- 1:17Speaker 1: has certainly not been twenty nineteen in any way shape
- 1:21Speaker 1: or four on the field or off the field.
- 1:24Speaker 2: For Utah football.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Today marks what will likely be the final game of
- 1:27Speaker 1: a truncated five game season for Utah, a season that's
- 1:31Speaker 1: taking its toll both physically and also mentally on Kyle
- 1:35Speaker 1: Whittingham's football team. Despite the many challenges that twenty twenty
- 1:39Speaker 1: is presented, Utah football has remained true to itself and
- 1:43Speaker 1: continued to show improvement week after week.
- 1:49Speaker 4: Let's receipt.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Yes, the once young and unproven talent has begun to
- 2:20Speaker 1: show real promise. Though not young quarterback Jake Bentley is
- 2:24Speaker 1: due to Utah football, and while he didn't have the
- 2:26Speaker 1: starting job in fall camp, Kyle Whittingham says, he's now
- 2:30Speaker 1: showing why he was chosen as a team captain by
- 2:33Speaker 1: his peers.
- 2:34Speaker 5: He's great on the sidelines too.
- 2:36Speaker 6: He's such a.
- 2:36Speaker 5: Leader and and uh it's such a great communicator to
- 2:39Speaker 5: the rest of the players and making sure it was
- 2:41Speaker 5: on the same page, and communicating with the backs about
- 2:45Speaker 5: boots pick up and the receivers about the route structures.
- 2:47Speaker 5: And he's just a student of the game. He understands
- 2:49Speaker 5: the big picture. He sees it all, which which you
- 2:51Speaker 5: need to have in your quarterback. You have to have
- 2:53Speaker 5: a quarterback that sees the big picture.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Bentley and the Utes are hoping to close the season
- 2:57Speaker 1: with a third consecutive win, but to do that, you'll
- 3:00Speaker 1: need to beat Washington.
- 3:01Speaker 2: State today at the finale.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Wazoo comes in with just one win in three games,
- 3:06Speaker 1: but they've shown some scrappiness under first year head coach
- 3:09Speaker 1: Nick Rolovich. Rolo expects his team will have to play
- 3:12Speaker 1: a physical game today to beat Utah.
- 3:15Speaker 7: Any team that's coached by Windingham, who's going to be
- 3:17Speaker 7: a tough, physical, passionate, you know, love playing football team.
- 3:22Speaker 7: You know there's there's a physicality that his brand has
- 3:26Speaker 7: been developed and.
- 3:28Speaker 1: For a long time.
- 3:29Speaker 7: I probably going to be so on the next day,
- 3:32Speaker 7: our chowns make sure they're sing too.
- 3:34Speaker 1: So it's the Cougars and the Utes for the final
- 3:38Speaker 1: game of the twenty twenty college football season, and it

- 5:17Speaker 8: go out with just a great performance today. Kind of
- 5:20Speaker 8: let all the frustration of this the season, and the

- 5:26Speaker 8: just kind of let it all out today and just
- 5:28Speaker 8: have a great performance and a dominating win by this
- 5:31Speaker 8: Utah football team.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Utah won the toss for the first time in twenty twenty,
- 5:35Speaker 1: and they have elected to the firm. So they'll kick
- 5:38Speaker 1: off and Washington State will get the third ball. First
- 5:42Speaker 1: here today Trevelle Harris back deep to receive the Jordan
- 5:45Speaker 1: Noise kickoff. Jordan will kick from south to north, from
- 5:48Speaker 1: right to left as you listen to it, and we
- 5:51Speaker 1: call it here today at Rice Ecles Stadium, so good
- 5:53Speaker 1: to have you in for the regular season finale. Noise approaches,
- 5:57Speaker 1: puts his right foot into it. It's a low squip
- 6:00Speaker 1: kick which will roll at the five to the one,
- 6:02Speaker 1: and Harris will bring it out to the five to
- 6:04Speaker 1: the ten to the fifteen. Trevelle Harris rafted up and
- 6:07Speaker 1: taken down at about the twenty three yard line, so
- 6:11Speaker 1: a twenty three yard return, and that's where Washington State
- 6:13Speaker 1: will set up first down in ten with freshman quarterback
- 6:17Speaker 1: Jade De Laura bringing the offense out for the first
- 6:20Speaker 1: time today Wazoo and their white helmet white Thompson Great
- 6:23Speaker 1: Pants Utah and they're all red look with white helmets
- 6:26Speaker 1: today and for the first time in twenty twenty college
- 6:29Speaker 1: football fans, we'll get a look at talented Max Morgan,
- 6:32Speaker 1: the junior tailback out of Southern California who's missed the
- 6:35Speaker 1: first three games for Washington State. DeLaura operates out of
- 6:39Speaker 1: the shotgun Morgan and the pistol behind it. Four man
- 6:42Speaker 1: down front here for Utah first and ten. Gorgian now
- 6:45Speaker 1: comes to the left of Jayde and DeLaura takes the
- 6:49Speaker 1: snap back pedals to pass surveys the field. Laura's gonna
- 6:53Speaker 1: scramble after the right fire down the field. Ball took
- 6:55Speaker 1: Dad barely intercepted. Nate Ritchie in coverage made a heck
- 7:02Speaker 1: of a plan of all that would have been completed
- 7:03Speaker 1: for about twenty five yards.
- 7:05Speaker 2: It nearly came up with the interception.
- 7:06Speaker 8: Yeah, this is a great athletic play by Nate Richie
- 7:09Speaker 8: there and then he's in this plant area and he
- 7:11Speaker 8: doesn't fill anyone, so he drops just instinctively, and really
- 7:15Speaker 8: good job by him. Because wide receiver for Washington State.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Was open De, Laura had all day to throw as well,
- 7:21Speaker 1: probably gonna rand it for about ten yards instead. Second
- 7:23Speaker 1: down at ten poor man down look for Utah. Borgiy
- 7:27Speaker 1: again in the backfield behind DeLaura. This stuff four wide
- 7:30Speaker 1: look here for Washington State for their own twenty three
- 7:32Speaker 1: yard line. Laura takes the snap, hands at the Gorgy.
