tight to the running back
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: right there, not allowing him to have anything.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: So they'll bring up second down and 10 as Utah
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: shifts defensive line personnel. A couple of fresh bodies coming
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: in for the Utes. Iowa State breaks the huddle. They've
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: got it. Plenty of time on the play clock with 15.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: Look at this formation. That's a triple pistol formation. Now
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: a full house backfield for Iowa State. Floor of the
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: tailback behind Rainer. Play-action pass. Rayner's going to be chased around,
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: and he gets away from pressure. Looking down the field,
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: slips and falls at the 35-yard line.
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, goodness.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: He had all kinds of room to run, and he
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: ends up losing two yards, almost three, back to the
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: 35-yard line. The pressure caused him to slip, but if
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: he keeps his footing, he's running up that sideline.
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: All right, and that defense does a great job. Who
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: gets credit for this sack here?
• 53:18
  Speaker 4: Is it Paul Fitzgerald?
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: Who touched him? Come on, somebody.
• 53:22
  Speaker 10: That's what I do. I make sure I go down
• 53:24
  Speaker 10: and touch him. I think Paul Fitzgerald was the first
• 53:28
  Speaker 10: guy in the area. We'll see if they give him credit.
• 53:31
  Speaker 10: As the turf monster got Jalen Rayner. Now third down,
• 53:33
  Speaker 10: and we'll call it 13.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: They've got to get to the Utah 22-yard line. Rayner
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: operating out of the shotgun here on third down at 13.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: He's going to change the play and move Aiden Flora
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: to his right. The play clock at one second. Now
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: he snaps it just as it expires. Looking down the field.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: Still looking. Dumps it off to Aiden Flora in the flat.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Flora is tackled and submarine at about the 29-yard line.
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: Well short of first down yardage. About seven yards shy.
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: Elijah Reed, the corner, ended up making the tackle. And
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: I think for the first time today, we're going to
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: see Kyle Conrart, who's one of the best kickers in
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: college football. He'll attempt what looks to be about a
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: 47-yard field goal from the left hash. He's only missed
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: once this year, and that was from 54 yards. Utah
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: will come after this. Conradi's hit a lot of big
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: ones in his Iowa State career. Preseason all-Big 12 kicker.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: Snap is good. So is the hole. Kick is high.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: It's end over end. And it's good. And so the Cyclones,
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: with 3.50 to play here in the first half, finally
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: get on the scoreboard. 47-yard field goal by Conradi makes
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: it 17-3. There's a timeout on the field. Our first
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: half today being brought to you by Canyon View Credit Union.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: This is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Ute
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network.
• 54:54
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Bamboo
• 54:57
  Speaker 7: HR on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: Gets you a CR England yardage update here. Utah 197
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: here in the first half, 17 on the board. Iowa
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: State 106 and 3 on the board. Welcome back to
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa. 350 to play in
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: the first half. Bill Riley, Stevenson, Sylvester upstairs. Our guy
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss downstairs. We'll hear from Zach coming up in
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: a bit. He'll also get some words with Morgan Scali
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: coming up before he goes to the locker room at halftime.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: Conradi will kick it off here for Iowa State. Just
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: knocked through that 47-yard field goal. Daniel Bray back deep
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: to receive for Utah. And Daniel's going to let that
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: one go out of the end zone for a touchback.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: And Devin Dampier and the Utah offense, who have been
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: really good today, will have a 75-yard field, three minutes
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: and 50 seconds to work with here. Devin, 8 of 10,
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: 97 yards at a touchdown. He's run it three times
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: for eight yards. Good, efficient first half for him. By
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: the way, a spat stat, kind of. Dave just told
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: me that Nick Anderson is driving through Idaho listening to
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: us today. Nick was apparently a member of the marching
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: band for four years.
• 56:06
  Speaker 7: Hey, Nick.
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: Thanks for listening in in Idaho today. First and ten, Utah.
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: Look at this backfield. Parker and Bray and Dampier. All
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: of them there. They're going to hand that ball to
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier. He's going to keep it straight ahead and
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: pick up five yards. His helmet comes off to about
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: the 29-yard line. They'll give him a four-yard gain. He's
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: going to have to go out for a play, which,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: by the way, I hate that. Because the defense half
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: the time rips the helmet off the guy.
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: Sometimes you do it on purpose, but hey.
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: The good news is you've got Bird Fickler.
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: You've got a good backup quarterback.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: Who's clearly warm and ready to go. So Devin Trott's
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: off for a play. Bird comes in here. And Wayshon
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: Parker stays in the ballgame for Utah. Second down and
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: six at the 29-yard line. Utah bringing in big personnel
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: right now. Reese Perimenter checks in for the first time
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: here for Utah at the offensive line spot. Bird Fickler
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: operating out of the shotgun. Three wide receivers. Brings Hunter
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Andrews in motion, hands it off to Wayshon Parker. Running
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: straight ahead, Wayshon picks up first down yardage to the
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: 36-yard line. He picked up seven yards, did Wayshon. He's
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: now got eight carries, 91 yards, and that's an Ivory
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: Holmes first down. And the drive stays alive for Utah.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: They move the chains with 3.15 and clock running to
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: play here in the first half.
• 57:20
  Speaker 4: Man, he is running with a purpose, ain't he?
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: Absolutely love the things that he's doing, things he's getting
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: stacked up in the backfield, but just fighting his way
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: and wiggling for some more yardage right there.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: Hasn't had a 100-yard day yet this year. He's nine
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: yards shy of it right now. Maybe they can get
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: it on this carry. Two Rhino backs to the backfield.
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: Iowa State showing a run blitz. Play action pass for Devin.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: In the flat, he finds Wayshawn Parker. Up ahead, 40.
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn still on his feet. Spins out of a tackle, 45.
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: Up to the 50. And into Iowa State territory he goes.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: What a run by Wayshawn Parker. Out to the Iowa
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: State 48-yard line and another first down.
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: That's an all-conference play right there.
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: Absolutely stellar play by Wayshawn Parker. Refusing not to go
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: down here. Making at least three guys miss. Guy in
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: the open field.
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: Spin move. Is that the Berman?
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: That's like five guys he made miss.
• 58:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: Glock now at 220 to play here in the first half.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: First and 10 from the Iowa State. 48-yard line. Dampier,
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: another play action. Devin down the middle. Has a man
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: out there, Braden Pagan, hand-fighting with a defensive back. Boy,
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: he had an open wide receiver down the seam. Reed
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: Whittemore would have walked into the end zone, but Devin
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: didn't have time to get it to him.
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the pressure came way too quick.
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: Great decision by Devin at And throwing it to Brandon Pagan,
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: but out of bounds right there. Safe play, stops the clock.
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: You're able to reassess before the two-minute timeout.
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: So second down and ten now. Daniel Bray checks in
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: for Utah. Three receivers left, one to the right-hand side. 2.09
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: to play with the clock stopped. Dampier backs up into
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: the shotgun, Iowa State. Shifting around up front, they've got
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: three down linemen. Devin surveys the defense, takes the snap, looking,
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: firing to the outside. He's got a man wide open
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: there to the 40, to the 35, and down to
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: about the 32, maybe 33-yard line goes Ricky Johnson. That's
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: going to be a pickup. on the play of 13
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: yards and Ivory Holmes first down, and that takes us
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: to the two-minute timeout. As the referee told us as well,
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: we'll step aside with that timeout. Utah driving, trying to
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: get points before halftime for the Big O Tires broadcast booth.
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: This is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Utah
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network.
• 59:29
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Pepsi,
• 59:33
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: Jack Trice Stadium here in Ames, Iowa. Two minutes to
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: play in the first half. 17-3, Utah leading Iowa State.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: We had Nick listening in from Idaho earlier. We have Finnegan, Wickersham,
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: and Barfield tuning in today from Superior, Colorado. Relaxing, taking
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: it easy, watching a little Utah football and tuning the
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: broadcast crew in. Boys... Thanks for tuning in today. Appreciate that.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: Hope things are well in suburban Boulder. Things are well
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: here in Ames so far for Utah. They're on the
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: move with roughly two minutes to play here in the half. Well,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: exactly two minutes to play in the half. And at
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: the Iowa State 33-yard line. Playbook wide open here. Utah's
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: got all three timeouts. Dampier and Parker in the backfield.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn needs nine for 100 yards in the ballgame. He's
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: also got three grabs for 30 yards. Devin motions Parker
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: out of the backfield. Devin looks to pass. He's going
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: to step up away from the pressure, dump it over
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: the middle. He's got a man open there. Hunter Andrews
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: is cut down after almost a 10-yard gain. They'll give
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: him 11 to the 22-yard line. Hunter's first touch today.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: That'll be a Utah first down. Clock will stop momentarily
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: and wind again. First and 10. From the Iowa State 22,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: Utah going with tempo now. Empty backfield for Dampier. Throwing
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: to the outside. He's got a man out there. That's
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: Wayshon Parker. He may walk it into the end zone.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: Out at the one-yard line. He had a great block
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: up the field. They say he stepped at it about
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: the three-yard line, and Utah will have it first and
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: goal at the Iowa State three.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a great block by Ricky Johnson on the outside
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: right there. Wayshon was this close to getting a nice
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: 24-yard touchdown.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: But they can punch it in here with the run.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: Second trip inside the Canyonview Credit Union red zone today
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: for Utah. They've got it first and goal at the
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: Iowa State 3. And I think Iowa State's.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 5: Going to take that timeout.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 4: I think he definitely got out.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: I think maybe it's where he stepped out of bounds.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: Was it at the 3? Was it at the 1?
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: Was it maybe a little further up the field? From
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: our vantage point, I thought he got almost to the
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: 1-yard line. Look at the block on this play by
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: Ricky Johnson down the field. Let's see where he goes out. Yeah,
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: I think he dove for the pylon. I think he
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: went out at about the one-yard line, but we'll see
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: what the review is here. The officials have to come
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: all the way to the other end of the field
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: to review this. I wonder why they can't have two-leg
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: review things. Maybe they need to get their steps in.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: So that's not looking like he stepped out. So I think,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: is that what they're doing?
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they may be seeing him.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 4: I don't think he stepped out because that foot's not out.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: Well, then it may be he reached for the pylon
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: and touched it. If that's the case, it's going to
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: be a Utah touchdown. He reaches out, touches that pylon
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: with the football.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 4: He touched it with his off-arm first, and that's what
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 4: I'm saying.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: The ball's in his outside hands. Yeah, it's not going
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 4: to be a touchdown. He might be on the half-yard line.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: That's exactly right.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: That's exactly right. But then again, reviews are crazy.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: Hey, we don't know what's going on.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you know what's going on, sometimes you don't. It'll
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: be up to this officiating crew. It's been good so
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: far here today.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: Head referee Henry Johns looking and peering into that monitor
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: right now. I think he's out at about the one,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: maybe the half yard line.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 4: One, maybe half. That's what I would say because the
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: ball's in his outside arm. I don't know if it totally.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: Touched the pylon. But Either way, I'm glad they're taking
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: a look at it.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that foot does not look like it's not out
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: at the three.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: He didn't step out.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: He's out at about the one, maybe the half-yard line.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: Let's see what they say here momentarily. There's a minute
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: 40 to play. Either way, Utah's in good position to
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: punch this ball in.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: Give way Sean Parker another carry here and get him
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: into that.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Right now he's got four catches for 51 yards and
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: eight carries for 91 yards.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 5: Hmm.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: They're still just trying to figure out where this ball goes.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: And I think they've made their decision. We'll hear from
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: Henry Johns right now.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 5: After further review, the runner was out of bounds at
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 5: the half-yard line. The first and goal for Utah.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: Half-yard line's where that first and goal. I almost think
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: you've got to pay it off with Wayshon right here
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: since he's done the heavy lifting to get that ball
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: down there.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, he's had multiple catches on this drive for
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: big yardage, and then that tough run right there getting
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: you all the way down to half.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: This is where you assert your will on the defense, right?
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: You put your rhino package in, you big boy this football,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: and crush them.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 4: Mentally, right?
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: You crush them mentally by, like, I don't care if
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: I'm on a half-yard line or 50-yard line. You're not
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: going to stop me. That's exactly what this play is
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: going to be for Utah.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: So we'll see if they bring the jumbo personnel out here.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: In all likelihood, they will. They usually do around that
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: goal line. Wayshawn Parker stays in the ballgame. They do indeed.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: Semitao Longa, the rhino back, will play the role of
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: fullback here in an extended pistol. Devin Dampier with Wayshawn
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: Parker behind him. First and goal. Devin, option play outside.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: Parker to the end zone.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: Touchdown.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: Way Sean Parker, the old-fashioned option play to the outside,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: takes a shove from the Iowa State defender, but into
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: the end zone for a second time today to make
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: it 23-3 Utah with a minute 35 to play before halftime.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 4: I absolutely love the way he plays.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: When I played offense in high school, that's how I
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: was like, I don't care about running over.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 4: I got to hit somebody.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: You played offense?
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 4: I was All-State, baby.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 6: Come on now.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 3: Come on now. Come on now. Come on now.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: I've never heard you brag about your offensive prowess.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: Because I like hitting people.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm trying.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: To get at.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: Fair enough. PAT coming up after the Pepsi touchdown by
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: Dylan Curtis, trying to make it 24-3 with 95 seconds
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: to play here in the first half. Kick is up.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: Kick is good. And Utah continues to flex its dominance
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: here on the Cyclones. Eight plays, 75 yards. Sly, it
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: took him two minutes and 15 seconds to get that done.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: Utah's offense has been terrific here in the first half.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: 272 yards of total offense for Utah here in the
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: first half.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: When we're talking about leading into this game and what
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: we're needing to have happen, this is exactly how you
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: do it. Utah's doing a great job of asserting their
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: will early and often in this game.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: Our friends from Fox want to take another time out,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: so we'll step aside with them. 95 seconds to play
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: before halftime. All Utah here in Ames. 24-3, and this
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: is Utah football from ESPN 700. and the Ute Sports
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: Radio Network.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football brought to you by Big
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 7: O Tires on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: 24-3 Utah with 95 seconds to play in the half.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: Down to the sideline for a sideline update. You're looking
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: smarter and smarter as the first half goes along, Zach Moss.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: Your impact player was Wayshon Parker. He did it all
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: on that drive.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 3: I might know a thing or two about running backs.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, he has over half of all the
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 6: yards for the offense right now in his first half, right?
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 6: And we talked about it. Just give him the ball.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 6: He is an absolute playmaker. So he's making the plays
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 6: that we need to be made. 20 point, 21 point lead.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss not only knows ball, but he knows math.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: He is indeed right. Way Sean Parker's got 144 yards.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: That is indeed more than half of the 272 Utah's got.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: Fair catch. by Cameron Petaway, which is a little surprising.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: That ball was at the two-yard line, and Petaway is
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: a good return man, but Iowa State wants it at
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: the 25-yard line.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: I think he got hit that time that he brought
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: it out.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: He was like, I don't need this.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: Was that a business decision? It was.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: It was, because it's like, look, if I get a touchback,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: I can get the ball at the 25-yard line. If
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: I'm bringing it out and I'm only getting it to
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: the 20-yard line, that's a loss. So I'll take a
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: 75-yard field instead of 80. Iowa State.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: Three on the board on their last drive. They've got
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: a 75-yard field in 95 seconds. Reiner to pass on
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: first down in the flat. It's complete short. He gets
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: Cody Jackson there at about the 31-yard line for a
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: six-yard game. They'll give him the 32 for seven. And
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: the clock continues to run here as we come up
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: on a minute 20 to play before halftime. Second down
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: and three here for the Cyclones. Reiner operates out of
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: the gun. Utah rushing four, playing coverage behind. In the
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: flat again. Cody Jackson again. Jackson Benny up to make
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: the tackle quickly. Actually, it was Elijah Reed. That'll be
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: first down yardage to the 37-yard line. They'll stop it
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: shortly and then rewind the clock. Iowa State checking with
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: the sideline.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 4: Scooby's got to steal one of these times.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: He keeps throwing those out. Somebody's going to jump one
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: real quick.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: He's just doing a five-yard hitch.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: One minute to play. Rainer to pass again on first
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: and ten to the outside. Again, very close to being
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: intercepted by Utah's Elijah Davis. Cody Jackson with his third
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: consecutive catch. That time he picked up five yards, making
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: six yards. After the 44-yard line. If he throws one
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: more of those, it might be a pick six the
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: other way. Here's Aiden Flora trying to get some yardage.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: He spins out of a tackle into Utah territory, and
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: that's the best run of the day for Iowa State
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: and Aiden Flora, who picks up almost 10 yards. to
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: the Utah 46. 37 seconds, and the clock running again.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: Rainer's going to go quickly here for the Cyclones. It
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: was movement here on the right hand, so make it
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: left-hand side. They get the left tackle moving early. That
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: was Jake Taylor.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. False start.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 6: Offense.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: Left tackle.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 5: Play result.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 8: The 10-second runoff. Iowa State is elected to take a timeout.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 8: Second of the half.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: So Iowa State has one remaining. They didn't want the
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: 10-second runoff. You done, Henry? Okay, good. It would have
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: been 23 seconds. Now it's 33 seconds. They've still got
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: a chance, and Conradi has a really good leg. So
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: they're only about 10, 12 yards away from field goal
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: range for their All-American kicker, but Again, those outs. If
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: Utah or Elijah Reed or Elijah Davis are about two
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: steps closer, Cody Jackson would be chasing. That ball might
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: have gone the other way.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they ran the same play. It was the hitch,
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: the same formation, same play. Elijah Davis was getting tighter
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: and tighter every time.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 4: I'm just like, it's not changing, brother.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: Go steal that thing. And hopefully he can get one here.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: But it looks like they're just trying to get in
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: the field goal range.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: First down and 15 back at the Iowa State 49-yard line.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: Rainer in the shotgun, Aiden Flora next to him. He
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: deploys three wide receivers across the pattern. He'll drop the pass.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: Utah brings pressure. He throws the ball up, and good
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: coverage by Jackson Benny up that sideline.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: Incomplete.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: They were trying to get it to Omari Hayes, and
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: there is a flag on the play. Let's see if
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: it's pass interference or hold it. Boy, it looked like
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: pretty good coverage by Benny.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was contact, though.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 8: Pass interference. Defense number 23. Ball replaced with a spot
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 8: and a foul. Automatic first down.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: Pretty close. They'll move that ball to the 37-yard line
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: and a first down for Iowa State. So 28 seconds remain.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: One timeout here for the Cyclones. Boy, there wasn't much there.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: There wasn't, and that's one of those plays that they
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: could have ate the flag or thrown it on that.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: That wasn't much, but it was just a spot foul
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: as well, so that was a little less than the
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 2: 15-yard penalty.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: So they line up three receivers right. Tight end in
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: the right slot. Now they move a wide receiver out
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: to the left side. Bring the back back in the
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: backfield on first and ten for the Utah 37. Rainer
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: backs up the pass. Pressure coming. Throwing to the outside.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: He's got it complete to his tight end. Tyler Fortenberry
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: with his first catch today and second catch of the season.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: Pushed out of bounds there by Jonu Hall after a
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: short game.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and now they're in field goal range. It's about
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 2: a 50-yard field goal from me.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing to remember, too. They get the
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: ball to come out of the second half, so any
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: points here will be good for Iowa State, even though
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: they're down 24-3. 23 seconds to play. Raider to pass again.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: Three-step drop. Nobody open being chased. There was a hold
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: that nobody called, and the ball goes incomplete out of bounds,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: trying to get that ball to the outside. Oh, there
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: is a penalty.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw something thrown, but I couldn't see it.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a hold, I think, on Iowa
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: State here. He had a defensive line.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because that should have been a sack.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: Absolutely turned around. It would have been a sack.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: It would have been like a 12-yard sack.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: Holding.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 8: Offense number 51.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: 10-yard penalty.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 8: Second down. Three seconds left. 16 seconds. 16 seconds.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: That's the right tackle, King, who got called for that hold,
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: and that's a spot foul from the hold, so that's
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: going to back him up. to about the 43-yard line.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 2: So does the sack, because there's a penalty, you stop
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: the clock, but is there still a runoff?
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, he said it's a 16, but.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: That's no runoff.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: No?
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: So second down here, 16 seconds to play. Flora comes
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: back in the backfield here for a little protection. Utah's
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: going to rush four here. With 16 seconds left in
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: the half. Over the middle and incomplete. They've skied that
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: ball to the tight end. Fortenberry, incomplete. And to be
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: very fair right now. They got taken out of field
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: goal range. You're right on the edge of Kyle Conradi's
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: kicking field goal range here with 13 seconds left.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: This would be a 60-61 yard field goal if they
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: tried this. Which I don't think so. They're going to
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 2: try to run the ball here. I think they have
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: one timeout left. They have one timeout remaining, 13 seconds.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 2: It's third down and about 18 to go. So they've
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: got a long way.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: They're going to just try and pick up five or
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: six to make it an easier field goal for their
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: place kicker.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're going to run the ball, try to center
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 4: it up, and try to make it a.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: Probably going to be a direct snap here, perhaps, to
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: the tailback. Nope, they're going to pass instead. Pressure coming
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: off the edge, throws that ball out, and incomplete. That
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: brings up fourth down, and this is going to be
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: a really long field goal attempt if they try it.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure they're going to bring the field goal
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: kick team out here with that play, because this is
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: going to be, as you said, Sly, about a 60-yard
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: field goal, and these are not ideal kicking conditions, and
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: they are. They're going to keep the offense out there
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: on fourth down, And 16.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the defense has to be alert for everything.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: It's not necessarily going to be a pass right here.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: They can run a screen. They can run a general
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: run play right here. They might just concede this and
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 2: make it a basic play. Don't just think it's a pass.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: Cyclones one for two on fourth down, and Morgan Scali says, I'll.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 5: Take a timeout.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: This has all of a sudden become a really long
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: first half.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: Long two minutes.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: It was moving along pretty good, and it's slowed down
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: to a snail's pace here over the last two minutes
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: of clock time. It's been more like 15 minutes of
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: game time. And Morgan Scali wants to make sure everybody's
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: on the same page. We'll hear from Morgan Scali momentarily.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss will catch up with him going into the
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: locker room. He's got to be happy with a lot
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: of things right now as his team's up 24-3. He'll
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: be really happy if they're able to get a stop
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: right here.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think this is a great timeout by Morgan Scali.
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 4: It's fourth down and long.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 2: The things that can happen here, screen draw, they're going
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: to be alert to. Make sure you watch because if
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: they make you jump off sides here.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: I'd be a Hail Mary, too. I think you're going
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: to try. Yeah, that's exactly what they're going to try
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: and do. They've got four wide receivers in the pattern.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: This one's going to be a Hail Mary attempt.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: They've still got a timeout.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: Rainer in the shotgun is going to backpedal to pass
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: right now. Plenty of time. Now he's going to step
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: up and throw it long. Looking down the field, it's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: intercepted by Utah and then dropped by Utah.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 8: Oh, man.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: Braden Pagan just got his head slammed to the ground
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: by an Iowa statewide receiver. Pagan was back there. Does
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: he get credit for the interception? I think he does.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: They're going to give him credit for that interception. And
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: Brayden Pagan not only has a touchdown catch today, now
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: he's got an interception too. And that should take us
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: to the end of the first half.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 4: The more you can do right there.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 2: Great job by Brayden Pagan.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: So we've reached the end of the first half. And
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: Utah leads it 24-3. I can tell you this, the
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: Utes are not happy with what just happened on the field.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 5: At the end of the first half.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know Morgan had to have some words for
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: the referee, like what's going on.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: Let's go downstairs to Zach Moss with Morgan Scali.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 6: Coach, you've controlled both sides of the ball, built a
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 6: 24-3 lead. What's the biggest thing you've got to emphasize
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 6: to your team to finish this game out the right way?
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 4: Well, there's four quarters to football, right? You know, they're
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 4: a team that's hungry. We're a team that's hungry.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: Very proud of the O-line, D-line for how we're handling
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 2: the run on both sides of the ball.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 4: Got to keep it up.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you, coach.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: Zach, coach, thank you very much. That sideline update brought
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: to you by Ken Garf. We hear you. Utah scored
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: on the opening play, and they scored on their last
• 1:16:43

• 1:18:48
  Speaker 9: Credit Union Halftime Show. Coming up, the voice of the Utes,
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 9: Bill Riley, and former Utah greats, Utes legends, in fact,
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 9: Stevenson Sylvester and Zach Moss, will bring you the second
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 9: half of Utah and Iowa State from the heartland. This
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 9: is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Utes Sports
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 9: Radio Network.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football brought to you by Pepsi
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: Back at Jack Trice Stadium here in Ames, Iowa. The
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: American First Credit Union halftime show continues on Utah leading
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: at 24-3. I turned around at halftime and we had
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: like 17 people here. The Pepsi crew has made their
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: way to the booth here today. They're great sponsors of
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: Utah Football. Pepsi, you can pick your Pepsi up at Smith's,
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: another great sponsor of Utah Football. You know, I make
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: fun of Dave Spadafore playing injured. We call him Scooter
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: Spadafore right now because he's kind of scooting around. He's
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: got a bad wheel. He had surgery about a month
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: and a half ago. I love the Daves here and
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: the Matts here. They made their way to Ames. Dave
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: gave me a couple of great halftime stats. First of all,
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker's had a great first half slide. He's now
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: got 1,962 career rushing yards, 38 more, and he hits
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: the 2,000 mark for his career. I think you could
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: get that on the first touch of the second half
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: the way he did it in the first half.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, man, this guy is electric, man. Exactly what we needed,
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: and he's so confident. We knew the work that he's
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: put in in offseason. The strength coach said he's most
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: impressed by that guy's offseason work, the way Sean expects
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: so much from himself.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 4: You're seeing it all on display here in the first half.
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: And another spats stat for you. Since 1995, how about this?
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: Since 1995, Braden Pagan is the first Ute.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: With a touchdown, reception, and an interception in the same game.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 4: Since Weddle?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: No, 95. Oh, wow. Yeah, like 10 years before Eric Weddle.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: Weddle never caught one. He ran some in and had
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: some interceptions. Did that against San Diego State. But, yeah,
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: Braden Pagan, he was the one. Not John Uhal. It
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: was offense number seven, not defense number seven that was
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: out there on the last play of the first half.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: And then he got his head slammed in the turf
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: and there was no flag.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a very awkward play.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: I wonder if Marcus Kelly's is getting the refs on
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: that because Iowa State seems like they're doing some extracurriculars
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 2: on every play.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: Let's go downstairs to the third member of our broadcast team,
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: Zach Moss, who usually peeks his head in that locker
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: room at halftime. We only got the one comment from
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: Morgan Scali. What was the vibe in the locker room
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: at halftime, Zach?
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Coach Scali just wanted these guys to absolutely play
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 6: this game and finish this game clean, right?
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 3: You saw the halftime little squirmish there at the end.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 6: So just make sure we kept our mouths closed and
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 6: finish this game the right way and play Utah-style football.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: Well, they're certainly doing that, Zach. Thank you. That sideline
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: update brought to you by our friends at Ken Garf.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: We hear you. If you've ever watched the Little League
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: World Series, you've seen kids sliding down the hill at
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: the Little League World Series in Williamsport, and there's usually
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: a big mudslide at that. Well, they've got that. The
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: only fun anybody's having here today that's wearing an Iowa
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: State shirt are these kids that are sliding down the
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: mud hill because they've had so much rain here. Otherwise,
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: there hasn't been a lot to cheer for for the
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: Iowa State faithful today, have there?
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm a little jealous. I've been actually kind of.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 2: That you don't want to go slide down that thing
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: because that's a big hill right there. If you want
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: to have any fun, you're rolling down that thing.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: Is the opening drive, Sly, Iowa State's going to get
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: the ball out of the locker room. How big is
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: the opening drive for both that Iowa State offense but
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: also the Utah defense if they can get them off
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: the field?
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: Well, I always say that just as many points as
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: you scored or they scored in that half, the other
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: team has the opportunity to do that in the next half, right?
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: So this is very important for the Utah defense to, one,
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: keep that momentum going. Whatever your speech and corrections you
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: made at halftime, implement those and shut them down. If
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 2: you want to kill your opponent mentally, this first drive
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: of the half is what it's all about here and
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: making that happen.
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: So our second half being brought to you by University
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: of Utah Health. Get that same great care the Utes
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: Trust by visiting uofuhealth.org slash Utes. Dylan Curtis will kick
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: it off. He'll kick it right to left as you
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: listen to it as we call it here at Jack
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: Trice Stadium. And Cameron Petaway, who... came in as one
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: of the better kick return men in both the Big
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: 12 and college football, stands in his goal line. He
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: returned one today, took a big hit, and then decided,
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm going to return anymore. We'll
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: see what he does here as the Cyclones find themselves
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: down three touchdowns as we begin the second half. 30
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: minutes of football, down 30 to go on this Saturday
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: afternoon in the Heartland. Thanks for tuning in wherever you
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: may be today. Dylan Curtis puts his right foot to it.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: High and end over end. It's returnable. And Petaway will
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: take it from his five-yard line. He's got the 10
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: and the 15. Petaway to the outside. He's got the 20, 25, 30.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: And finally tackled at the 35-yard line. But a flag
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: comes in late. And this one may come back just
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit. Petaway with a 30-yard return. But I
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 1: have a feeling this one's going to get backed up
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: for either a block in the back or a hold
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: on Iowa State.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: It was a great job by Mate Akihelu going in there.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 5: And During the return, holding, number 53, 10 yards from
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 5: the spot of the foul, first down.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Matiaki Helu, as a.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 2: kickoff guy, you want to stop the forward track right here.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: He knocks out both of the first blockers right there,
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: but definitely see that holding call on that call right there.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: Great call.
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 4: This backs him up to the 18-yard line.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they got Jaden Weaver, the freshman defensive tackle for
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: the hold on that play, so Iowa State will begin
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: instead at their own 35, their own 18-yard line, first
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: down and 10, trailing 24-3. Aiden Floor, the Big 12's
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: leading rusher coming in today, has a grand total of
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: 14 yards on the afternoon. Now I think.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: Well, it wasn't the defensive tackle, but it looks like
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: it was Ethan Stecker, backup freshman linebacker. Either way, Cyclones
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: begin first and 10 at their own 18-yard line, an
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: 82-yard field in front of them to begin the second half.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: Rainer operates out of the shotgun. Two tights and two
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: wides and four of the tailback. Utah with a four-man
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: down front, five near the line of scrimmage. And on
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: first down, Rainer's going to keep it himself, and he's
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: not going to go anywhere. He's stacked up behind the
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: line of scrimmage.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: Excellent work up front by Lance Holtzclaw, by Jai Mo.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: And they drop him for a one-yard loss at the 17.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: Second down and 11 coming up.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 4: Great eyes by Jai Mo.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 2: Normally you want to option the end guy on the
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, but sometimes they want to option the
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: three technique to see if he flows. But Jaimo sees
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: the mesh, the quarterback keeps it, and does exactly what
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 2: we want. If the ball is in Jalen Rayner's hands,
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: that's what we want on defense. We want to make
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 2: him try to beat us today.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: Second down and 11, three receivers spread out to the
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: left-hand side. They motion to back out of the backfield.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: Rayner by himself with a shotgun. Utah going to rush
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: four again on Rayner. He looks to the outside, completes
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: to the outside. He's got it there to his man.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: It's going to be Cody Jackson. Actually, Amari Hayes makes
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: the grab, and they pick up about, call it about
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: seven yards, maybe eight to the 24-yard line. And third
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 1: down and four coming up.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jonah Hall's playing 12 yards off of him right there.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know why you're playing so far off. You
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 2: don't have to. You got speed, Jonah. You don't have
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 2: to respect him that much.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 1: Cyclones have not converted a third down today. They're 0
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 1: for 7. They've got to get four yards to keep
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: this drive alive as we're just underway here in the
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: second half. Flora stays in the ballgame and tailbacks. Two
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: tight ends, two wide receivers here for Iowa State on
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 1: third down. Holtzclaw moving around at the line of scrimmage.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: Rainer to pass over the middle. It's caught by the
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: tight end. Actually, that's going to be the wide receiver,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: Cody Jackson, who picks his way forward and out near
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: the 36 for a first down. That's the first third
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 1: down conversion of the afternoon for Iowa State.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they should have clouded that side. They had
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: a bunch of formation right there, and there's a lot
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: of crossing routes that happen with a bunch of formation.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 2: So you normally cloud that so everybody... Takes the most
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 2: inside guy, and they don't right there. Jonah Hall lets
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: that guy go right into the inside right there and
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 2: pick up that first down.