- 7:36Speaker 1: He'll try the outside to have the edge twenty five
- 7:38Speaker 1: out of bounds at the twenty seven yard line for
- 7:41Speaker 1: a game of four yards, third down and six coming up.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Morstann of bounds on that r sidne by Mika Tabua
- 7:47Speaker 1: Inja Drama's front.
- 7:49Speaker 8: Yeah, Mika kind of got sucked to the inside and
- 7:53Speaker 8: between he and Sewell, they didn't do a good job
- 7:55Speaker 8: of who has the edge.
- 7:57Speaker 1: They less They should have kept that paint that run
- 8:00Speaker 1: for no game Huskies Will smart should say Coogars will
- 8:04Speaker 1: split out wide receivers left and right too, right forgy
- 8:08Speaker 1: stage of the ball game. He's a pass catching thread
- 8:10Speaker 1: as well. Still a four man down front here for
- 8:12Speaker 1: the use. The lord checks with a sideline, now takes
- 8:17Speaker 1: the snap back pedals on third and six. Lots of
- 8:20Speaker 1: time again, surveys fires caught Renard Bell's got it beyond
- 8:23Speaker 1: the thirty to the thirty two yard line. That'll be
- 8:26Speaker 1: first down yardage or Willings No, he went backwards, so
- 8:30Speaker 1: he's gonna be one yard shy. Devin Lloyd made the tackle.
- 8:33Speaker 1: It looked like he had it Scott that he came
- 8:35Speaker 1: backwards and instead of first down, it's gonna be fourth
- 8:38Speaker 1: down and one.
- 8:38Speaker 8: Yeah, he committed to Cardinal sin is that is he
- 8:41Speaker 8: catch the ball and you get north and south and
- 8:43Speaker 8: he tried to make a big play and paid for it.
- 8:45Speaker 8: Good job by Utah to tackle him and not get
- 8:48Speaker 8: that extra yardage.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Dragisovitch John to punt here for Wazoo. Covey stands at
- 8:52Speaker 1: his own twenty five good punt, a missile over the
- 8:56Speaker 1: head of Covey and out of bounds. We'll see where
- 8:58Speaker 1: they market. It'll be in the range of the two
- 9:00Speaker 1: twenty one yard line. It'll be right at the twenty
- 9:02Speaker 1: and that's where Utah will begin first down in ten.
- 9:04Speaker 1: So a good punt by Drogyesovich and Utah will have
- 9:07Speaker 1: an eighty yard field to begin here with Jake Bentley.
- 9:09Speaker 8: Yeah, and clearly Washington State says we're not gonna punt
- 9:12Speaker 8: the ball to Covey. That was a directional punt. Get
- 9:15Speaker 8: it as far down the field as you possibly can
- 9:17Speaker 8: and kick it out of bounds. Pretty smart move there
- 9:19Speaker 8: by Washington State.
- 9:21Speaker 1: So Jake Bentley brings the offense after the first time
- 9:23Speaker 1: today coming off his best game is a you to
- 9:25Speaker 1: week could go two hundred and forty yards passing in
- 9:28Speaker 1: thirty one yards rushing. A week ago in Boulder, in
- 9:31Speaker 1: the shadows of the construction project on the south end
- 9:33Speaker 1: of Bryce Ecles Stadium is where Utah operates.
- 9:36Speaker 2: First in ten, Jakes should have change.
- 9:38Speaker 1: The play on first down, and Simmymwalla got off on
- 9:41Speaker 1: that play and he'll commit the illegal procedure that'll back
- 9:45Speaker 1: it up and first down.
- 9:48Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a little unfortunate. Utah looked like they did
- 9:51Speaker 8: this unbalanced to the right. I mean they had everybody
- 9:53Speaker 8: over there, and then Covey comes back late and m
- 9:56Speaker 8: Walla's got to seal that end and so he got
- 9:58Speaker 8: to get out quick, and he just got got off
- 10:00Speaker 8: a little bit too fast.
- 10:01Speaker 1: So first and ten becomes first down in fifteen. Now
- 10:04Speaker 1: tied Jordan in the backfield, a tremendous and dynamic tailback
- 10:08Speaker 1: Salamaninus in motion across the formation, back pedaling off the
- 10:11Speaker 1: snap as Bentley lots of time surveys, dumps it over
- 10:13Speaker 1: the middle. He's got a tight end complete out to
- 10:16Speaker 1: about the nineteen yard line. For a game of four,
- 10:17Speaker 1: that's brand keithy, and they'll pick up four of the
- 10:20Speaker 1: five they lost on first down, second down and eleven
- 10:23Speaker 1: coming up.
- 10:24Speaker 8: And again it's a good first down play. No one
- 10:26Speaker 8: was opened down the field. But I like the fact
- 10:29Speaker 8: that Jake Bentley's actually looking downfield on early downs, make
- 10:33Speaker 8: a positive play and then and then get in a
- 10:35Speaker 8: good position here to convert on third down.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Washington State clearly ready for the run and Ty Jordan
- 10:40Speaker 1: now though five wide receivers on second down at eleven,
- 10:44Speaker 1: Cougar shifting around up front, showing pressure. Bentley by himself
- 10:47Speaker 1: with the gun. Here comes the blitz. Surveys throws over
- 10:49Speaker 1: the middle Britain Covey. As it juggled and then dropped.
- 10:52Speaker 1: It looked like the referee maybe the umpire got in
- 10:55Speaker 1: his way on that play. So it goes in complete.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Third down at eleven coming up, and.
- 10:59Speaker 8: Jake kind of threw this. It's just a little bit
- 11:00Speaker 8: too ear and he's got plenty of time. And you
- 11:03Speaker 8: know a lot of times you actually could use that
- 11:06Speaker 8: official as a as a screener. A lot of teams
- 11:09Speaker 8: do that on purpose, they really do, and they and
- 11:11Speaker 8: that that's one of those places right there, especially that
- 11:13Speaker 8: man coverage Covey caught that one. He'd have been off
- 11:16Speaker 8: to the races.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Out of the ball game. Goes Jordan, Michaeherbo Hybernard in
- 11:21Speaker 1: third down and eleven Utah four wide. Look here for
- 11:23Speaker 1: Bentley four man rush. Here they come, he steps, He's
- 11:26Speaker 1: gonna run with it. Jake's gonna get to the outside.