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: Two minutes gone by. The drive stays alive for the
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: Cyclones from their own 36-yard line. Petaway in the ballgame
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 1: now with tailback. They shift personnel around left to right.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: Rainer in the shotgun surveys the Utah defense. They've got
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: four at the line of scrimmage. Drops to pass again.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: Plenty of time over the middle again. He's got his
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: wide receiver on the crossing route. He's still in play
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: and out near the 50-yard line goes Amari Hayes. I've
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: got to say, he stepped out where? At the 48-yard line.
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 1: That's a pickup of 12 more yards and another first down.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: Jackson Benny in trail coverage pushed him out of bounds.
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to see what Iowa State is trying
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 4: to do here. They're trying to do.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 2: A whole bunch of level routes and natural pick routes
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 2: is what offense kind of calls them right there. And
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: they're trying to get these guys confused and crossed up themselves.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: So they've got to figure that out and who's taking what.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: Rayner now, 14 of 23 for 129 yards and an interception.
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 1: First and 10 just shy of midfield at the Iowa
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: State 48. Hand off, Flora. He's trying the right side,
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: nothing there. He'll lose a yard back to the 47-yard line.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: John O'Hall came up to submarine him with a tackle
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: that time. And they have made life hard today on
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: the Big 12's leading rusher, Aiden Flora.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: As they should. I mean, you're not playing bowling green here.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: You're playing Utah defense right here. And they're flying around
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: and making sure that Aiden Flora does not get loose.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: They gave him the line of scrimmage, and that was generous.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: So second down and 10. Clock continues to run now
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: with 11.40 to play in the third quarter, 24-3 Utah.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: Run game just hasn't been there today for Iowa State.
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 2: Which is great.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: Twins left and right. Four receivers in the pattern on
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: second down and 10. Rainer changing the play now with
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Utah's going to rush four again.
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: He drops back to pass. Surveys the field. Another crossing route.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 1: Nearly intercepted. Oh, and a flag comes in late. I
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: think they're going to get pass interference here. Maybe on
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: Rabbit Evans. We'll see. That looked like pretty good coverage.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: It did.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure if it was a late grab.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 8: Pass interference. Defense number five.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: Spot foul.
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: Was not Rabbit Evans. Correction, it was Bobo Chenault who
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: was in on it. It was a late flag in.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: Spot a foul penalty. It's only about five yards, but
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: it is a first down.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it I don't know. I just saw the replay there.
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 2: It could have gone either way right there. He was
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: a little early.
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: That that ball was catchable. They're never going to call
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: it uncatchable on a route like that, but I don't
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: think he was going to come up with that pass.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: At all.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: What do we have here? We've got a timeout taken
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 1: by who?
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 7: Morgan.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: Maybe Utah.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he wants them to look at something, though.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: Maybe the spot of the football where that penalty was.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure. But he's having the officials come over.
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 1: Morgan Scali is right now to have a conversation.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what you're looking at right there. Oh,
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 2: it was tipped at the line of scrimmage.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. If the ball is tipped, then there's no
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: pass interference. I don't know if that's a reviewable play, though,
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: to see if that ball was tipped. Because if it
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: was tipped, any of the contact after the ball is
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: tipped is allowed.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 4: As you know, Sly.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: Henry Johns turned his mic on for a minute. Let's
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: see if we.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 2: He had to get his thoughts together there.
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: We've got several officials in the booth with us now
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: telling us the ball was tipped as well. So let's
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: see what Henry Johns says.
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 8: Utah's elected to take a timeout. The challenge is really
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 8: on the field.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: Well, what he didn't tell you was they're taking the
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: timeout so they can look at the replay to see
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: if the ball was indeed tipped. Our seven officials here
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: at the booth have said it was indeed tipped. So
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: it should not be pass interference. There's a timeout on
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: the field. We'll take it with them. We'll sort it
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 1: all out.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 1: When we get back, 11-22 to play here in the
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: third quarter for the Big O Tires broadcast booth. It's
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: Utah 24 and Iowa State 3. And this is Utah
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: football from ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Radio Network.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by big
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 7: old tires on ESPN 700 and the youth sports network.
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 1: Well, they came back with the review. The ball was tipped,
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: but they said the contact happened before the tip. So
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: the play on the field stands is called it's pass interference.
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: Utah loses a timeout and loses a challenge. So we
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: were all right, but they said the contact occurred before
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: the ball was tipped. So first down Iowa state just
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: across midfield in Utah territory. Uh, My other broadcast partner, Sly,
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: is listening in today from back in Salt Lake City.
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: The great Sean Mooney is tuned in poolside today with
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: the great Bake and Brew, who are with him today,
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 1: enjoying the call of this game in the sunshine. It's
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: a lot sunnier in Salt Lake than it is here,
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 1: and I might have to get into the pool when
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: I get back home a little bit later on tonight
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: if we get home at a decent hour. A late-night swim?
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 1: A little bit of a late-night swim with Miss Shelley,
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: so we'll see if that happens. First down and 10,
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. At the 47-yard line of Utah with 11.22
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: to play here in the third quarter. Aiden Flohr, the tailback.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: Jalen Rayner, the quarterback. And Iowa State on the move,
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: trying to cut into this Utah lead of 21 points.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: Pass sweep right side.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 7: Nice.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: And they stack him, and then he spins out of it. Oh,
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 1: two people had him. Hall had him first. Nobody wrapped up.
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: And he ends up picking up six yards down to
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: the 41-yard line. They had it read perfectly. They just
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: didn't wrap him up.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jonah's been one of those players that, like, throws
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 2: his body at him and normally knocks guys down. But
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 2: in the linebacker position, you got to wrap him up
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: at the end of the day.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 4: Whether you shoot strings, undershirt, whatever.
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: It is, you got to make sure he doesn't get
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 2: those extra yards because Flora slips through the tackle right
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 2: there and picks up extra yardage.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 1: Second down and four now at the Utah 41. Flora
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: comes out. The backfield now comes back in to the
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: backfield for the left-hand side. From the Utah 41 yard line,
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: Rainer's going to play action pass. Plenty of time to look.
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 1: Down the field, throws it short. Flora all by himself.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: Another bust on Flora out of the backfield and down
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 1: to the Utah 27 yard line he goes. That's a
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: pickup of 14 yards. Nobody had the back out of
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: the backfield that time. And another first down for the Cyclones.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 2: That is just, that's basic Right there, there's nothing special
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 4: Check down route. Somebody's got to.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 2: Pick that up.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: Three receivers split wide to the left-hand side. A tight
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: end to the left slot. First down and 10 from
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: the Utah 26-yard line. Now Iowa State checks with the sideline.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: 10-15 and the clock rolling. Rainer's going to step up
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 1: and change the play with his offensive line. Play clock
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 1: at 10. A lot of movement up front, no whistle,
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 1: and Utah wraps up Aiden Flora after a one-yard game.
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: Did you see a lot of guys moving early there, Sly?
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was more on the defensive side of the ball.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 2: The hard part about that is there's some guy moving
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 2: and some guy's not, so it looks funky, but it
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 2: all depends on when the ball is snapped to.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: Nice tackle by Jai Bowe on that play, a short
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 1: gain of a yard for Aiden Flora, second down and
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: nine coming up. We dip under ten minutes to play
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: here in the third quarter, 24-3 Utes. It's a good
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: drive to begin the second half here for Iowa State,
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: just methodically down the field and keeping that ball away
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 1: from Utah. Cameron Petaway, the tailback of the ball game.
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: Two receivers left, two receivers right on second down and nine.
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 1: Now Petaway motions out. Rainer's going to keep it himself.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: He's got running room. Second level. Rainer drilled at about
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: the 14-yard line after he picks up 11 yards. Sly,
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: there is a big hole in the middle of that
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: Utah defense right now, and Iowa State's exploiting it.
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 2: Well, you have to say that was a great play
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 2: call by Iowa State. They saw something, and they exercised it.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: First down and 10. Into the red zone for the
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: first time today go the Iowa State Cyclones.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 2: That corner over here.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: Three receivers to the right-hand side. Four down linemen. Rainer
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: to pass again. Fires to the outside. Ball is knocked
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 1: down at the line of scrimmage. Lance Holdsclaw gets those
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: big paws up to knock it down. They were trying
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: to get that ball to Dominic Overby. It goes incomplete.
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: And second down coming up.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Atlanta's got to take over this second half. They
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 2: need some leadership to step up. There are some basic
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 2: plays happening right now that definitely should not be happening.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's Iowa State doing anything extravagant. It's
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 2: us not being great on our keys on this drive.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: Second down and 10 from the Utah 14-yard line. Clock
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: stopped with 8.52 to play here in the third quarter.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: Petaway the tailback. He lines up at a pistol behind
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: Jalen Raymond. Utah shifting personnel around up front. They're going
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: to hand it to Petaway out on the edge. He
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 1: squirts through a hole at the eight. He's driven backwards
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: by Johnnie Hall at about the seven-yard line, about three
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: yards shy of first down yardage. Third down coming up.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's going to be about third down and two here.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: You know, Iowa State's got a little bit of momentum here,
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 2: and it's almost two down territory.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: I think it is. You're down 21 points midway through
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: the third quarter. You're probably going for it here if
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 1: you're Iowa State, so Utah's got to be ready for that.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 2: It's been a long drive this far, almost six minutes here.
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: Third down and about three and a half to go
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: here as the clock continues to run. Utah's offense hasn't
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: seen the field yet here in the second half. Rainer
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: lines up for the gun. Barnes is next to him
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 1: to his left. Two tights and two wides as Utah
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 1: crowds the line of scrimmage. Rayner, hands, now keeps out
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: on the edge. He's going to walk it into the
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 1: end zone. Touchdown. That was a great drive by Iowa State.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 1: That was not a great drive by the Utah defense.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: They missed a lot of plays, including the touchdown. And
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: Rayner goes in from eight yards out.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, as I said, just what we said at halftime,
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 2: just as many points as you scored, In that first half,
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: this team can score that in the second half if
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 2: you don't take them seriously here. And there's just a
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 2: few things on that drive right there where this defense
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 2: just wasn't clicking. There's some technique things, responsibility things that
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 2: just were not on point right there.
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: PAT coming up here from Kyle Conradi. He drills it through.
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: On that drive, Iowa State had four chunk plays. They
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: had four chunk plays the entire first half. They had
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: seven first downs. They had seven the entire first half,
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: and they're back in this ballgame. It's a two-score game.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: That scoring drive, 12 plays, 82 yards, and 6.54 off
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 1: the game clock. Eight minutes to play here in the
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: third quarter, and a timeout on the field. For the
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: Big O Tires broadcast booth, it's Utah football, and it's
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 1: 24-10 Utes from ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Radio Network.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Smiths
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 1: Our second half today being brought to you by University
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: of Utah, a health-trusted health care provider for the Utes
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 1: family and yours. Visit them online at uofuhealth.org slash Utes.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 1: Down to the sideline for Zach Moss. Zach, what do
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 1: you got?
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 3: Impressive drive by Iowa State there.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 6: It just made me think about Sly talking about in
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 6: the pregame, you know, this team, it doesn't matter how
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 6: much they're down, they're going to fight.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 3: So they chewed up half of that crop just.
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 1: To come out of that second half.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 3: So let's see how.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: Our youth responded to offense.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 1: Seven minutes gone here, and Utah hasn't had the football yet.
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: Conradi will kick it off, and Daniel Gray is going
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 1: to let it go through the end zone for a touchback.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: And Utah will start first and 10 at the 25-yard line.
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: Offense was terrific for Utah in the first half. They
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 1: scored on four of their five drives, punted once. We'll
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 1: see what Devin Dampier and the Utah offense does here,
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: but it would be nice to answer that scoring drive
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 1: with some points of your own here for Utah.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but this is what we were talking about, complimentary football, right?
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 2: You know, the defense lets up a little bit, lets
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 2: us score. But your offense has to continue to assert
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 2: their dominance. This defense is not good enough to keep
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 2: up with you. So you have to keep being aggressive,
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 2: Kevin McGibbon, and attack these guys.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker out there for Utah. First and ten. They
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 1: bring a man in motion. That's Daniel Bray. They pop
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: past Daniel Bray out on the edge. He gets up
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: the field to the 30 and then drilled at the
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 1: 31-yard line. That was hard running. Brody Miller finally dropped
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 1: him after a six-yard gain. And Utah has second down
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: and four coming up.
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a difficult play right there. Because it feels
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 2: like we leave a guy unblocked every single time, and
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 2: that's what's really hanging up.
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 4: This this fly.
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 1: Sweep way sean parker 38 yards away rushing from 2000
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: in his career second down and four ficklin comes into
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: the backfield for utah they hand that ball to way
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: sean parker he pops through gets to the outside he's
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: got the 35 he's got the 40 45 to the
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 1: outside 50 up the sideline and out of bounds at
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: the iowa state 44 yard line oh that's going to
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 1: be a first down and ivory homes first down he's
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: over 100 for the ball game now oh yeah And
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: he's closing in on that 2,000-yard mark for his career
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: is Wayshon Parker.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, that looks beautiful. Just hand the ball off
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 4: the way. Get out the way.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 1: And they did just that. They mark it out of
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 1: bounds at the Iowa State 44-yard line. That was a
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 1: gain of Wayshon Parker of 25 yards. Parker stays in
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 1: the ballgame. Devin Dampier keeps it himself out on the edge,
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 1: and he is horse-collar tackled down from behind at about
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: the 39-yard line after a 5-yard gain. I'll tell you what,
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 1: Iowa State, they're playing a little rough here today, aren't they?
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 2: Well, they're scrappy, right? They've got to be tough. They've
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 2: got to have a little attitude problem, but that was
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 2: a great first offensive drive-by with State showing that they're
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 2: not giving up, and you can expect that from this team.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 4: That's why you've got to stay aggressive and keep them down.
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 1: Second down and five of the Iowa State 39-yard line.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: Dampier by himself with a shotgun. He'll backpedal to pass. Looking.
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 1: Now he's going to scramble. Looking down the field. He's
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 1: going to go out of bounds and lose a yard.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: Back to the 40-yard line. Good job on coverage down
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: the field by Iowa State. Willich, the linebacker, forced him
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: out of bounds. That's going to bring up third down.
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 1: Might be four-down territory for Utah right here.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 2: I agree. The way this game is going, what you
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 2: need for that defense to even step up and make
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 2: that happen. I would say this is two down territory,
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 2: so don't feel like you have to pick it up. Plus,
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 2: you got a great kicker.
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 1: Utah two out of five on third down. Third down
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: and six. They've got to get to the Iowa State 34.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 1: Crowd back in it here at Jack Trice. Play clock
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: at 10. Parker in the backfield with Dampier. Iowa State
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 1: showing pressure. Here they come. Devon's going to scramble away
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: from it. Try to throw it outside. Throws it incomplete.
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 1: They brought the blitz. He didn't see it from the
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 1: near side. And that force is an incomplete. That's the
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: best defensive stand of the day by Iowa State. Now
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: what will Utah do? Will they punt it or will
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: they go right here? I think they're going to send
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: the punt team out.
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Wow. Pin them down deep right there. That's unfortunate,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 2: but a great job by Iowa State. They came out
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 2: with some energy, exactly what you need. They're not going
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 2: to go away.
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 5: Number 21, Iowa State is now wearing number 57.
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: He ran it so well on that drive that back-to-back
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: incomplete passes. Ryan Phillips on to punt it for Utah.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: Flora stands at his own five-yard line. Phillips kicks it high,
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: and he kicks it end over end. And Flora's going
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: to come up, let it go, and Benny. Oh, goodness,
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 1: it hits off Benny's leg. It goes out of bounds
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: at the half-yard line.
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it'll stop where he touched it at the three-yard line.
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. That ball took a sideways hop, went off
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: Benny's leg, and they're going to mark it out at
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 1: the three-yard line. And that's where Iowa State will take
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 1: over first and ten when we get back. 5.31 to
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: play here in the third quarter in Ames, Iowa. Our

  Speaker 1: the Utes family and yours. Visit them online at uofuhealth.org
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 1: slash Utes. It's Utah 24, Iowa State 10. But Cyclones
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 1: marched down and scored a touchdown on their opening drive
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 1: of the second half. Utah goes out, punts. Now Iowa
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 1: State's got a 96-yard field. They'll mark it at the
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: four-yard line. But it's imperative this Utah defense plays better
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 1: than they did on that last drive slot.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what was gotten into them. Hopefully
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 2: Colton Swan... You know, gave them a little talk in there,
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 2: and they come out with a little better attitude this drive.