- 11:29Speaker 1: He's got the twenty five still on his feet, close
- 11:31Speaker 1: to the two thirty yard line. He'll be stopped about
- 11:34Speaker 1: a yard and a half shine about the twenty eight
- 11:35Speaker 1: and a half yard line. Take along to play by
- 11:38Speaker 1: Will linebacker the tremendous John Woods, and that'll bring up
- 11:41Speaker 1: fourth down here for Utah, and they'll bring the punt
- 11:43Speaker 1: team out I think here on fourth and about a yard.
- 11:45Speaker 8: Man Ben Bentley, although he's run the ball tough this year. Yeah,
- 11:50Speaker 8: Woods put the wood to him on that play. He
- 11:52Speaker 8: really took a shot there.
- 11:54Speaker 1: They're gonna play punt safe here will Washington State Trevelle
- 11:57Speaker 1: Harris will come out and Ben Lennon de punt for
- 12:01Speaker 1: the first time today. That penalty hurt Utah. On first
- 12:04Speaker 1: and ten, here's lenin. He'll kick it straight away and
- 12:07Speaker 1: end over end kick. Harris is gonna come up in
- 12:09Speaker 1: fair catch it about the thirty three yard line, and
- 12:12Speaker 1: that's where Washington State will take over first and ten.
- 12:15Speaker 1: So both teams go three and out on their opening drive.
- 12:17Speaker 1: We'll take a time out and be back to the
- 12:19Speaker 1: University of Utah Health Broadcast booth. When we return, it's
- 12:22Speaker 1: Utah zero Washington State zero. Just underway here at Salt
- 12:26Speaker 1: Lake City from Deerfield IMG College. Our first half of
- 12:32Speaker 1: Utah football. The day be brought to you by bud Light,

- 12:47Speaker 1: Dave Glausser, and we actually have fans in the stands today.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Places rocket about four hundred people.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Friends and family of the Washington State and Utah players
- 12:58Speaker 1: are here today. The Washington State fans have kind of
- 13:01Speaker 1: set up here on the west side of Rice Ecle State.
- 13:03Speaker 1: The Utah fans, being smart, set up behind their bench.
- 13:07Speaker 1: But also they'll have sunshine longer here on a chili day.
- 13:10Speaker 1: They're on the east side. They when teams went three
- 13:12Speaker 1: and out.
- 13:13Speaker 8: They know where to sit. Look that first drive for Utah,
- 13:15Speaker 8: they ran the ball zero times, look down the field
- 13:18Speaker 8: to throw nothing was there. So hopefully they'll continue to
- 13:22Speaker 8: see if they can get some of those throws down
- 13:24Speaker 8: the field.
- 13:24Speaker 1: On offense. First and ten for Washington State. A little
- 13:27Speaker 1: bit better starting field position this time they're own thirty three.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Jade de Laura on that first series was one out
- 13:33Speaker 1: of two for six yards. Max Borgy the back of
- 13:37Speaker 1: the backfield. Haven't seen Dion McIntosh just yet, poor man
- 13:41Speaker 1: down look here for Utah. Let's see if they can
- 13:43Speaker 1: generate a little more pressure this time on DeLaura showed
- 13:46Speaker 1: a little pressure off the edge now or the use
- 13:49Speaker 1: Jade DeLaura backfedals after taking the shotgun. Snapp fires to
- 13:52Speaker 1: the outside, It's caught immediately and then stepping out of
- 13:55Speaker 1: bounds at about the forty three yard line. Jermaine Calvin
- 13:59Speaker 1: a gate of eleven and a first down for Washington State.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Utah playing way off Scott.
- 14:03Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's what I didn't want to see happen.
- 14:04Speaker 8: And you know that's what I was referring to all
- 14:06Speaker 8: week long. Put pressure, don't don't give them these easy throws.
- 14:10Speaker 8: They did a great job of disguising that secondary look,
- 14:12Speaker 8: but just too easy to throw on first down.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Now, they don't really go way down the field. Washington
- 14:17Speaker 1: State everything's usually within about five or ten yards of
- 14:20Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage from their own forty three first
- 14:23Speaker 1: down and ten. Borgy stays in the backfield with Jayden
- 14:25Speaker 1: Dolores spreads the field with four wide receivers surveys. The
- 14:28Speaker 1: Utah defense takes the snap, the late hand off to
- 14:31Speaker 1: Borgie and the hole split Screw fifteen forty five forty
- 14:34Speaker 1: on his feet pushed out of battle to the Utah
- 14:35Speaker 1: thirty six yard line. There was a hole about yay big.
- 14:39Speaker 1: He squirted through it and picked up a nice gain
- 14:42Speaker 1: on that play of twenty one yards and a first
- 14:45Speaker 1: down for the Washington State Cougars.
- 14:46Speaker 2: Now in business at the Utah thirty six.
- 14:48Speaker 8: And that's a little tackle trap there. They just pulled
- 14:51Speaker 8: the tackle from the left side and Nephie school did
- 14:55Speaker 8: just got on the wrong side of the gap there
- 14:56Speaker 8: and created a hole.
- 14:57Speaker 1: For Borgie the eight. Richie forced him out of band
- 15:00Speaker 1: I's first and ten. Now for the coops, they're at
- 15:02Speaker 1: the Utah thirty six yard line. D Laura moving wide
- 15:05Speaker 1: receivers around the formation. Now he's got a four wide
- 15:08Speaker 1: look in this run and shoot offense. Utah again rushing
- 15:11Speaker 1: gis for dropping everybody else at coverage Delaura's surveys looks
- 15:15Speaker 1: fires to the outside. It's caught and then dropped. Are
- 15:18Speaker 1: they gonna give him the catch?
- 15:19Speaker 7: Tho?
- 15:19Speaker 1: Incomplete? They tried to find Trevelle Harris on the outside
- 15:23Speaker 1: and the good job by Nate Ritchie coming up? Was
- 15:26Speaker 1: it Malone Monte al monta Ala on that play to
- 15:28Speaker 1: force that vault away from Harris and incomplete?
- 15:31Speaker 8: Yeah, and this is this is a long throw. I
- 15:33Speaker 8: mean he's all the way on the right. Hash He's
- 15:34Speaker 8: throwing an out all the way to the left. A
- 15:37Speaker 8: long time for that ball to get there, which which
- 15:39Speaker 8: gave Manta Ailey a chance to get in there and
- 15:43Speaker 8: make the play.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Second down in ten Washington State, just underway ten forty
- 15:47Speaker 1: to play here the first quarter in scoreless, second drive
- 15:50Speaker 1: for the Cougars today, Borgie in the ball game. Four
- 15:54Speaker 1: wide here for Calvin three on the left hand side.
- 15:57Speaker 1: Here we go, stunt up front, They throw the screen.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Borgie lots of room to run thirty twenty nine and
- 16:03Speaker 1: stacked up right there. He had a long way to
- 16:06Speaker 1: go and then Utah's defense closed fast. It's a seven
- 16:09Speaker 1: yard game. Third down and three coming up, brought and
- 16:11Speaker 1: made the tackle.
- 16:12Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a good, good reason that they did close fast,
- 16:14Speaker 8: because no one really took care of Borgie Utah rush
- 16:18Speaker 8: Devin Lloyd on that play and someone's supposed to drop
- 16:21Speaker 8: out and get the back and he was left wide open.
- 16:24Speaker 8: They keep attacking this left side of the Utah defense
- 16:27Speaker 8: with Borgy.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Here we go third down at three, Washington State over
- 16:31Speaker 1: one on third down today might be in four down territory.
- 16:35Speaker 1: We shall see ten minutes exactly to play first quarter.
- 16:38Speaker 1: De Laura in the shotgun looks to the sideline. He's
- 16:40Speaker 1: got his play and now takes the snap, backpedals, surveys,
- 16:43Speaker 1: fires over the middle cot and then dropped. Reynard Bell
- 16:47Speaker 1: had first down yardage to the Utah twenty and it
- 16:49Speaker 1: was a little behind him and he dropped it. And
- 16:51Speaker 1: I'll bring up fourth down and we'll see if the
- 16:53Speaker 1: kicking team comes out or if they'll keep the offense
- 16:55Speaker 1: on the field. Yeah.
- 16:56Speaker 8: The problem with Delora there is that's a shot you
- 16:59Speaker 8: got hit like right now, just and he took too
- 17:01Speaker 8: deep a drop to hit it. It's right in that
- 17:03Speaker 8: scene where you're late and he didn't want to leave
- 17:05Speaker 8: the receiver. It would have been an interception. You almost
- 17:08Speaker 8: have to set your feet and just drill it in
- 17:10Speaker 8: that little hole.
- 17:11Speaker 1: Now, they got nothing to lose, final game of the season, season,
- 17:14Speaker 1: nothing off the line right now, so they're gonna go
- 17:16Speaker 1: for it here on fourth down. We may see this
- 17:18Speaker 1: a lot today. Fourth down and three from the Utah
- 17:20Speaker 1: twenty nine pistol formation. Now Borgi to the right of
- 17:24Speaker 1: Jayden DeLaura four wide. Look, DeLaura backs to pass, blitch coming.
- 17:28Speaker 1: DeLaura steps up. He's gonna try to run away from it,
- 17:31Speaker 1: and he will be sacked. He is dropped by Devin Lloyd.
- 17:36Speaker 1: It's a sack on fourth down and a turnover on
- 17:38Speaker 1: downs that time Morgan scally brought pressure and it got home.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Scott Mitchell.
- 17:43Speaker 8: Yeah, and Utah did a nice job because in the
- 17:45Speaker 8: past Borgie's been slipping out of the backfield. He stays
- 17:48Speaker 8: into block. Utah sends two linebackers and actually Devin Lloyd
- 17:52Speaker 8: kind of delays a little bit to find that crease,
- 17:54Speaker 8: and some guys get the quarterbacks and make plays and
- 17:57Speaker 8: some guys don't.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Time out on the field. Utah Football, would we get
- 18:00Speaker 1: back nine forty four to play here? The first Utah

- 18:39Speaker 1: forty four to play. Here in the first quarter, Utah
- 18:44Speaker 1: went three and out of their first drive. They've got
- 18:46Speaker 1: it first in ten from their own thirty nine here
- 18:48Speaker 1: as Bentley goes under center Ty Jordan in the backfield.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Seven in the box here for Washington State turning a
- 18:53Speaker 1: give Ty Jordan straight ahead. Ty's got running room on
- 18:56Speaker 1: his feet still beyond the forty five after the forty
- 18:58Speaker 1: seven yard line. That didn't look like much initially, Scott,
- 19:02Speaker 1: but that's eight yards on first down. John Woods made
- 19:04Speaker 1: the tackle. Yeah, if you just watch again. I say
- 19:08Speaker 1: this all time, but it's really true.
- 19:09Speaker 8: Just watch the surge up the line of scrimmage in
- 19:11Speaker 8: Utah just got a great surge there, got kind of
- 19:15Speaker 8: people on people and Ty georgees rode the way for
- 19:18Speaker 8: about eight yards.
- 19:18Speaker 1: Now, this is the down you love if you're a
- 19:20Speaker 1: coordinator or a quarterback. Second down in two playbook, wide
- 19:24Speaker 1: open here for whatever Utah wants to do. As Bentley
- 19:27Speaker 1: goes under center again, gives it again. Ty Jordan bouncing
- 19:30Speaker 1: to the outside. Ty's got the fifty. He's into Washington
- 19:33Speaker 1: State territory and down to the cougar forty five yardland.