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: Four-man down front. Jalen Rayner operating out of his own
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: end zone here on first and ten. Watch the quarterback
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 1: keeper here if you're Iowa State. Rayner drops the pass outside.
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: Ball tipped and nearly intercepted at the goal line. That
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: was almost a pick six by a big guy down there.
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 1: Jai Moe got his hand on it. If he came
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 1: down with it, that would have been six for number 90.
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 2: Jai Moe.
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 4: Great job, but that's what you want to do.
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 2: Air at the line of scrimmage, Cash Dillon, Jai Mo,
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 2: Carson Kafusi down there, causing some pressure, getting their hands
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 2: up in the passing lane. These little five-yard hit routes,
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 2: I don't understand why they're able to get so many
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 2: of those. So this defense has to wake up and
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 2: make sure that that's not a factor for the rest
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 2: of this game.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 1: Second down and 10, Iowa State from their own four-yard line.
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 1: Rainer lines up in the shotgun. Aiden Flora behind him
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 1: in the pistol formation. They bring a receiver across the formation.
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 1: They hand it off to Flora. He's got the second
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 1: level 10, 15 up the sideline, and finally dragged down
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 1: at the Iowa State 23-yard line. That's a gain of 19.
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: There's an offensive lineman down behind the play. Elijah Ellis
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 1: made the tackle for Utah, but Aiden Flora beginning to
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 1: find a little momentum. They held him in check in
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: that first half, but here in the second half, he's
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 1: running it better.
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, here, this is just a good run. It was
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 2: blocked up real well. Aiden Floor found the angle here. Yeah,
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 2: it's just guys missing. Tackles.
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 4: No, they're getting out of the gap.
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 2: Get in your gap. It's confused on the gaps. They're
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 2: getting muddled up, but they're confused on which gap there are.
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 2: The C gap was wide open.
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: Got an injured Iowa State player down. We'll take a timeout.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 1: When we come back, it'll be first and 10 Cyclones
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: from their own 22. Utah 24 and Iowa State 10.

  Speaker 1: Visit the University of Utah campus store or shop online
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 1: at store.uofu.edu. First and ten Cyclones. What's going on with
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 1: the Utah defense here in the second half?
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 4: It's literally mental errors.
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 2: There's little mental errors that are happening and it's causing confusion.
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing about this defense is everybody's not
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 2: doing their job.
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 4: It messes it up for everybody else.
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: Aiden Flora up to 39 yards rushing now on eight carries.
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: First and ten. He's in the backfield as Utah gets
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: up near the line of scrimmage. Toss sweep left side.
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 1: Aiden Flora. He's got running room on the cutback. He's
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: out near the 30, now 31-yard line for a gain
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 1: of nine more. And right now, Iowa State's just out
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 1: physically in Utah at the line of scrimmage.
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, they got rhythm, and they're just going and
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 2: doubling up on things.
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 1: Going with tempo right now. Utah might get caught in subs.
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 1: They do. They throw the flanker pass to the outside.
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: Flags fly. That's going to be 12 men on the
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 1: field for Utah as Iowa State gets it all the
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: way out to the 40-yard line.
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm telling you right now, Marcus Kelly's not going
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 2: to be happy about this. This is just simple things
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 2: that Utah should never have happened.
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 4: Legal substitution.
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 8: Defense. Haley is declined. So the play is.
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 4: The first down.
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 1: Utah not running on and off the field right now.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 1: They're being very lackadaisical. Iowa State caught them right there.
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 1: They picked up nine more in the first down.
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know why Jonah Hawk came back in
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 2: the game. If they didn't substitute, you don't substitute. That's
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 2: a simple rule. But he comes back onto the field
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 2: right there and gets caught. Lackadaisical, as you said.
• 1:47:21
  Speaker 1: Not been a good second half so far for Hall.
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 1: First and 10, Iowa State at their own 40. They've
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 1: got momentum. They're down by 14, but they're driving now.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 1: Iowa State shifting personnel all over the place. Flora the tailback.
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 1: Rainer brings a man in motion. Play action pass. Here
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 1: comes the pressure. He steps up away from it, throws
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 1: it down the field, and it's intercepted. Rabbit Evans comes
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 1: up with it for Utah. Now they're going to say incomplete.
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 1: They're going to say incomplete. They tried to get that
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 1: ball in a wheel route to Aiden Flora. And Rabbit
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 1: Evans was inches, inches away from picking that ball off.
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 2: Oh, man, he was so close on that. It must
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 2: have skipped the ground right there.
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 1: He's down right now.
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because he went down to get it, and he
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 2: must have hit the ground. He might just be knocked
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 2: the wind out of himself. I think he bobbled that, but.
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 1: He may have jammed a shoulder or may have landed
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 1: on the ball and knocked the wind out of himself.
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: He's running off the field. He's okay right now. let's
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 1: see once again on the replay here all right boy
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 1: he's close to holding on to that football rolling on.
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 2: The field let me get three pass yeah hold on
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 2: hold on this is the best angle right here.
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 1: It hits off Flora. It's in the arm. That might
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 1: be an interception. That's very close.
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 2: You can't see that that touched the ground unless they
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 2: got another angle.
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: The problem is they called it incomplete on the field.
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 1: It really looks like Evans cradles this ball.
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 4: But would that be conclusive enough for you.
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 1: To overturn it? That's what I mean. I don't know
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: how conclusive that replay look that we have is.
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 4: He got up like he got it.
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 1: He did. He held it up in the air. Now
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: the referees are looking at this. It would be a
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 1: huge play. It was an excellent read out of the
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 1: secondary by Evans.
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 2: It's what this defense would need on that, right? They
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 2: played that wheel route. They had a couple guys open.
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 2: They had a short guy open right there, but he
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 2: decided to go for the wheel route right there. It's
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 2: almost like Rabbit almost baited him a little bit.
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: That's really close. The Utah defense thinks it's an interception.
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: They're looking at the jumbotron here, but the only view
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: that matters is Henry Johns looking underneath that hood downstairs.
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Fox is supposed to be able to give
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 2: you that live look in.
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 1: We'll see what ends up happening here, but either way,
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 1: Evans made a heck of a play on this ball.
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 2: Yes, he does.
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 4: Yep, doesn't touch the ground. That's under his arm.
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: I don't see it hit the ground.
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 2: That's a catch. I would say that's an interception. That's
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 2: conclusive enough for me to overturn it. But again, we've
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 2: heard crazier things. But for me, I like that. That
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 2: was an amazing play by Rabbit Evans right there.
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they have a look. We haven't
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: seen one yet.
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 2: That second reference saying that there was bobble, but his
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 2: arms are under it, and he controls it before it
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 2: ever touched the ground.
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 1: Again, I don't know that we've seen a look that's
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 1: conclusive that he caught the ball, that it didn't touch
• 1:50:05
  Speaker 1: the ground. And again, the call on the field was incomplete.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: So again, Henry Johns is looking at this with the
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 1: assistance of one of his sidekicks down there. And now
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 1: he's whispering to one of his guys to say, what
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 1: do you think?
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, to me, that's an interception.
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 1: It sure looks like it from the looks we've seen.
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 1: But again, the call on the field was incomplete.
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 4: This would be huge.
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 2: This is huge. This is what this defense needed to
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 2: do by getting off. It was one of the turnovers
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 2: that we talked about in the pregame that needed to
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 2: happen right here.
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 4: But yeah, it doesn't touch the ground.
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 1: Here's the call from the referee.
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 8: After further review, the ruling on the field is upheld.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 8: Incomplete pass. Second down.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 1: I just don't think that they had the right look
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 1: at it. I think from what we saw, it looked
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: like an interception here. But again, I don't know what
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 1: they had downstairs in that monitor. So instead of an
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 1: interception for Utah, it's second down and 10. Iowa State
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 1: at their own 40-yard line.
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 2: Either way, I hope Colton Swann got an opportunity to
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 2: talk to his defense.
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 4: Like, hey, pick it up. Let's go.
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 2: Because they've got to pick it up here in this game.
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 1: Nate Tillman in the ballgame right now. Nate Ritchie also
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: a safety for Utah on second down and 10. Iowa
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 1: State shifting out of an under center. Look back to
• 1:51:15
  Speaker 1: the shotgun here from their own 40-yard line. Jalen Rayner
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 1: with a tailback to his right-hand side, looks to pass.
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: Now he's going to keep it himself, and he is
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 1: going to be dropped in the backfield.
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 8: Jai.
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 1: Jai Moe with another tackle for loss for Utah. That
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 1: went all the way back at the 37-yard line, a
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 1: loss of three. That'll bring up third down and long.
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 1: He got great penetration on that play.
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 2: It's amazing. Morgan said that he was so overlooked in
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 2: the transfer portal. This guy is awesome. He's so quick.
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 2: Because he's so low to the ground, he makes his
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 2: moves so concise.
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 4: And he got right there.
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 2: It was just a simple X-stunt, a tackle-tackle-X-stunt right there.
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 2: He comes around free, which is perfect to kill a
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 2: quarterback draw play.
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 1: Cyclones 2 out of 9 on third down. They face
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 1: a third down and 13 here. They've got to get
• 1:52:01
  Speaker 1: it to midfield. Rainer out of the shotgun will backpedal
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 1: to pass. Looking in the flat, he's got Aiden Flora there,
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 1: whose knee goes down at the 34-yard line. That turf
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 1: gave out underneath his leg, and that goes down as
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 1: a loss, and a loss back at the 34-yard line.
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 1: Two more yards, and Utah's going to get him off
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 1: the field here on fourth down.
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 2: So I know we didn't get the interception, but that
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 2: was huge. I think Colton Swan was able to talk
• 1:52:22
  Speaker 2: to his team. His defense was able to regroup a
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 2: little bit because they played a lot better on those
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 2: three plays.
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 1: Third punt of the afternoon here for Jonah DuPont. Mata
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 1: Carvalho will stand at his own 24-yard line. Haven't seen
• 1:52:35
  Speaker 1: Mata really be able to return much the last couple
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 1: of weeks. See if he has an opportunity right here.
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 1: DuPont's kick is away. It's a wobbler. It's short. Lana's
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 1: going to let it hit, and it kicks out of
• 1:52:45
  Speaker 1: bounds sideways at about the Utah 34-yard line. So good
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 1: starting field position for the Utes with 2.54 to play
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 1: just their second possession here in the second half, leading 24-10.
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is huge. This is the momentum swing
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 2: that we needed to have happen, right? They had a
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 2: great offensive drive to start the second half. Their defense
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 2: did a good job of getting us off the field.
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 2: They were making momentum. Then we get the interception, stop,
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 2: get them to punt here. Offense needs to continue. He
• 1:53:16
  Speaker 2: doubled down on that and played his complimentary football by
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 2: scoring right here on this track.
• 1:53:21
  Speaker 1: LeSean Parker with 167 yards on all purpose today. Comes
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 1: into the backfield with Devin Dampier. He had 159 last
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 1: week against Utah State. Flanker pass to the outside. Ricky
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 1: Johnson's got it. He's going to be dropped after a
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 1: one-yard gain to the 34-yard line. Boy, it looked like
• 1:53:39
  Speaker 1: there was a lot more meat on that bone, but
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 1: Iowa State closed quickly on Ricky, and that's a one-yard gain.
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they did a good job of stopping at the
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 2: point of attack, but Ricky's got to make one guy
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 2: miss right there.
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 4: That was just good angle by the defense right there.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: Second down and nine, Utah. Clock running at 225 to
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 1: play here in the third quarter. 24-10 Utes. Parker in
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 1: the backfield with Dan Peer. Tied into the right slot.
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 1: Three receivers in the formation here for Utah. Devin brings
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 1: Creed Whittemore in motion. Play action pass for Dampier. Lots
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 1: of time out in the flat. He's got a tight end.
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 1: That's Benny wide open. Up the field goes Noah Benny.
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 1: And first down yardage to the Utah 45-yard line. Picked
• 1:54:21
  Speaker 1: up 11 yards, and that's an Ivory Holmes first down.
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 2: Great job by Devin Dampier. Take what the defense gives you.
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 4: Don't try to.
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 2: Force this downfield. Way to step up in the pocket
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 2: right here. Get to your check down. Noah Benny makes
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 2: a guy miss in the open field. Picks up the
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 2: first down. First down and 10. Devin by himself in
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 2: the backfield. They're going to pass again.
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 1: Looking, looking, looking. Nothing there. Devin's going to scramble, throw
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 1: it away, trying to get that ball to Benny. He
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 1: took a big hit at the end of the play, too,
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 1: did Dan Peer. He's asking the official if that was late.
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 1: There was no flag. Second down and 10 coming up.
• 1:54:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is, well, one, he had all day to
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 2: throw right there, but, yeah, that was a little extra
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 2: after the play. Normally they protect the quarterback. But Iowa
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 2: State's been doing that all game. We've talked about that.
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised we haven't seen a little bit
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 1: more of the run game the way Dan Peer and
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: Parker have run it here today.
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 1: Second down and 10 for the 45. Way Sean in
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: the backfield with Devin. Daniel Bray comes in motion. Counter play.
• 1:55:18
  Speaker 1: Way Sean Parker slips and falls at the line of scrimmage.
• 1:55:21
  Speaker 1: He's down right there at the 45. He was trying
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 1: to cut back. If he kept his footing, that could
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 1: have been a big play.
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was going to be a big play right there.
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 2: He got caught up behind his blockers right there, and
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 2: he saw an opening, but this slippery turf right now,
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 2: he's got a lot of chunked up right there and
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 2: got back to the line of scrimmage.
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 1: Mass substitutions here for Iowa State on third down and 10.
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 1: Utah today, two of six on third down. Four receivers
• 1:55:47
  Speaker 1: in the pattern for Utah. Three on the left-hand side.
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 1: Now they motion Parker out. Five of the pattern.
• 1:55:52
  Speaker 2: Watch Brandon Pagan up top.
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 1: Devin Dampier by himself at the shotgun. And that's going
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 1: to be a flag on the right tackle. Cedric Jefferson,
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 1: who moved early. So third down and 10 becomes third
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 1: down and 15. Offense, number 73.
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 5: Five-yard penalty.
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 2: And these are the type of things that we're talking
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 2: about on the road. You're not going to have crowd
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 2: issues on third down and long.
• 1:56:16
  Speaker 4: You know, at home.
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 2: But on the road, you've got to affect that.
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 4: This crowd is starting to get into it.
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 1: Eight penalties, 70 yards now on Utah. Third down and 15.
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 1: Iowa State showing a four-man down front. Empty backfield again.
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 1: Five wide receivers for Utah. Dampier to pass. Pocket holds up.
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 1: Fires to the outside way over the head of Wayshawn Parker.
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 1: And that wouldn't have been even if he completes that ball.
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't have mattered. He would have been 10 yards
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: shy of first down yardage.
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 2: Incomplete.
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 1: It goes. And Utah's penalties hurt them on this drive. Again,
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 1: Iowa State gets them off the field for a second
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 1: time in this half, and the punt team comes back
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 1: out for Utah.
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 5: Utah's changed numbers since they played.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 1: Be very aware of Aiden Flora. We've called his name
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 1: a lot today as a running back. He was the
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 1: best punt returner a year ago in the Big 12 Conference,
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 1: averaging 20 yards a return. Orion Phillips on to punt.
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 1: Kick is away. It's high and spiraling. Flora's going to
• 1:57:20
  Speaker 1: take it at about the 18-yard line and be driven
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 1: backwards and tackled right there. What a tackle on special
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 1: teams by Ciali. And that's exactly where Iowa State will start.
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 1: Ciali made that tackle in an 81-yard field here for
• 1:57:39
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. So the Utah special teams have been good
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 1: today on those coverages.
• 1:57:43
  Speaker 2: Very impressive open field tackle right there. Aiden Flores, as
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 2: you said, very good putt returner. And Ciale does a
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 2: great job of running down there.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 4: He doesn't fair catch. You center him up and you
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 4: take him down.
• 1:57:55
  Speaker 2: Great job by Ciale.