- 19:36Speaker 1: They say the ball came out. Washington State's claiming the
- 19:39Speaker 1: ball came out. The referees say the ball came out.
- 19:41Speaker 1: That's a fumble. Washington States got it back. Third fumble
- 19:45Speaker 1: on the season for Ty Jordan. Gives it back to
- 19:48Speaker 1: the Washington State Cougars. Yeah.
- 19:53Speaker 8: On the first two plays the game, Ty Jordan, you know,
- 19:55Speaker 8: comes out on the edge there. Yeah, bab just gets
- 19:58Speaker 8: popped out.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Yep, and Washington State balls on it. There was not
- 20:02Speaker 1: much there. He just needs to hold it on to
- 20:05Speaker 1: it better. Scott.
- 20:06Speaker 8: Yeah, the only thing they could.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:08Speaker 8: I mean, when you're running like that and it's kind
- 20:11Speaker 8: of real simple. Your wrist is above your elbow and
- 20:14Speaker 8: when that risk drops low, that ball is gonna pop out.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Third fumble this year for Tye. All three have been lost.
- 20:20Speaker 1: And now Washington State's got it in business at their
- 20:23Speaker 1: own forty three yard line first and ten Dean McIntosh
- 20:27Speaker 1: at the game for the first time, and what do
- 20:32Speaker 1: we have.
- 20:33Speaker 8: I think they're gonna look at this one.
- 20:35Speaker 9: Pub ling on the field of the fumble and recovery
- 20:37Speaker 9: by the defense. The previous play is now under replay review.
- 20:42Speaker 1: We've seen the replay.
- 20:43Speaker 8: Well, there is a little bit where his the guy's
- 20:46Speaker 8: feet looked like they might have been out of bounds
- 20:49Speaker 8: when he recovered the ball. That's the only question question
- 20:53Speaker 8: mark they might be. So clearly he fumbles it, boom,
- 20:55Speaker 8: the ball's out, it's not even a question.
- 20:58Speaker 1: Well, he goes down and he might have resecured it
- 21:00Speaker 1: on his chest too. We'll have to double check that.
- 21:03Speaker 1: See when he goes down, Watch does he resecure it
- 21:06Speaker 1: on his chest here? I think he may have. Actually,
- 21:12Speaker 1: I think the ball popped out initially and then he
- 21:14Speaker 1: may have re secured the ball inside. Scott watched this juggle, juggle,
- 21:18Speaker 1: juggle on his chest down and then the ball pops
- 21:22Speaker 1: out again, pop it out, So pos it's possible he
- 21:25Speaker 1: did lose it initially juggled it, guy it back. If
- 21:29Speaker 1: they say he secured it to his chest when his
- 21:31Speaker 1: back was on the ground, he may be able to
- 21:33Speaker 1: get this ball. So the referee are going to look
- 21:36Speaker 1: at it downstairs. Here's our call for Mark.
- 21:37Speaker 9: Duddy went on the field stands it's a fumble in
- 21:40Speaker 9: a first down for Washington State.
- 21:42Speaker 1: Well after I tried to make the case, Mark Duddy
- 21:44Speaker 1: said that was a short review too. By the way,
- 21:46Speaker 1: usually these two minute reviews, they were pretty definitive about it.
- 21:50Speaker 8: Well, it was almost his statement was like almost like,
- 21:52Speaker 8: don't bother us with these trivial things.
- 21:55Speaker 1: We know what we're talking about. It's the last game
- 21:57Speaker 1: of the year. We want this thing to move quickly.
- 21:59Speaker 1: We've got reservations later Downtown. Nine minutes to play. First quarter,
- 22:04Speaker 1: turnover on Utah gives it back to Washington State first
- 22:06Speaker 1: and ten Cougar's at their own forty three. McIntosh the
- 22:09Speaker 1: back of the backfield pistol formation behind Jade Dolaura Utah
- 22:15Speaker 1: with a single high safety deep As McIntosh comes to
- 22:18Speaker 1: the right of Dolaura, they'll hand it on a delayed
- 22:22Speaker 1: handoff to McIntosh, look in a running room forward for him,
- 22:26Speaker 1: and he picks his way out about the forty seven
- 22:28Speaker 1: yard line for a game of four. On first down,
- 22:30Speaker 1: Mika Tofua from his defensive end spot made the tackle
- 22:33Speaker 1: there for Utah.
- 22:35Speaker 8: Yeah, it's gotta be hard because Mika, Mika is the
- 22:37Speaker 8: guy that the tackle polled. And when you see that
- 22:40Speaker 8: guy pull man, you just want to just go down
- 22:42Speaker 8: the line of scrimmage. But if he does, the quarterback
- 22:44Speaker 8: pulls the ball in and keeps it, it's kind of
- 22:46Speaker 8: it's kind of a tough situation for Mika to be
- 22:49Speaker 8: in there. Do I go after the back or do
- 22:50Speaker 8: I I stay home with the quarterback.
- 22:53Speaker 1: Morgy checks back at the ball game on second down
- 22:55Speaker 1: and six from the forty seven as DeLaura will operate
- 23:00Speaker 1: exclusively out of the shotgun in this run and shoot
- 23:02Speaker 1: offense takes the shotgun snap in back pedal surveys. He's
- 23:06Speaker 1: gonna step up away from the defense. He's gonna look
- 23:08Speaker 1: down the field, row down the field. It's caught, and
- 23:11Speaker 1: it's caught by Lucas Bake and the outside wide receiver
- 23:14Speaker 1: on a drag round across the field of the Utah
- 23:16Speaker 1: thirty six yard line. It's a gain of seventeen yards
- 23:20Speaker 1: in another Washington State first down. Yeah, he's really good
- 23:23Speaker 1: on the run.