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 1: 30 seconds remain here in the third quarter. 24-10 Utah.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 1: The only points this quarter have come on that touchdown
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 1: drive to begin the quarter by Iowa State. Rainer's going
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 1: to keep it himself out on the edge, and he
• 1:58:09
  Speaker 1: is trying.
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 2: Immediately.
• 1:58:11
  Speaker 1: He had nowhere to go. Utah defensive ends and Jack
• 1:58:14
  Speaker 1: Dex and Benny were there to stop him, and that
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 1: will probably be the final play of the third quarter
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 1: unless Iowa State hurries up here.
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think so.
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 1: Excellent read by Benny on the edge. No gains. Second
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 1: down and 10 coming up as we head toward the
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter here in Ames, Iowa. Our third quarter brought
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 1: to you by KSL. Utah doesn't settle for average, and
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 1: neither does KSL. Visit ksl.com or download their app for
• 1:58:39
  Speaker 1: better news. All built right here in Utah. Go Utes.
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 1: Three quarters in the books. Utah leads by a couple
• 1:58:47
  Speaker 1: of touchdowns here in Ames. We head to the fourth
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 1: quarter next. This is Utah football from ESPN 700 and
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 1: the Utes Sports Radio Network.
• 1:58:55
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Big
• 1:58:58
  Speaker 7: O Tires on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 1: As we head to the fourth quarter here in Ames, Iowa,
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 1: Utah 24 and Iowa State 10. Our second half being
• 1:59:09
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Bamboo HR. Business leaders put your
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 1: people in position to win with Bamboo HR. an official
• 1:59:14
  Speaker 1: partner of Utah Athletics. Third quarter numbers. Iowa State dominated.
• 1:59:18
  Speaker 1: They had almost as many yards in the third quarter
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 1: as they had the entire first half. 107 for Iowa State,
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 1: 52 in the air, 55 on the ground. Utah only
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 1: had 47 yards slide. 18 through the air, 29 on
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 1: the ground. Eight first downs for the Cyclones, two for Utah.
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 1: Utah didn't convert a first down, or a third down,
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 1: I should say. Iowa State converted two, and the Cyclones
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 1: doubled them up on plays, 20 to 10. I don't
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 1: know what's happened.
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 4: This is back-to-back weeks.
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 1: Utah kind of felt like they were a little out
• 1:59:44
  Speaker 1: of rhythm in the second half against Utah State as
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 1: well offensively.
• 1:59:48
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it's more the defense in the second half
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 2: here that I'm more concerned about.
• 1:59:53
  Speaker 4: The offense really.
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, the time of possession in that third quarter,
• 1:59:57
  Speaker 2: I felt like Iowa State really controlled that. Offense really
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 2: had two small possessions, but the defense is just giving
• 2:00:04
  Speaker 2: Iowa State way too much right here, and it's mental errors.
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 2: It's not like Iowa State is just beating them down,
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 2: but these mental errors will get you beat against a
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 2: team like Iowa State. And as I said, you do
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 2: not want to let them into this game. They're only
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 2: down two scores right now, and they can really get
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 2: back into this football game if you allow them to.
• 2:00:23
  Speaker 1: Second and 10 for Iowa State at their own 19-yard
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 1: line as Utah comes back out wearing the all-red uniforms today.
• 2:00:29
  Speaker 1: Iowa State, well, they were white when the game began.
• 2:00:31
  Speaker 1: They're a little more dingy and beige now.
• 2:00:34
  Speaker 2: A little off-white.
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 1: A little off-white right now after all the mud and
• 2:00:37
  Speaker 1: guck and grass got on them here. Jalen Rayner back
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 1: out to begin the fourth quarter trying to get another
• 2:00:42
  Speaker 1: scoring drive here to bring his team even closer to Utah.
• 2:00:46
  Speaker 1: Pet away the back of the backfield. They're going to
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 1: line up in an I formation at least to begin
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 1: things with two tight ends. Utah crowds the line of scrimmage.
• 2:00:55
  Speaker 1: Keep an eye on the play. Action pass. Now they
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 1: shift out of it. An empty backfield. Five pass catchers
• 2:00:59
  Speaker 1: in the formation now for Iowa State. Keep an eye
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 1: on the quarterback run as well. Rainer backpedals to pass.
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 1: Fires to the outside. It's caught there. And that's first
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 1: down yardage. Out beyond the 30 to the 31-yard line
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 1: goes Dominic Overby.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 1: Or was that Petaway? I think it was Petaway the
• 2:01:17
  Speaker 1: back out of the backfield, not Overby.
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 8: Yep.
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 1: Just a little arrow route out. He picks it up.
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 1: Hall was there late.
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's tough man coverage right there.
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 2: You want to keep the receiver as far away from
• 2:01:30
  Speaker 2: the quarterback as possible to make a hard throw, but
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 2: you also don't want to make it that easy either.
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 2: It's just a nice five-yard out. Pitch and catch there
• 2:01:38
  Speaker 2: for Janie Rayner.
• 2:01:38
  Speaker 1: 11 yards and a first down. From the 31-yard line,
• 2:01:44
  Speaker 1: Rayner operating out of the shotgun. Aiden Flora back in
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 1: there with him at tailback. Toss sweep left side. Flora,
• 2:01:51
  Speaker 1: he's going to try and cut to the outside. He's
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 1: going to break a tackle. A missed tackle again by Utah.
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 1: He gets all the way out to the 38-yard line
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 1: for a gain of seven. Trey Reynolds had him, and
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 1: then he lost him, and Flora picks up seven yards.
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Trey had him. He had a great angle right here,
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 2: a good attack, but he lost his eyes. He started
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 2: keeping his eyes way too high and not at the center.
• 2:02:12
  Speaker 1: Second down and four now. They've got to get to
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 1: the 42 for a first down. Iowa State on the move. 13.55
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 1: to play the ball game, 24-10 Utah. Rayner changes the
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 1: play and backs up into the shotgun. He'll pass on
• 2:02:26
  Speaker 1: second down and short. Looking down the field, he's got
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 1: a man out there and incomplete. Oh, and then a
• 2:02:32
  Speaker 1: flag comes in. They're going to call pass interference on
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 1: Bobo Chenault as he was trying to cover Dominic Overby.
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 2: He called the receiver out of bounds. He threw his
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 2: hat off and the receiver went out of bounds.
• 2:02:44
  Speaker 8: Pass interference. Defense number five.
• 2:02:49
  Speaker 1: Did he throw his hat by accident instead of throwing
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 1: his flag? I don't know what that is, because if
• 2:02:53
  Speaker 1: you're out of bounds, you can't be interfered with.
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 1: The hat came first, then the flag came second.
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying, because he stepped out, and
• 2:03:02
  Speaker 2: then whatever contact.
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 1: Happens, 15-yard penalty. They'll mark it at the Utah 47-yard line.
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 1: Utah defense. Got to make a play. Is on its
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 1: heels right now.
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 4: They got to step up.
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know what is going on with the defense here,
• 2:03:13
  Speaker 2: but they need a big play here.
• 2:03:14
  Speaker 4: Hopefully, Carson Kifusi can get back there.
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 1: Two tights and two wides on first and 10 for
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 1: the Utah 47 for Rayner. He's going to change the
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 1: play at the line of scrimmage. Rayner, handoff. Flora trying
• 2:03:27
  Speaker 1: to cut back, and he's wrapped up. Well, he pushes
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 1: forward and picks up three yards. He's a tough guy
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 1: to bring down. From the 47 to the 44-yard line
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 1: and a gain of three yards on the play. Tackle
• 2:03:38
  Speaker 1: on the play by Trey Reynolds and a bunch of
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 1: other youths. Second down and seven coming up.
• 2:03:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a guy I don't want to see get going.
• 2:03:45
  Speaker 1: He's already gotten going down here in the second half.
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 4: He's starting to feel himself a little bit here in
• 2:03:49
  Speaker 4: the second half.
• 2:03:49
  Speaker 1: He's got 50 yards rushing here in the second half.
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 1: He had four at halftime. Utah's got to find a
• 2:03:56
  Speaker 1: way to get Iowa State off the field here. Two
• 2:04:00
  Speaker 1: receivers to the right, one to the left-hand side. Now
• 2:04:02
  Speaker 1: they'll move everybody out of the backfield. Five receivers in
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 1: the formation here. Jalen Rayner stands in the shotgun. Backpedals
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 1: to pass, looking to his right, throwing and batted away
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 1: by Hall. Almost intercepted by Johnnie Hall as he tried
• 2:04:15
  Speaker 1: to squeeze that ball into Amari Hayes. Incomplete third down
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 1: coming up.
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 2: But that's Jonah Hall. He's been getting that same route
• 2:04:22
  Speaker 2: every single time he's been playing off of it. There
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 2: he plays a little tighter, and he's able to get
• 2:04:27
  Speaker 2: his hand in the passing lane and almost intercept it.
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 2: That would have been a great big six if he
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 2: could have got it. But great job by Jonah Hall
• 2:04:33
  Speaker 2: at adjusting to the look that you've been seeing. They
• 2:04:35
  Speaker 2: give cover, too, and he's doing a nice little out route.
• 2:04:39
  Speaker 1: Iowa State, two out of ten on third down this afternoon.
• 2:04:42
  Speaker 1: They've converted two third downs here in the second half.
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 1: Spread the field with four wide receivers from the Utah
• 2:04:49
  Speaker 1: 44-yard line. Pedal with the back out of the backfield.
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 1: Utah rushing just four now. Plenty of time for Rayner.
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 1: He's going to step up and try to run. There
• 2:04:57
  Speaker 1: goes Jalen Rayner. He's got first down yardage all the
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 1: way to the Utah 32-yard line. The middle of the
• 2:05:04
  Speaker 1: field wide open again. And a 12-yard gain and a
• 2:05:07
  Speaker 1: first down for the Cyclones.
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very unfortunate. It was good coverage on the
• 2:05:13
  Speaker 2: back end, so everybody was covered. That's just something that
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 2: the front four has to handle, and whatever games that
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 2: they were running up front just allowed a big hole
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 2: in the middle.
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 1: First down at the Utah 32 as we dip into
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 1: 12-20 to play in the clock running here in the
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Full house backfield here for the Cyclones. Let's
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 1: see if they shift out of it. Play clock at
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 1: 10 for Rainer. They do shift out of it. That's
• 2:05:37
  Speaker 1: got to be a flag. They had somebody moving forward
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 1: on the play. Aiden Flora is tackled behind the line
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 1: of scrimmage by Trey Reynolds. All the way back, they'll
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 1: give him progress to the 34-yard line. That'll be a
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 1: loss of two.
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 2: Great job by Cash Dillon at the initial penetration right there,
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 2: cutting off the north and south by Adrian Flora, making
• 2:05:55
  Speaker 2: him go sideways, and Trey Reynolds cleaned him up.
• 2:05:58
  Speaker 1: Looked like one of the backs was moving forward at
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 1: the snap there. Canadian football-like right there, but Utah ends
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 1: up getting the tackle for loss anyway, and it's second
• 2:06:06
  Speaker 1: down and 12.
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 2: To be real, Iowa State's been doing that all game,
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 2: and they haven't called it, so that must be normal.
• 2:06:12
  Speaker 1: Three receivers in the pattern. Petaway in the backfield with
• 2:06:15
  Speaker 1: Flora on second down and 12. Utah showing pressure, and
• 2:06:21
  Speaker 1: here they come. Rayner to pass, stepping, throwing behind his man.
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 1: He fired a bullet. Tried to get that to Amari
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 1: Hayes at about the 34-yard line. He was well covered
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 1: by Hall again, and it goes incomplete. Third down and
• 2:06:33
  Speaker 1: long coming up.
• 2:06:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Utah's doing a good job, but again, third down
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 2: is where you need to live, and here's the thing.
• 2:06:40
  Speaker 2: You're going to go sub-package defense right here. You're going
• 2:06:43
  Speaker 2: to bring some heat. Don't let Jalen Rayner have all
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 2: day to throw.
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 1: Might be two down territory here. There's not a lot
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 1: of time left. You're down 14 points. I'm not sure
• 2:06:51
  Speaker 1: if Iowa State's going to kick a field goal. They
• 2:06:54
  Speaker 1: might try to get some yardage here, and we'll see
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 1: what they do. It's fourth down. Make it third down
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 1: and 12. Three of 11 today on third down. Rayner's
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 1: going to pass. Looking out in the flat. Nearly intercepted.
• 2:07:05
  Speaker 1: Knocked down by Lance Holdsclaw.
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 2: They say it was a backward pass.
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 1: That's a sideways pass. And scooping it up and running
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 1: it into the end zone for Utah. Is that a
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 1: touchdown for Jackson Benny?
• 2:07:17
  Speaker 2: He called it a backwards pass. It's a touchdown.
• 2:07:21
  Speaker 1: It's a touchdown. That was indeed a backwards pass. Batted
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 1: down by Lance Holtzclaw. Let's see. That does look like
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 1: it's behind the line of scrimmage. It was picked up
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 1: by Jackson Benny and scooped up and scored. And they're
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 1: going to review this for sure. It's a scoring play.
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 1: There's no doubt they're going to look at it. Do
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 1: you think it was backwards?
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 9: No.
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 2:07:45
  Speaker 8: After further review, pass is forward and incomplete. Fourth down.
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah. But the ref is great for not calling.
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 1: That is the way you're taught to officiate it. If
• 2:07:58
  Speaker 1: there's any doubt, you do not blow the whistle. You
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 1: let the play go. That's why you've got instant replay.
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 1: They saw it. It was not a backwards pass, so
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 1: it'll be fourth down coming up here for Iowa State.
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 1: Fourth down, and we'll call it about 12. Let's see. Yeah,
• 2:08:11
  Speaker 1: it went forward.
• 2:08:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 2: But the ref didn't have the angle to see it,
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 2: so it's great by him by not calling it and
• 2:08:16
  Speaker 2: letting that play live.
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 1: And a heads-up play. By Jackson Benny. Yep. Scoop it
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 1: up and run it in until you hear the whistle.
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 1: You play to the whistle, and that's what they did.
• 2:08:24
  Speaker 1: Now what are we going to get here?
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 2: Fourth down here.
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 1: They're going to bring the field.
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 9: No.
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 1: They're going to bring the offense back out on fourth
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 1: down and 12.
• 2:08:30
  Speaker 4: You said it's two down territory.
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 1: It's two down territory. There's 11-14 left, and they're just
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 1: playing the numbers in the time game here.
• 2:08:36
  Speaker 2: So watch that slot fade. They've been running that a lot.
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 1: Iowa State today one for three on fourth down. Out
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 1: of the shotgun, Jalen Rayner. Now he's going to kill it.
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 1: And go back to his original play. Back paddles to pass.
• 2:08:52
  Speaker 1: Rayner surveying the field. Throws to the outside. It's caught.
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 1: And that's, is it a first down?
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 2:08:57
  Speaker 1: Is it a first down? I don't think it is.
• 2:09:00
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a yard shy of
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 1: the first down. He reached for the sticks.
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 1: But I think he came up about a yard shy.
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 1: Dominic Overby.
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 4: If they review it, he reached over.
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 5: He did?
• 2:09:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:09:10
  Speaker 1: Well, you know they're going to review this.
• 2:09:11
  Speaker 2: They have to review it because if they don't, then
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 2: it's turnover on downs.
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 8: Ruler on the field. He's made a pass. Short of
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 8: line again.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 1: No, we'll watch it on the replay here to see it.
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 1: Let's see. It's very close. It's very close. It's very close.
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 8: On the TV, it's very close.
• 2:09:33
  Speaker 1: It's very close. Yes, it's... It is very... It was
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 1: a heck of an effort by Overby to reach that football.
• 2:09:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure why he was as open as he was.
• 2:09:42
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, these hitch routes... On the ISO side,
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 2: they've been throwing it all game. If I'm on the
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 2: ISO side and defending, whether you're linebacker or corner, you've
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 2: got to cover that. You've got to make some kind
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 2: of adjustment.
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 1: There's a timeout on the field. We'll take it and
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 1: tell you what the result of the replay is when
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 1: we get back. 24-10 Utah, 11.04 to play. And this
• 2:10:05
  Speaker 1: is Utah football from ESPN 700 and the Utah Sports
• 2:10:08
  Speaker 1: Radio Network.
• 2:10:10
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Smiths
• 2:10:13
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 1: Back at Jack Trice Stadium, we're still waiting on the
• 2:10:19
  Speaker 1: official review and the decision by the official, Henry Johns.
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 1: He's been looking at this for a long, long time,
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 1: and I think he's going to give us his call
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 1: right here. I thought he looked short, but he's reviewing
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 1: right in front of the Iowa State bench.
• 2:10:39
  Speaker 2: Let's see if he's going to give us something to
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 2: say here.
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 5: After further review, the runner was down with his elbow
• 2:10:48
  Speaker 5: and the ball in the middle of the 22-yard line.
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 5: We're going to put it here, and we're going to measure.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 1: What? Okay, they're going to have to bring the sticks
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 1: all the way across the field.
• 2:10:59
  Speaker 4: The 22-yard line is the first down marker.
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 1: But where at the 22 exactly is it? They're going
• 2:11:05
  Speaker 1: to move these sticks. The sticks are on the Utah
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 1: side of midfield, so they're going to have to bring
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: them all the way across the field to get this measurement.
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 1: And we've got the whole Iowa State team covering up
• 2:11:17
  Speaker 1: the ball here, so we can't really see.
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, they're holding hands. They're praying right now.
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 1: I've got my eye on the ball. My bird's eye view,
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 1: I thought he was just a little short.
• 2:11:28
  Speaker 4: That measurement looks like he's got it.
• 2:11:32
  Speaker 2: Let's see here.
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 3: Tell me when you're down.
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 2: Wow, this is intense.
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 1: It's a first down. He got it by the nose
• 2:11:42
  Speaker 1: of the football, and the Iowa State drive stays alive.
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 1: Utah played soft coverage on that play and allowed Rainer
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 1: to complete that pass. And Dominic Overby made a heck
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 1: of a stretch to get that ball just inches across
• 2:11:55
  Speaker 1: the line and keep this drive alive. That's a first down.
• 2:11:58
  Speaker 1: And now they have it on the edge of the
• 2:12:00
  Speaker 1: red zone at the 22-yard line of Utah with 11.04
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 1: to play here in the ballgame. Still 24-10 Utah, but
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 1: Utah has done nothing offensively here in the second half,
• 2:12:09
  Speaker 1: and Iowa State has dominated both possession and time of
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 1: possession here. Two receivers right, full house backfield for Rayner.
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 1: He's got Aiden Flora as his tailback. Now they're going
• 2:12:22
  Speaker 1: to shift personnel. Flora comes to his side, two tight
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 1: ends in the left slot. There is nobody in the
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 1: middle of the field right now for Utah. Rayner to pass.
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 1: Pressure in his face. Throwing to fade. He's got a
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 1: man wide open. Touchdown. Scooby Davis was cooked on the
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 1: far sideline. And Dominic Overby came down with it. And
• 2:12:44
  Speaker 1: the Cyclones have now scored 14 unanswered here in the
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 1: second half. And they're back within a touchdown after this PAT.
• 2:12:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he definitely was right there.
• 2:12:54
  Speaker 4: It's a great double move right here. Slant and go, yeah.
• 2:12:58
  Speaker 1: A little sluggo for the touchdown. Scooby bit on it.
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 1: And that's an easy touchdown for Dominic Overby, his first
• 2:13:06
  Speaker 1: of the year. And if you thought this Iowa State
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 1: football team was going to go away quietly, my friends,
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 1: you were wrong about that. They're right back in at
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 1: down seven with plenty of time to play here at Ames. 10.48
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 1: to play the ball game. Our second half brought to
• 2:13:21
  Speaker 1: you by University of Utah Health and Sports Medicine. Because
• 2:13:24
  Speaker 1: you belong back in the game as much as anyone.
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 1: Visit them online at sportsmed.uofuhealth.org. We've got a ball game
• 2:13:30
  Speaker 1: here in Ames with 10.48 to play. It's a seven-point game.
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 1: Utah 24, Iowa State 17. And this is Utah football
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 1: from ESPN 700 and the Youth Sports Radio Network.
• 2:14:04
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football, brought to you by Bamboo
• 2:14:08
  Speaker 7: HR on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 2:14:13
  Speaker 1: Utah led this game 24-3 at the half. They were
• 2:14:16
  Speaker 1: in total control. They've gone quiet offensively in the second half,
• 2:14:21
  Speaker 1: and they've allowed a lot of yardage here in the
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 1: second half to Iowa State. More than 200 yards of
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 1: offense for the Cyclones here in the second half, and
• 2:14:28
  Speaker 1: they're back within seven with plenty of time to play, 10.48
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 1: to play.
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 2: Zach Moss.
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 1: What's Utah got to do to get the offense back
• 2:14:35
  Speaker 1: on track?
• 2:14:36
  Speaker 6: They got to put a draw together right here. It
• 2:14:38
  Speaker 6: doesn't matter if it comes out of here with three
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 6: points or zero points, but they got to put a
• 2:14:42
  Speaker 6: draw together to sustain something for this defense to take
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 6: a break because momentum has definitely shifted down here.
• 2:14:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, you can feel it here at Jack Trice Stadium.
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 1: They were blasting the killers there at the end of
• 2:14:53
  Speaker 1: the last drive. Daniel Bray is going to bring it out.
• 2:14:56
  Speaker 1: Daniel Bray from the 5 to the 10. Daniel Bray
• 2:14:59
  Speaker 1: to the 20. What was Daniel Bray doing? He was
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 1: three yards deep in the end zone.
• 2:15:05
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of beside myself right now because there's just
• 2:15:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of things going on that you.
• 2:15:11
  Speaker 4: Don't normally see.
• 2:15:11
  Speaker 2: Daniel Bray doesn't really bring a lot of balls, especially
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 2: if it's two, three yards deep in the end zone.
• 2:15:16
  Speaker 1: Big drive here for Devin Dampier and the Utah offense.
• 2:15:20
  Speaker 1: They have been silent here in the second half. Dampier out,
• 2:15:25
  Speaker 1: Wayshon Parker with him. Might be a good idea to
• 2:15:27
  Speaker 1: get Wayshon Parker back in and ball. We haven't seen
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 1: Bird Ficklin here in the second half either for Utah.
• 2:15:33
  Speaker 1: It's loud now here at Jack Trice. Bray comes in motion.
• 2:15:37
  Speaker 1: Play action pass. Dampier scrambling, looking. Has a man wide
• 2:15:41
  Speaker 1: open down the field. Pagan catches and drops it at
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 1: the 50-yard line. Well, that was awfully close to pass interference.
• 2:15:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but the pass was just a little short.
• 2:15:50
  Speaker 1: Well, he was under pressure, but that hit him in
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 1: the breadbasket.
• 2:15:53
  Speaker 2: If he was able to set his feet and deliver
• 2:15:55
  Speaker 2: the football right there, that would have been a touchdown
• 2:15:56
  Speaker 2: for Brandon Pagan.
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 4: But the ball was short. Defender was able to get
• 2:15:59
  Speaker 4: back in it.
• 2:16:01
  Speaker 1: Incomplete, so second down and 10. There was a lot
• 2:16:03
  Speaker 1: of pressure on Devin Dampier that time. And again, it
• 2:16:07
  Speaker 1: gets loud here at Jack Trice Stadium. 10.37 to play,
• 2:16:12
  Speaker 1: second down and 10. Parker and four receivers. Now they
• 2:16:16
  Speaker 1: motion Wayshon out. Devin fires, nearly intercepted. Oh, goodness. Slemkin,
• 2:16:24
  Speaker 1: the middle linebacker, nearly came up with a pick at
• 2:16:25
  Speaker 1: the 22-yard line. Now it's third down and 10. Why
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 1: are you not running the football with Wayshon Parker?
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 4: I wish I was calling plays, Bill.
• 2:16:37
  Speaker 1: Third down and 10. Now it's really loud. Utah 2
• 2:16:40
  Speaker 1: for 7 on third down. They haven't converted a third
• 2:16:44
  Speaker 1: down this half. They're 0 for 2. This place is rocking.
• 2:16:50
  Speaker 1: Three receivers for Dampier. Iowa State's going to bring pressure.
• 2:16:54
  Speaker 1: Here they come with six. Devin looking. Taking a shot
• 2:16:58
  Speaker 1: down the field again. Where's he throwing it? He took
• 2:17:02
  Speaker 1: a big hit, and that's a late hit, and that's
• 2:17:03
  Speaker 1: going to be 15 yards on Iowa State. He threw
• 2:17:06
  Speaker 1: it to nobody. Pagan was the closest guy 20 yards away,
• 2:17:09
  Speaker 1: but this is going to be roughing the passer on
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. Which, I mean, they.
• 2:17:13
  Speaker 2: Personal foul.
• 2:17:14
  Speaker 8: Roughing the passer. Defense. 15-yard penalty. 195.
• 2:17:19
  Speaker 1: Jace Gilbert, they've been hitting Devin pretty late so far today,
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 1: and this is going to be 15 yards, and that's
• 2:17:24
  Speaker 1: just a silly penalty by the Cyclones.
• 2:17:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, yeah, to the Cyclones' credit, they've been
• 2:17:29
  Speaker 2: doing that all day, and it hasn't been called. So,
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 2: but called here, good moment. Now, Bill, run the football
• 2:17:36
  Speaker 2: with LeSean Parker.
• 2:17:37
  Speaker 1: Maybe so.
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 1: Out it goes to the 30-yard line. Handoff, Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:17:44
  Speaker 1: He's got a hole, 35. Steps out of a tackle, 38,
• 2:17:47
  Speaker 1: 39-yard line. And a pickup of nine on first down
• 2:17:50
  Speaker 1: for Wayshawn Parker. He's now at 126 yards on the afternoon.
• 2:17:55
  Speaker 1: And if my math is right, he's four yards shy
• 2:17:58
  Speaker 1: of 2,000 for his career. Sometimes math is hard, but
• 2:18:03
  Speaker 1: it's not when you've got a good statsman like Dave Spadafore.
• 2:18:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Bill.
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 4: You're mathing today.
• 2:18:08
  Speaker 1: Ten minutes exactly to play in the ballgame. Second down
• 2:18:10
  Speaker 1: and one for Utah at their own 39. Ray and
• 2:18:14
  Speaker 1: Parker in the backfield. Dampier in the shotgun. Two tight ends.
• 2:18:21
  Speaker 1: Pagan by himself on the outside. Let's see if they
• 2:18:23
  Speaker 1: take a deep shot here. Orbit motion. Over the middle,
• 2:18:29
  Speaker 1: they fire. Ball incomplete. Deflected at the line of scrimmage.
• 2:18:33
  Speaker 1: They were trying to get that ball to Pagan down
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 1: the field. Iowa State's trying to say they came up
• 2:18:38
  Speaker 1: with a football. I don't think they did. There's an
• 2:18:47
  Speaker 1: injured Sycone player down on the field right now, too,
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 1: with 9.39 to play.
• 2:18:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know what they're talking about coming up with
• 2:18:54
  Speaker 2: a football, but you just got to run the ball here.
• 2:18:56
  Speaker 4: Control the clock by.
• 2:18:57
  Speaker 1: Running the football. So second down and one becomes third
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 1: down and one as we've got a timeout on the field.
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 1: We're going to keep it right here, I think, for now.
• 2:19:07
  Speaker 1: As they look at the injured cyclone player, it's Caden Crawford,
• 2:19:11
  Speaker 1: the defensive end, who's down. They were really trying to
• 2:19:14
  Speaker 1: force that ball down the field to Braden Pagan.
• 2:19:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, the problem is that was the RPO, so
• 2:19:21
  Speaker 2: the offensive linemen were downfield. He couldn't hold the ball
• 2:19:24
  Speaker 2: any longer than he did. If he did, Braden Pagan
• 2:19:27
  Speaker 2: was open, but it would have been offensive linemen downfield.
• 2:19:31
  Speaker 1: So third down and one.
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 2: Third down and like half a yard.
• 2:19:34
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker got nine yards on that last touch.
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 4: On first down.
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 2: He got nine yards on first down. Give them the
• 2:19:40
  Speaker 2: ball because you're trying to control the clock.
• 2:19:42
  Speaker 4: I don't understand where we're going with this.
• 2:19:44
  Speaker 1: So Gilbert not putting any weight on that leg. Actually,
• 2:19:47
  Speaker 1: I should say Crawford not putting any weight on that leg,
• 2:19:49
  Speaker 1: walking off the field here with help. And Utah will
• 2:19:52
  Speaker 1: have third down and one. They're two for seven on
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 1: third down. They didn't convert the last third down, but
• 2:19:57
  Speaker 1: the penalty got them the first down. So Parker and Dampier.
• 2:20:06
  Speaker 1: Two tight ends on the right side. And two wide
• 2:20:11
  Speaker 1: receivers for Utah. Got to get to the 40-yard line.
• 2:20:15
  Speaker 4: They're going zero.
• 2:20:18
  Speaker 1: They bring a man in motion. Iowa State shoots that gap.
• 2:20:22
  Speaker 1: Way Sean Parker doesn't get there. He's stopped at the
• 2:20:25
  Speaker 1: 39-yard line. I just... Great surge up front by Iowa State.
• 2:20:31
  Speaker 1: And fourth down coming up. They're going to bring the
• 2:20:33
  Speaker 1: punt team out here and give it back to Iowa
• 2:20:35
  Speaker 1: State again.
• 2:20:36
  Speaker 2: That needs to be Devin Dampier at the line of scrimmage.
• 2:20:39
  Speaker 2: You saw zero. I saw zero. You saw zero.
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 4: The blitz was coming to the side that you're running
• 2:20:47
  Speaker 4: the ball. You have to check out of that.
• 2:20:49
  Speaker 2: You had enough time to check out of that to
• 2:20:51
  Speaker 2: give you something. But this is why you should have
• 2:20:55
  Speaker 2: ran right after he got the first down.
• 2:20:57
  Speaker 1: Instead, it's fourth down. Orion Phillips on the punt. Good snap.
• 2:21:04
  Speaker 1: Good kick. High and wobbly. Not Aiden Flora this time,
• 2:21:08
  Speaker 1: but instead fair caught at the 26-yard line. A short kick.
• 2:21:12
  Speaker 1: Amari Hayes, 36 yards was all that punt was. And
• 2:21:17
  Speaker 1: now Iowa State, with all the momentum, has the ball
• 2:21:20
  Speaker 1: back with 8.50 to play. Timeout on the field. It's
• 2:21:23
  Speaker 1: getting tight and late here in Ames.
• 2:21:26
  Speaker 4: 24-17 Utah.
• 2:21:27
  Speaker 1: And this is Utah football from ESPN 700, the Ute
• 2:21:30
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network.
• 2:21:31
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah football brought to you by Pepsi
• 2:21:35
  Speaker 7: on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 2:21:41
  Speaker 1: Back at Jack Trice Stadium, an overcast Saturday. Utah was
• 2:21:45
  Speaker 1: rolling and in control at halftime up 24-3. Iowa State
• 2:21:50
  Speaker 1: has scored 14 here in the second half. Utah has nothing.
• 2:21:53
  Speaker 1: In fact, Utah's got less than 75 yards here in
• 2:21:55
  Speaker 1: the second half. Cyclones are rolling. They've got the ball
• 2:21:59
  Speaker 1: back now at their own 26-yard line. trailing 24-17 and
• 2:22:03
  Speaker 1: 8-50 to play in the ballgame. Needless to say, Utah
• 2:22:06
  Speaker 1: defense got to find a way to get them off
• 2:22:08
  Speaker 1: the field.
• 2:22:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they have to. Playmakers got to make plays. They
• 2:22:11
  Speaker 2: got enough playmakers on this defense. Jackson Binney, Nate Ritchie,
• 2:22:15
  Speaker 2: Rabbit Evans in the back end right there. Elijah Reed's
• 2:22:18
  Speaker 2: got to step up, right? You know, Elijah Davis has
• 2:22:23
  Speaker 2: to step up. Getting burnt on that sluggo route. I just,
• 2:22:28
  Speaker 2: there's just a lot of things that you're not typically
• 2:22:30
  Speaker 2: seeing the Utah defense bite on or have issue with.
• 2:22:34
  Speaker 2: They're having issues with only in the second half. The
• 2:22:36
  Speaker 2: first half, they look great.
• 2:22:37
  Speaker 1: By the way, adversity for the first time this season.
• 2:22:39
  Speaker 1: Utah's on the road. They haven't played a close game yet.