- 23:23Speaker 8: Skuy, Well, he's really good. And it's just hard on
- 23:25Speaker 8: a defense when you get that much time, you get
- 23:27Speaker 8: that extra space. And this is a team that look,
- 23:29Speaker 8: they know how to pass the ball, they know how
- 23:31Speaker 8: to find those holes, and the quarterback will beat you
- 23:34Speaker 8: if you don't maintain your good rushlings as a defensive.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Line, shifting wide receivers from right to left, three on
- 23:40Speaker 1: the left, now one on the right on first and
- 23:42Speaker 1: ten with the Utah thirty six second trip on the
- 23:44Speaker 1: Utah side of midfield for the Cougars. Here today the
- 23:49Speaker 1: Laura in the gun Utah shifting around up front. They'll
- 23:51Speaker 1: rush four this time d Laura plenty of time. Pocket
- 23:54Speaker 1: begins to collapse. He scrambles to the outside, looking down
- 23:57Speaker 1: the field, firing down the field and caught Trevelle Harris
- 24:01Speaker 1: outside picks up about eight yards to the Utah twenty
- 24:04Speaker 1: eight yard line. These wide receivers on the sidelinescot are
- 24:07Speaker 1: wide open. These guys are all by themselves out there.
- 24:10Speaker 8: Yeah, and again it's because they understand where to look
- 24:13Speaker 8: for the hole. They understand the quarterback's going to move,
- 24:16Speaker 8: and they this the Utah defense is just giving him
- 24:19Speaker 8: easy lanes to get out of and and make extend plays.
- 24:23Speaker 8: I mean, I don't care who you are. It's hard
- 24:24Speaker 8: to cover people that long. When when the quarterback makes.
- 24:28Speaker 1: That extra time seven minutes of the clock running to
- 24:30Speaker 1: play here the first quarter, good drive here for the Coupars.
- 24:33Speaker 1: After the Utah turnover, second to two from the Utah
- 24:37Speaker 1: twenty seven to twenty eight yard line, McIntosh back of
- 24:40Speaker 1: the ball game. I'm gonna hand it to be on
- 24:41Speaker 1: McIntosh bouncing outside, losing yardage. You'll lose two back to
- 24:45Speaker 1: the thirty yard line. Defense collapsed on him, led by Tennessee.
- 24:49Speaker 1: Putoutao playing for the Putu Tao family today is brother
- 24:54Speaker 1: Hawati injured the last two weeks. So Tennessee carrying the
- 24:59Speaker 1: load right now, third down and we'll call it about
- 25:01Speaker 1: four coming up now for the coops.
- 25:03Speaker 8: And that's a good play by Utah. Everyone stayed and
- 25:05Speaker 8: fit where they're supposed to, because if they don't, there's
- 25:08Speaker 8: no one, there's no second level player. All the linebackers
- 25:11Speaker 8: were all at the line of scrimmage on that on
- 25:13Speaker 8: that right side for Utah, and they made the play
- 25:16Speaker 8: and it was just a good play and good discipline.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Three receivers now on the right hand side for Washington
- 25:21Speaker 1: State on third and four. They're zero for two on
- 25:23Speaker 1: third down today and off McIntosh running room twenty five
- 25:28Speaker 1: and what do we have? Whistles before the snap and
- 25:30Speaker 1: a time out taken by Washington State. Nick Rolovich time
- 25:33Speaker 1: out at that Washington State, they're first of the half.
- 25:38Speaker 1: That was gonna be about a thirty second time out.
- 25:40Speaker 1: It's gonna be about a fifteen yarde for Tea on macintage.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Utah catches a break on that play.
- 25:45Speaker 8: And Rollovitch is probably kicking himself there, going I'll shoot
- 25:47Speaker 8: all right, Okay, that was a good play.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Hey. Our friends at c R. England have the one
- 25:51Speaker 1: initiative to fight childhood hunger. They're gonna feed one child
- 25:54Speaker 1: here in Utah for every single yard the UT's game
- 25:57Speaker 1: on offense this year. So far this year, Utah's came
- 26:00Speaker 1: fourteen hundred and twenty nine yards coming into the game.
- 26:02Speaker 2: That's fourteen hundred and twenty nine children that will be vet.
- 26:06Speaker 1: And then we found that from Zach England in the
- 26:07Speaker 1: pregame show after Scott Mitchell baited him if they're gonna
- 26:11Speaker 1: actually double it up, so whatever the final number is
- 26:13Speaker 1: today on total yardage, they're then gonna double that. And
- 26:16Speaker 1: that's how many children they're gonna be. Times it by
- 26:18Speaker 1: two is what you're gonna do. And I can't.
- 26:21Speaker 8: I can't do maths, so I gotta do it on
- 26:23Speaker 8: my on my phone.
- 26:25Speaker 1: I don't know what that is. It's a big number.
- 26:27Speaker 1: That twice. It's gonna be a big number. So here
- 26:32Speaker 1: we go out of the time out. That was the
- 26:34Speaker 1: first for Washington State. The clock stopped with six ZHO
- 26:36Speaker 1: three to play. Max Borgye checks back in the ball game.
- 26:39Speaker 1: He's always a target for this Washington State offense. Two
- 26:43Speaker 1: receivers left, two receivers right. They don't stack this formation.
- 26:47Speaker 1: Utah maybe showing some pressure this time. Five of the
- 26:51Speaker 1: line of scrimmage for Utah. Now a safety creeks, Now
- 26:54Speaker 1: two safeties creek the Laura changing the play at the
- 26:58Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, play clock to seven, takes the snap
- 27:01Speaker 1: in back pedals. Here comes Utah J eight Laura lots
- 27:04Speaker 1: of time, still, lots of time, scrambling out to his right,
- 27:06Speaker 1: firing down the field, caught at the twenty one yard
- 27:09Speaker 1: line and belt it out of bounds at the twenty
- 27:10Speaker 1: yard line a Reynard Bell a pickup of ten yards
- 27:14Speaker 1: on the plane. Again it's a wide receiver standing all
- 27:17Speaker 1: by himself on the sideline.
- 27:19Speaker 8: Yeah, and Utah brings pressure. I mean they bring the
- 27:22Speaker 8: Vonte Davis, the free safety on a blitz and Washington
- 27:25Speaker 8: State does a great job with just five linemen and
- 27:28Speaker 8: a running back to pick it up. And then Laura
- 27:31Speaker 8: de Laura Fount, you know, he finds a guy open again.