• 2:22:42
  Speaker 1: Now they're in a tight game. You got to see
• 2:22:44
  Speaker 1: how they're reacting. The Utah offense has really not done
• 2:22:47
  Speaker 1: much here. They're 0 for the second half. What can
• 2:22:49
  Speaker 1: the defense do here? For me, it's turnovers, but it's
• 2:22:53
  Speaker 1: opportunistic turnovers. It's you having to force the issue.
• 2:22:57
  Speaker 2: Punching the ball out, having the mindset of wanting to
• 2:23:00
  Speaker 2: punch the ball out, getting the interception, making great plays.
• 2:23:04
  Speaker 2: The defensive line, Jai Mo, Carson Kapusi, stepping up, making
• 2:23:08
  Speaker 2: sure that Jalen Rayner doesn't have running lanes, keep those
• 2:23:11
  Speaker 2: passing lanes, knocking the ball down. Tip passes. You've got
• 2:23:15
  Speaker 2: to have a tip pass and get an interception off
• 2:23:18
  Speaker 2: of it.
• 2:23:19
  Speaker 4: You've got to be opportunistic on defense here.
• 2:23:21
  Speaker 1: Defense coming out, brought to you by our friends at doTERRA.
• 2:23:24
  Speaker 1: We'll actually mark it at the 27 here, so a
• 2:23:27
  Speaker 1: 73-yard field for Jalen Rayner. And the Iowa State Cyclones
• 2:23:32
  Speaker 1: trailing 24-17 with 8.50 to play in the ballgame. Iowa
• 2:23:35
  Speaker 1: State with all three timeouts remaining. They open a pistol formation.
• 2:23:38
  Speaker 1: A couple of tight ends, a couple of wide receivers here.
• 2:23:40
  Speaker 1: Now they bring a tight end in motion. They're going
• 2:23:42
  Speaker 1: to hand that ball to Flora, who cuts back, and
• 2:23:45
  Speaker 1: he's dropped immediately behind the line of scrimmage. Excellent work
• 2:23:48
  Speaker 1: right there by Trey Reynolds. One-yard loss, second down and
• 2:23:52
  Speaker 1: 11 coming up.
• 2:23:52
  Speaker 2: That's a great job by Jaimo right there. Great job
• 2:23:55
  Speaker 2: with penetration, cutting off that forward track.
• 2:23:57
  Speaker 1: Empty backfield now on second down at 11. Rayner stands
• 2:24:00
  Speaker 1: by himself in the shotgun. He's going to backpedal to pass.
• 2:24:03
  Speaker 1: Looping rush comes. Jalen Rayner looking to escape it and
• 2:24:06
  Speaker 1: now taking a shot down the field. That ball is
• 2:24:09
  Speaker 1: up and overthrown. Excellent coverage out there by Jackson Benny
• 2:24:12
  Speaker 1: as he was on Dominic Overby. That'll bring up third
• 2:24:14
  Speaker 1: down and long here for the Cyclones.
• 2:24:17
  Speaker 2: He's an outstanding defender, outstanding ISO defender, putting him on
• 2:24:20
  Speaker 2: an island. Being that slot defender, it's so hard to do.
• 2:24:24
  Speaker 2: One of the hardest positions in football. Jackson Benny does
• 2:24:27
  Speaker 2: it extremely well.
• 2:24:29
  Speaker 1: So the Cyclones, 3 of 12 on third down. They
• 2:24:32
  Speaker 1: have 3 of 5 here in the second half. They
• 2:24:35
  Speaker 1: face a third down and 11. Utah's not been great
• 2:24:38
  Speaker 1: on third down here in the second half. Let's see
• 2:24:40
  Speaker 1: if they can get the clones off the field. Aiden
• 2:24:42
  Speaker 1: Flora in the backfield. Four wide receivers in the pattern
• 2:24:45
  Speaker 1: here for Jalen Rayner. Utah bringing pressure right up the gut.
• 2:24:50
  Speaker 1: Rainer scrambling and looking down the field. He is being chased,
• 2:24:53
  Speaker 1: and he is going to be dropped all the way
• 2:24:57
  Speaker 1: back at the 23-yard line. That is a Utah sack
• 2:25:01
  Speaker 1: and an outstanding play by Elijah Ellis, his second sack
• 2:25:05
  Speaker 1: on the year for the redshirt freshman, Ellis. And the
• 2:25:09
  Speaker 1: Utah defense forces a three and out as the clock
• 2:25:12
  Speaker 1: dips under eight minutes to play.
• 2:25:14
  Speaker 2: Great play by Elijah. It felt like forever to get
• 2:25:16
  Speaker 2: him down there, though. But great blitz, great call by
• 2:25:20
  Speaker 2: Colton Swan right there, bringing the pressure.
• 2:25:23
  Speaker 4: Jalen Rayner was not able to pick that up.
• 2:25:25
  Speaker 1: Tomada Carvalho stands at his own 33-yard line. And Jonah
• 2:25:30
  Speaker 1: DuPont comes on to punt. Haven't seen him much here
• 2:25:32
  Speaker 1: in the second half. High snap, no pressure. Kick is away.
• 2:25:36
  Speaker 1: This is returnable. Oh, he's going to let it hit.
• 2:25:38
  Speaker 1: And Carvalho comes up with it at the 30. Breaks
• 2:25:41
  Speaker 1: to the outside 40. And he's tackled right there after
• 2:25:43
  Speaker 1: about a 10-yard return. For a moment, it looked like
• 2:25:47
  Speaker 1: he was going to let that roll. Instead, he picked
• 2:25:49
  Speaker 1: it up. About a 10-yard return there for Carvalho. And
• 2:25:51
  Speaker 1: good starting field position for Utah with 7.26 to play
• 2:25:54
  Speaker 1: at their own 40-yard line.
• 2:25:56
  Speaker 2: This field position is great starting field position if you
• 2:25:58
  Speaker 2: want to run the ball right here, which is I
• 2:26:00
  Speaker 2: think they say you should do.
• 2:26:01
  Speaker 4: Run the ball all the way down into the end zone.
• 2:26:03
  Speaker 4: Keep your 30-point streak.
• 2:26:05
  Speaker 2: Alive by scoring 30 points here on this drive.
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 4: But Wayshon Parker, Wayshon Parker, Wayshon Parker.
• 2:26:11
  Speaker 1: They have scored 30 points, has Utah, in nine consecutive games.
• 2:26:16
  Speaker 1: That's the longest streak right now in Division I football.
• 2:26:19
  Speaker 1: They have first and ten at their own 39. Parker,
• 2:26:23
  Speaker 1: who's got 125 yards rushing and 52 yards receiving, is
• 2:26:27
  Speaker 1: in the backfield on first down and ten. They hand
• 2:26:34
  Speaker 1: it to Wayshawn. He's got the 40, second level 45,
• 2:26:37
  Speaker 1: and spins down to about the 46, 47-yard line. So
• 2:26:39
  Speaker 1: a gain of eight yards on first down for Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:26:43
  Speaker 1: 14 carries and 133 yards now for Wayshawn Parker, and
• 2:26:46
  Speaker 1: now he's over 2,000 yards for his collegiate career rushing.
• 2:26:50
  Speaker 2: What a great cut right here.
• 2:26:53
  Speaker 4: Great job by Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:26:57
  Speaker 1: We dip under seven to play now.
• 2:26:58
  Speaker 5: 24-17 Utah.
• 2:26:59
  Speaker 1: Play clock at 20. Plenty of time here for the Utes.
• 2:27:04
  Speaker 1: Want to keep a rhythm, but also play that clock
• 2:27:06
  Speaker 1: in your favor. Dampier in the shotgun. Takes the snap.
• 2:27:12
  Speaker 1: Hands again to Parker. Wayshawn through a hole. He's got
• 2:27:16
  Speaker 1: the 40 and 38 yard line of Iowa State. Another
• 2:27:20
  Speaker 1: terrific run for Wayshawn Parker. Harper makes the tackle for
• 2:27:25
  Speaker 1: Iowa State. Move the chains and Ivory Holmes first down
• 2:27:28
  Speaker 1: for Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:27:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Iowa State starting to kind of understand what
• 2:27:33
  Speaker 2: mode we're in right now and running the football right here.
• 2:27:36
  Speaker 2: Devin Dampier, control the line of scrimmage. If you see
• 2:27:40
  Speaker 2: an overloaded box, check out of it.
• 2:27:43
  Speaker 1: 15 yards on that carry for Parker. He's now at
• 2:27:46
  Speaker 1: 148 for the ball game from the Iowa State 38-yard line.
• 2:27:50
  Speaker 1: Just a four-man down front for the Cyclones. Very runnable
• 2:27:54
  Speaker 1: spot here for Utah.
• 2:27:55
  Speaker 2: You got numbers.
• 2:27:56
  Speaker 1: Whittemore in motion, comes into the backfield for the Utes.
• 2:27:59
  Speaker 1: They hand it again to Parker. He plows straight ahead
• 2:28:01
  Speaker 1: to the 34 for four more yards.
• 2:28:03
  Speaker 2: That's huge.
• 2:28:04
  Speaker 1: Didn't look like there'd be much there. Max Balloon made
• 2:28:07
  Speaker 1: the tackle. Second down and six coming up as we
• 2:28:10
  Speaker 1: come up on 545. The clock running to play here
• 2:28:13
  Speaker 1: in Ames.
• 2:28:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is just great body position by Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:28:17
  Speaker 4: It's staying low.
• 2:28:18
  Speaker 2: As soon as he contacted defensive lineman, keeping his legs moving,
• 2:28:21
  Speaker 2: picking up two extra yards.
• 2:28:22
  Speaker 1: 152 on the afternoon now for Parker. Second down and
• 2:28:26
  Speaker 1: six Utah. Daniel Bray comes in motion. Stacks on the
• 2:28:30
  Speaker 1: right side with Braden Pagan. Two tight ends in the
• 2:28:33
  Speaker 1: formation for Utah on second and six. Devin Dampier brings
• 2:28:38
  Speaker 1: Bray in motion. Pop pass Daniel Bray. Hits the hole.
• 2:28:43
  Speaker 1: 30-25 outside and tackled at the Iowa State 21-yard line.
• 2:28:46
  Speaker 1: Daniel Bray picking up 13 yards and another Ivory Holmes
• 2:28:50
  Speaker 1: first down.
• 2:28:51
  Speaker 2: Great downfield blocking by Wayshon Parker, and it looked like
• 2:28:55
  Speaker 2: that was Braden Pagan right there on the outside, allowing
• 2:28:59
  Speaker 2: Daniel Bray to get free right there and pick up
• 2:29:01
  Speaker 2: big yards.
• 2:29:02
  Speaker 1: They mark him down at the 22-yard line is Daniel Bray.
• 2:29:05
  Speaker 1: It's still a first down. On the edge of the
• 2:29:08
  Speaker 1: red zone, Burge Ficklin in the ballgame for the first
• 2:29:10
  Speaker 1: time here in the second half for Utah. He stands
• 2:29:12
  Speaker 1: in the backfield with Devin Dampier. Three receivers split wide
• 2:29:16
  Speaker 1: to the right-hand side. Game clock at 440 and running.
• 2:29:21
  Speaker 1: First and 10, Utah. Hunter Andrews comes in motion into
• 2:29:26
  Speaker 1: the backfield. They hand that ball to Hunter Andrews. He's
• 2:29:28
  Speaker 1: inside the 20 and rolls his way down near the 17,
• 2:29:31
  Speaker 1: 18-yard line. Give him a gain of four as they're
• 2:29:34
  Speaker 1: into the Canyon View Credit Union red zone as the
• 2:29:37
  Speaker 1: clock continues to run with 420 to play.
• 2:29:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, great job.
• 2:29:41
  Speaker 2: They're giving Wayshon Parker a little blow here, which is well-deserved.
• 2:29:47
  Speaker 2: But you've got tons of guys who can run the ball.
• 2:29:48
  Speaker 2: Hunter Andrews is one of those guys. We haven't called
• 2:29:50
  Speaker 2: much this year, but he is definitely capable of toting
• 2:29:55
  Speaker 2: the rock for you here late in the game.
• 2:29:56
  Speaker 1: Devin DePierre standing in the shotgun by himself. Strength of
• 2:30:00
  Speaker 1: the left-hand side with a big old tight end. Rhino
• 2:30:02
  Speaker 1: back there for Utah. Wouldn't be surprised if Devin kept
• 2:30:05
  Speaker 1: it himself right here. Iowa State now crowding up near
• 2:30:07
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Whittemore comes in motion. Devin is
• 2:30:10
  Speaker 1: going to keep it himself. Picks his way forward inside
• 2:30:12
  Speaker 1: the 15, near the 14, close to the 13-yard line.
• 2:30:16
  Speaker 1: He'll be just shy of a first down. It'll be
• 2:30:18
  Speaker 1: third down and short here for Utah as the clock
• 2:30:20
  Speaker 1: continues to run with 3.35 to play.
• 2:30:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's another big third down right here.
• 2:30:30
  Speaker 2: As Zach said, you've got to come away with some
• 2:30:33
  Speaker 2: kind of points here. But picking up this first down.
• 2:30:37
  Speaker 2: Draining more clock is exactly what you want to do.
• 2:30:39
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker back in the ballgame. Third down and one.
• 2:30:43
  Speaker 1: Utah has not converted a third down here in the
• 2:30:45
  Speaker 1: second half. Dampier goes under center. Lots of tight ends
• 2:30:49
  Speaker 1: and Braden Pegg into the ballgame. Watch the play action.
• 2:30:54
  Speaker 1: Play action roll to the right. They dump it away.
• 2:30:56
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker in the flat. He's got the ten. He's
• 2:30:58
  Speaker 1: got the five. He's got the end zone. Touchdown! Touchdown!
• 2:31:04
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn Parker! And that will be the dagger here this
• 2:31:10
  Speaker 1: afternoon in Ames as Dampier finds Parker wide open in
• 2:31:14
  Speaker 1: the flat and Huishan walks the tightrope into the end
• 2:31:17
  Speaker 1: zone for a Utah touchdown.
• 2:31:20
  Speaker 2: Great operation right there. Got the penetration. Devin makes a
• 2:31:24
  Speaker 2: great play, dumping it right to Huishan. And Huishan does
• 2:31:28
  Speaker 2: the rest, keeping that contact all the way through and
• 2:31:31
  Speaker 2: getting in the end zone.
• 2:31:33
  Speaker 1: What an afternoon for Huishan Parker. Third touchdown of the
• 2:31:38
  Speaker 1: day for Parker. He's got nine on the year now,
• 2:31:40
  Speaker 1: 152 yards rushing, 65 yards receiving, and the dagger touchdown
• 2:31:46
  Speaker 1: as Cyclone fans begin to head to the exits here
• 2:31:49
  Speaker 1: at Jack Trice Stadium. PAT up and PAT good with 2.58
• 2:31:55
  Speaker 1: to play. It's Utah 31 and Iowa State 17. And
• 2:32:06
  Speaker 1: it has been Wayshon Parker's day today here at Jack
• 2:32:11
  Speaker 1: Trice Stadium. By the way, that was the first Utah
• 2:32:14
  Speaker 1: third down conversion of the afternoon. How about that?
• 2:32:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, of the second half. Yeah, it was much needed.
• 2:32:22
  Speaker 2: At a time where things were looking a little bleak,
• 2:32:25
  Speaker 2: where this defense needed a little bit more break, your
• 2:32:29
  Speaker 2: team needed that momentum. You rode your bear pail right there,
• 2:32:32
  Speaker 2: and Wayshon Parker took you home. Newey, Newey for Devin Dampier.
• 2:32:38
  Speaker 1: They knew what they needed, and they got it. 31-17 Utah.
• 2:32:48
  Speaker 1: And they'll kick off here to Iowa State. Cameron Petaway
• 2:32:52
  Speaker 1: back deep to receive. That touchdown of Hep C touchdown
• 2:32:58
  Speaker 1: for the University of Utah. 2.58 to play. That kick's
• 2:33:05
  Speaker 1: going to be short and returnable for Petaway. He's going
• 2:33:07
  Speaker 1: to take it from about the 5. Petaway's got the 10.
• 2:33:10
  Speaker 1: Petaway's got the 20. And he's swarmed under at about
• 2:33:12
  Speaker 1: the 23-yard line is Cameron Petaway. And with 2.54 to play,
• 2:33:19
  Speaker 1: that's where the Cyclones will start first and 10. So
• 2:33:22
  Speaker 1: it wasn't a thing of beauty offensively here in the
• 2:33:25
  Speaker 1: second half. But when Utah needed a drive to close
• 2:33:27
  Speaker 1: this game out, they got it from the offense there.