- 27:34Speaker 1: So first and ten in the red zone down for
- 27:37Speaker 1: the Utah nineteen yard line. Go to Huskies or the
- 27:39Speaker 1: intes Cougars four wide, look BG you to the right
- 27:44Speaker 1: of DeLaura. Utah with only four down at the line
- 27:47Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Here they come Laura looking surveying, firing outside,
- 27:50Speaker 1: caught at the fifteen, cuts back inside to the ten.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Still on his feet inside the ten to the eight
- 27:55Speaker 1: is Trebelle Harris for a gain of eleven yards and
- 27:58Speaker 1: another first and before downing goal for Washington State, tackle
- 28:02Speaker 1: by Devin Lloyd.
- 28:03Speaker 8: If you're teaching someone how to come back to the football,
- 28:07Speaker 8: that's it right there. Harris clearly is you know he's
- 28:11Speaker 8: gonna catch a pass, and really it should have been
- 28:12Speaker 8: a short game, but he keeps coming back to the football.
- 28:15Speaker 8: As soon as he catches it, he makes an aggressive
- 28:17Speaker 8: move upfield and avoids attack.
- 28:20Speaker 1: So first and goal Washington States on their third drive
- 28:24Speaker 1: of the day from the Utah eight yard line. Shifting formations.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Washington State's got what they want now, delayed handoff. Borgie
- 28:33Speaker 1: picks his way to the outside five four three.
- 28:36Speaker 2: Two one touchdown.
- 28:38Speaker 1: He went untouched into the end zone and Washington State
- 28:42Speaker 1: made that look really easy against the Utah defense. The
- 28:46Speaker 1: turnover by Tyd Jordan leads to a touchdown by Washington
- 28:49Speaker 1: State and with four point thirty four to play here
- 28:52Speaker 1: the first it's six nothing Coops.
- 28:54Speaker 8: Yeah, there's just not good coordination here between the blitzes
- 28:58Speaker 8: and the edge rushers and who has contained and the
- 29:01Speaker 8: blitcher's coming on the inside, so the edge guy's got
- 29:04Speaker 8: to be to Paii and he just gets sucked to
- 29:07Speaker 8: the inside.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Blake maza on to attempt the extra point.
- 29:12Speaker 1: It's up and it is good.
- 29:15Speaker 2: Four thirty four to play here.
- 29:17Speaker 1: The first from Rice Ecles Stadium in Salt Lake City
- 29:20Speaker 1: at the University of Utah Health Broadcast move It's Washington
- 29:22Speaker 1: State seven Utah nothing from Learfield img College. Today's Utah
- 29:30Speaker 1: football broadcast is being presented by University of Utah Health,
- 29:33Speaker 1: the official healthcare provider for the uts.
- 29:35Speaker 2: And you there's only one you'd be treated that way?
- 29:38Speaker 1: Is it them? Online at u of you health dot org.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Slash utes that scoring drive for Washington State after the
- 29:44Speaker 1: tie Jordan turnover. Seven plays, fifty seven yards and four
- 29:48Speaker 1: to twenty six off the game clock. Washington State just
- 29:51Speaker 1: methodically Scott going down the field. They didn't really put
- 29:53Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on Jeep the Laura that time.
- 29:55Speaker 1: He had plenty of time to throw. And when you
- 29:57Speaker 1: give a quarterback with a good what a good group
- 30:00Speaker 1: of wide receivers time to throw in an offense like this,
- 30:04Speaker 1: it's gonna be a it's gonna be a recipe for disaster. Yeah,
- 30:07Speaker 1: Utah's got it.
- 30:08Speaker 8: They've they've got to maintained their coverages and they can't
- 30:11Speaker 8: let guys get lost when the quarterback scrambles. But Utah
- 30:14Speaker 8: just feels like it doesn't have the same energy defensively.
- 30:18Speaker 8: It's like they're they're lining up, they're going through the motions.
- 30:20Speaker 8: But there's not this relentless pursuit. There's not this sound
- 30:25Speaker 8: control of gaps, and guys are kind of getting out
- 30:28Speaker 8: of place and and it's creating these big.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Holes which we saw week ago. They had great energy
- 30:32Speaker 1: in Juice against Colorado, especially on defense a week ago,
- 30:35Speaker 1: and we're we're just not seeing it right now. So
- 30:38Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. Still really early four thirty four
- 30:40Speaker 1: to play here in the first quarter, but nice to
- 30:44Speaker 1: see a little bit more energy and get after it
- 30:46Speaker 1: this by that Utah defense. But it would also be
- 30:49Speaker 1: nice to see ty Jordan to hold on to the
- 30:51Speaker 1: football three fumbles in five games. Here for Ty Jordan
- 30:55Speaker 1: breaking Covey back deep to receive this kickoff Andrew Boyle.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Boyle puts his right foot into it. It's high, it's
- 31:03Speaker 1: end over end, it's four yards deep and that'll be
- 31:05Speaker 1: a fair catch. If Britain's moving forward, he'll probably bring
- 31:10Speaker 1: it out. But on the back pedal and four yards deep,
- 31:12Speaker 1: they'll take the twenty five yard line.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Every time.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Our broadcast today being brought to you by Pepsi. Hey
- 31:16Speaker 1: Utah fans grabbing i s called Pepsi because it's game time.
- 31:20Speaker 1: PEPSI made for watching Utah football. Bill Riley Scott Mitchell
- 31:24Speaker 1: with you on a Saturday here in late December. Latest
- 31:27Speaker 1: home game I can ever remember for Utah football. They're
- 31:30Speaker 1: down seven to nothing at starting first and ten at
- 31:32Speaker 1: their own twenty five yard line. Ty Jordan back of
- 31:34Speaker 1: the ball game. See if they give him the ball
- 31:36Speaker 1: with a two tight, two wide receiver set here on
- 31:38Speaker 1: first down they do, Ty's got it straight ahead. Not
- 31:42Speaker 1: much doing there. He picks up a yard and maybe
- 31:44Speaker 1: two to the twenty two yard line. Good job on
- 31:47Speaker 1: the inside by defensive end Brendan Jackson, wrapping him up
- 31:49Speaker 1: and taking him down.