• 2:33:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it was long.
• 2:33:31
  Speaker 1: And Utah's scoring drive was outstanding.
• 2:33:33
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 2:33:34
  Speaker 2: It's exactly what they needed. It was long, and it
• 2:33:36
  Speaker 2: was effective by getting in the end zone.
• 2:33:38
  Speaker 1: Seven plays, 61 yards, and 4.28 of time of possession.
• 2:33:44
  Speaker 1: They take care of business and get that touchdown. First
• 2:33:48
  Speaker 1: and ten for Iowa State for their own 23-yard line.
• 2:33:51
  Speaker 1: Rainer by himself in the shotgun. He'll backpedal to pass.
• 2:33:54
  Speaker 1: Pressure coming. Down the field he goes, and.
• 2:33:56
  Speaker 4: It's intercepted by Jackson Benny.
• 2:33:59
  Speaker 1: And he's tackled down at the Iowa State 38-yard line.
• 2:34:02
  Speaker 1: He's been so close to a big play all day long.
• 2:34:05
  Speaker 1: And there it is. Benny closes it out for Utah today,
• 2:34:09
  Speaker 1: picking off Jalen Rayner. And Utah will get it back
• 2:34:13
  Speaker 1: with 2.46 to play here in the ballgame.
• 2:34:15
  Speaker 2: That's just outstanding work by Jackson Benny right there. That's
• 2:34:19
  Speaker 2: just him making elite plays. They're in cover two right here.
• 2:34:22
  Speaker 2: Jalen Rayner understands cover two, so he's waiting for something.
• 2:34:25
  Speaker 2: to come open under the middle right there. But that
• 2:34:27
  Speaker 2: is when your playmakers make plays. That is literally the
• 2:34:31
  Speaker 2: definition of your playmakers making plays. Jackson Binney sticking with
• 2:34:35
  Speaker 2: that vertical route. He could have let that vertical route
• 2:34:37
  Speaker 2: go to the safety.
• 2:34:38
  Speaker 4: That's normally what you're supposed to do in cover two.
• 2:34:40
  Speaker 2: But he stays with it, stays under it, understands what
• 2:34:43
  Speaker 2: Jalen Rayner is seeing.
• 2:34:45
  Speaker 4: And makes a play right here.
• 2:34:47
  Speaker 2: This is just outstanding work right here by Jackson Binney.
• 2:34:51
  Speaker 2: I can't say enough about that play. Great job.
• 2:34:53
  Speaker 1: First and ten, Utah at the Iowa State 38, trying
• 2:34:57
  Speaker 1: to close this game out with 2.46 to play. Iowa
• 2:34:59
  Speaker 1: State still has all three timeouts. Going to hand it
• 2:35:02
  Speaker 1: off to Wayshon Parker, being patient in the hole, breaking
• 2:35:05
  Speaker 1: it outside. He's got the corner 30, 25, 20, steps
• 2:35:09
  Speaker 1: out of a tackle, stays on his feet, and he's
• 2:35:11
  Speaker 1: taken down at the Iowa State 18-yard line. Wayshawn Parker
• 2:35:16
  Speaker 1: with a nice run on that play.
• 2:35:17
  Speaker 4: That was not the original hole.
• 2:35:20
  Speaker 1: That was a 20-yard run by Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:35:22
  Speaker 2: When you talk about backyard football, you're making some things happen.
• 2:35:24
  Speaker 2: That's what that looked like right there. He's just having fun.
• 2:35:28
  Speaker 5: Iowa State.
• 2:35:36
  Speaker 2: He's already got three touchdowns on the day. He's trying
• 2:35:37
  Speaker 2: to make it four right there. That is just outstanding
• 2:35:40
  Speaker 2: work right there by Wayshawn Parker.
• 2:35:42
  Speaker 4: He's really filling himself here in the second half.
• 2:35:45
  Speaker 1: Wayshawn now 17 carries, 172 yards. Two touchdowns on the ground,
• 2:35:51
  Speaker 1: one through the air. He's got five catches for 65 yards.
• 2:35:56
  Speaker 1: And David Dampier, 17 to 26, two touchdowns and 203 yards.
• 2:36:02
  Speaker 2: Well, he's drawing near that 20 carries that we were
• 2:36:04
  Speaker 2: talking about in pregame. 20 plus carries is what is
• 2:36:09
  Speaker 2: needed to pull out this win. And Wayshawn Parker's feeling it.
• 2:36:13
  Speaker 2: Give that man the ball. Absolutely great work today.
• 2:36:19
  Speaker 1: So Utah's got it in the Canyon View Credit Union
• 2:36:21
  Speaker 1: red zone for a fourth time today. First and ten
• 2:36:26
  Speaker 1: at the Iowa State 18-yard line. Clones still have two
• 2:36:30
  Speaker 1: timeouts plus the two-minute timeout. Delayed handoff. Way Sean Parker
• 2:36:34
  Speaker 1: again picking his way outside. Oh, he almost got to
• 2:36:36
  Speaker 1: the outside. Tackled down at the 16-yard line by Goodman
• 2:36:40
  Speaker 1: after a two-yard game.
• 2:36:42
  Speaker 8: Iowa State 30 seconds.
• 2:36:45
  Speaker 2: That was an outstanding open field tackle right there because
• 2:36:48
  Speaker 2: if he doesn't, Wayshon's down near the goal line.
• 2:36:51
  Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see what Morgan Scali decides to
• 2:36:54
  Speaker 1: do here if they get a first down. Do you
• 2:36:55
  Speaker 1: take the knee or do you try to go for
• 2:36:57
  Speaker 1: some points?
• 2:36:59
  Speaker 2: I'd go for it. I mean, one, it's Wayshon Parker's day.
• 2:37:02
  Speaker 2: Have him pay off for it. The way that Iowa
• 2:37:05
  Speaker 2: State's played today, I'd score another point. Plus, you know,
• 2:37:08
  Speaker 2: my bet was that we would score 35 points. So
• 2:37:11
  Speaker 2: that's me talking right there. But the playbook would say
• 2:37:15
  Speaker 2: take a knee, Bill.
• 2:37:16
  Speaker 1: We'll see. Sometimes style points come into effect. I don't
• 2:37:19
  Speaker 1: know if that will be the case today or not.
• 2:37:21
  Speaker 1: But it's second down and eight at the Iowa State 16.
• 2:37:24
  Speaker 1: The Cyclones have one timeout plus the two-minute timeout coming
• 2:37:28
  Speaker 1: up with 2.28 to play right here. Devin Dampier in
• 2:37:31
  Speaker 1: the backfield. Daniel Bray with him. Two tights and two
• 2:37:35
  Speaker 1: wides here for Utah on second down and eight. Hand
• 2:37:40
  Speaker 1: off Bray trying to get the edge. Tries to cut
• 2:37:42
  Speaker 1: up field slips and falls at the 16-yard line, and
• 2:37:44
  Speaker 1: Iowa State will take their final timeout here and bring
• 2:37:47
  Speaker 1: up third down and eight.
• 2:37:48
  Speaker 5: Final charge, timeout at half. Iowa State, 30 seconds.
• 2:37:53
  Speaker 1: So does Utah put the ball in the air here
• 2:37:55
  Speaker 1: on third down and eight?
• 2:37:56
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 2:37:57
  Speaker 1: Or do they keep it on the ground? I think
• 2:37:58
  Speaker 1: they probably take a shot here and then kick the
• 2:38:01
  Speaker 1: field goal and come up short.
• 2:38:02
  Speaker 2: I'm putting Wayshon Parker back in the backfield, making them
• 2:38:05
  Speaker 2: think that I'm going to run because they've been running
• 2:38:07
  Speaker 2: zero coverage this entire time. Larry Simmons has had one-on-one.
• 2:38:10
  Speaker 2: Brandon Pagan has had one-on-one. to take a shot at
• 2:38:13
  Speaker 2: the end zone because you're in field goal range.
• 2:38:15
  Speaker 4: At the end of the day. If that's what you
• 2:38:17
  Speaker 4: wanted to do, you can do that.
• 2:38:19
  Speaker 2: But you're far enough away from that first down marker
• 2:38:24
  Speaker 2: that you're going to get one-on-one on the outside because
• 2:38:28
  Speaker 2: they're going to think that you're going to run the
• 2:38:29
  Speaker 2: ball because you want to take this to the two-minute warning,
• 2:38:31
  Speaker 2: waste more time. If you've got a one-on-one opportunity, I.
• 2:38:37
  Speaker 4: Think you take it.
• 2:38:38
  Speaker 1: No pegging on the field, but you do have Kyrie Scholes,
• 2:38:41
  Speaker 1: Larry Simmons, and Creed Whittemore on third down and eight
• 2:38:45
  Speaker 1: from the Iowa State 16-yard line. Dampier rolls to the right,
• 2:38:48
  Speaker 1: looks down the field, fires to the outside. It's caught,
• 2:38:50
  Speaker 1: but short of first down yardage. Whittemore catches, but way
• 2:38:54
  Speaker 1: short of first down yardage. Down at about the 13-yard line.
• 2:38:57
  Speaker 1: He's going to bring up fourth down, but not until
• 2:38:59
  Speaker 1: we get past the two-minute timeout.
• 2:39:01
  Speaker 4: I'm very confused at that route structure.
• 2:39:05
  Speaker 2: They got five.
• 2:39:07
  Speaker 4: Five receivers that can catch the ball. Two-minute timeout.
• 2:39:10
  Speaker 1: We'll take the two-minute timeout and come back with fourth down.
• 2:39:13
  Speaker 1: We'll see if Utah brings the offense back out or
• 2:39:15
  Speaker 1: if they kick a field goal here. They lead at
• 2:39:17
  Speaker 1: 31-17 with two minutes to play in the Big 12 opener.
• 2:39:20
  Speaker 1: From Ames, Iowa and the Big O Tires broadcast booth,
• 2:39:23
  Speaker 1: this is Utah Football from ESPN 700 and the Ute
• 2:39:26
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network.
• 2:39:28
  Speaker 7: You're listening to Utah Football brought to you by Big
• 2:39:31
  Speaker 7: O Tires on ESPN 700 and the Ute Sports Network.
• 2:39:37
  Speaker 1: Back at Jack Trice Stadium, Iowa State fans heading to
• 2:39:40
  Speaker 1: the exits. Fourth down for Utah and five. They bring
• 2:39:42
  Speaker 1: the field goal team out. Dylan Curtis will attempt a
• 2:39:47
  Speaker 1: 31-yard field goal for the right hash mark. Good snap.
• 2:39:51
  Speaker 1: Good hold. The kick is away. And the kick is missed.
• 2:39:56
  Speaker 1: It hit the upright and doinked. And Dylan Curtis could
• 2:40:00
  Speaker 1: not have had an easier look, but he hit the
• 2:40:02
  Speaker 1: upright and comes around rebounding back. And so with a
• 2:40:05
  Speaker 1: minute 54 to play. Still a two-score game. Iowa State's
• 2:40:09
  Speaker 1: going to get the football back here. No timeouts. And
• 2:40:12
  Speaker 1: down 31-17.
• 2:40:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, defense got to come up with one more big play.
• 2:40:18
  Speaker 2: And then, of course, Utah can victory formation the end
• 2:40:22
  Speaker 2: of this game. But we didn't want to score 34
• 2:40:25
  Speaker 2: points today. I don't know. I don't know why.
• 2:40:30
  Speaker 1: Jalen Rayner stands to the shotgun, first and ten. He
• 2:40:32
  Speaker 1: spreads the field with some wide receivers. Pressure's going to
• 2:40:35
  Speaker 1: come on him. He's going to fire that ball over
• 2:40:36
  Speaker 1: the middle. Nearly intercepted, tipped at the line of scrimmage.
• 2:40:39
  Speaker 1: Tried to get that ball to Overby. And it goes incomplete,
• 2:40:45
  Speaker 1: second down and ten. He clobbered Overby, too, because that
• 2:40:50
  Speaker 1: ball was tipped. You can hit a receiver after the
• 2:40:52
  Speaker 1: ball is tipped.
• 2:40:54
  Speaker 4: I know that rule very well.
• 2:40:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, you do. Minute 50 to play, second down and 10,
• 2:40:58
  Speaker 1: Rayner to pass again. Looking on the outside again, this
• 2:41:01
  Speaker 1: one's caught by Overby. And that's going to be about
• 2:41:05
  Speaker 1: a yard, maybe two shy of the first down. They'll
• 2:41:07
  Speaker 1: mark it at about the 28-yard line. They've got to
• 2:41:09
  Speaker 1: get to the 30, so third down and two coming up.
• 2:41:14
  Speaker 1: Iowa State going to hurry just a bit here. Now
• 2:41:16
  Speaker 1: 90 seconds to play. Rayner hands the ball off of
• 2:41:20
  Speaker 1: the tailback, doesn't get there. He gave it to Petaway.
• 2:41:23
  Speaker 1: He loses a yard back. Well, they're going to give
• 2:41:25
  Speaker 1: him the line of scrimmage. I thought he lost a
• 2:41:26
  Speaker 1: yard back near the 27. Holtzclaw was in on the tackle.
• 2:41:29
  Speaker 4: Very favorable spot.
• 2:41:31
  Speaker 1: And now they're going to be fourth down and two.
• 2:41:33
  Speaker 1: Iowa State two out of four on fourth down today.
• 2:41:36
  Speaker 1: Rainer to pass again. Looking, looking, surveying, throwing. Broke it
• 2:41:39
  Speaker 1: up on the outside and incomplete as Utah breaks it up.
• 2:41:44
  Speaker 1: They were trying to get it to Overby and Scooby Davis.
• 2:41:46
  Speaker 1: who gave up the touchdown earlier to Overby, says not
• 2:41:49
  Speaker 1: this time. Breaks it up. Utah will take back over
• 2:41:52
  Speaker 1: with a minute seven to play and assume the victory
• 2:41:54
  Speaker 1: formation here in Ames, Iowa.
• 2:41:56
  Speaker 2: Are you saying that we covered the hitch route on
• 2:41:58
  Speaker 2: the ISO side and didn't allow it to happen? That's great.
• 2:42:03
  Speaker 1: So a three and out, make it a four and
• 2:42:05
  Speaker 1: out for the Utah defense, who's been better on the
• 2:42:07
  Speaker 1: last couple of drives. Utah's going to walk out of
• 2:42:10
  Speaker 1: here with a two-touchdown victory on the road. Got a
• 2:42:13
  Speaker 1: little hairy for a moment or two here today when
• 2:42:15
  Speaker 1: Utah's offense went a little quiet. But when they needed
• 2:42:18
  Speaker 1: that touchdown drive to seal the game, they got it
• 2:42:21
  Speaker 1: from Devin Dampier in the offense and Wayshon Parker especially.
• 2:42:25
  Speaker 1: And now they'll assume the victory formation here. Only have
• 2:42:30
  Speaker 1: to snap it twice. First one by Devin Dampier is down.
• 2:42:35
  Speaker 1: He'll snap it one more time and Utah's going to
• 2:42:37
  Speaker 1: walk out of here. 4-0 on the year and 1-0
• 2:42:41
  Speaker 1: in Big 12 play.
• 2:42:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I'm very picky, but a win's a win.
• 2:42:45
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 2:42:45
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 2:42:45
  Speaker 4: You're on the road. It may be ugly.
• 2:42:47
  Speaker 2: However it gets done, a win's a win. So we
• 2:42:50
  Speaker 2: cannot knock that. And at the end of the day,
• 2:42:53
  Speaker 2: that is what happened. That is the result, is the
• 2:42:56
  Speaker 2: W in the right column.
• 2:42:58
  Speaker 1: One more snap coming here for Devin Dampier as the
• 2:43:01
  Speaker 1: game clock dips under 40. Now he can go under center.
• 2:43:05
  Speaker 1: Take that ball from Alex Harrison. Take a knee, and
• 2:43:07
  Speaker 1: that will do it. Our final score today here at
• 2:43:11
  Speaker 1: Jack Price Stadium. Utah goes on the road. And for
• 2:43:14
  Speaker 1: just the second time all time, beats the Iowa State
• 2:43:16
  Speaker 1: Cyclones by a final score of 31-17.