- 31:50Speaker 8: And I actually like this that, you know, get back
- 31:53Speaker 8: on the horse that knocks you off, you know, get
- 31:56Speaker 8: gain that confidence. But there's not a whole lot of
- 31:58Speaker 8: running backs left's to say take him out.
- 32:00Speaker 1: They don't have that many guys they can turn to.
- 32:02Speaker 1: After Brumfield and Wilmore left the program. This week, Bentley
- 32:09Speaker 1: goes under center on second down and eight Jordan seven
- 32:12Speaker 1: yards behind him, turning a gift to Tye. Ty's got
- 32:15Speaker 1: it picking his way Forward's got a yard and that's it.
- 32:19Speaker 1: He actually got back to the line of scrimmage and
- 32:21Speaker 1: that's it. Awfully conservative on the first two plays here
- 32:25Speaker 1: down a touchdown Scott, third down and eight coming up.
- 32:27Speaker 1: But we've got an injured kog on the play after
- 32:30Speaker 1: throwing Ty Jordan backwards down at about the twenty one
- 32:36Speaker 1: yard line. See what we've got looks like Dallas Hobbs.
- 32:43Speaker 1: Maybe the nose tackle as he's down in subaine. We'll
- 32:46Speaker 1: take the time out and come back on the other
- 32:48Speaker 1: side with third down for Utah seven. Nothing wazoo.
- 32:51Speaker 2: This is Utah football from Learfield I AMG College.

- 33:09Speaker 1: is indeed defensive tackle Dallas Hobbs, and we have the
- 33:12Speaker 1: field mics down there with nobody in the stands. You
- 33:15Speaker 1: could really hear him writhing in pain. The young man
- 33:18Speaker 1: who's from Cedar Rapids, Iowa is being helped off the field,
- 33:21Speaker 1: putting very little weight on his legs by his team
- 33:24Speaker 1: into buy a couple of teammates. He was the one
- 33:26Speaker 1: who made the tackle on Ty Jordan and got himself
- 33:28Speaker 1: hurt in the process. They're going to have to turn
- 33:30Speaker 1: now to Christian Mahea backup defensive tackle to help him
- 33:34Speaker 1: out here on third demon eight, Yeah and click.
- 33:37Speaker 8: Clearly he's uh, he's in a lot of playing because
- 33:40Speaker 8: that's at pain, because that's that was a long walk
- 33:42Speaker 8: and he's walking like extremely gingerly there.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not even halfway off the field yet. It
- 33:48Speaker 1: they've been walking from the opposite side to the near
- 33:50Speaker 1: side here. As we get going here, Utah's down seven
- 33:54Speaker 1: to nothing with three forty two to play. They've turned
- 33:56Speaker 1: it over and given Washington State an extra opportunity here
- 34:00Speaker 1: and as a result, Washington State cash did on the
- 34:02Speaker 1: last drive on a max Borghi seventy yard touchdown run.
- 34:06Speaker 1: Utah is now facing third down and eight. They're one
- 34:08Speaker 1: out of filecy there. They're oer for one on third
- 34:11Speaker 1: down of the utes and Scott Washington State's almost daring
- 34:15Speaker 1: Utah to throw the football right now. They're putting seven
- 34:17Speaker 1: and eight guys in the line of scrimmage, no question.
- 34:18Speaker 8: And that's what I talked about before the game. They're
- 34:20Speaker 8: gonna They're gonna say Ty Jordan is not gonna eat
- 34:22Speaker 8: U running the football and Utah went tried to throw
- 34:25Speaker 8: early in the first series and then just have gone
- 34:28Speaker 8: straight away from it. They've had four straight runs in
- 34:30Speaker 8: the last two series here, and you know Utah taking shots,
- 34:34Speaker 8: taking chances on first down is the best time because
- 34:37Speaker 8: you don't get that all out pass rush and you
- 34:39Speaker 8: have more time to throw the ball.
- 34:41Speaker 1: Let's see what Jake Dicker at the defensive coordinator dials
- 34:44Speaker 1: up here for Washington State on third down and eight
- 34:48Speaker 1: Utah from their own twenty two yard line. They're showing pressure.
- 34:50Speaker 1: In fact, everybody up, no safeties back here. Now, they'll
- 34:53Speaker 1: drop a couple of deep and rush four lots of
- 34:56Speaker 1: time for Bentley fires over the middle through the hands
- 34:58Speaker 1: of Covey nearly intercepted an incomplete he goes in. Britain
- 35:01Speaker 1: took a real shot that time by jahat Woods. He's
- 35:04Speaker 1: slow to get up. He'll walk to the sideline and
- 35:07Speaker 1: Utah goes three and out. They've got to give it
- 35:09Speaker 1: back to Wazoo again. Even if he catches that ball, Scott,
- 35:12Speaker 1: it was going to be a first down.
- 35:13Speaker 8: Well no, And the problem is is uh cove He's
- 35:16Speaker 8: trying to sit in the zone and he just go
- 35:19Speaker 8: he goes too far and it's it's just a tough
- 35:21Speaker 8: throw there. I mean he has to go back on
- 35:23Speaker 8: it against his body. I almost could call that a
- 35:26Speaker 8: defenseless receiver.
- 35:28Speaker 1: Travell Harris back to receive the Ben Lunnon punt. It's
- 35:31Speaker 1: a good one for Benny, this time high and hanging
- 35:34Speaker 1: Harrison back up and taking in his own twenty four
- 35:37Speaker 1: up the field comes Harris. He's beyond the thirty and
- 35:40Speaker 1: out to about the thirty three maybe thirty four yard line,
- 35:43Speaker 1: calling an eleven yard Returney for Washington State get a
- 35:46Speaker 1: pretty good field position. Devin Lloyd made the tackle on
- 35:49Speaker 1: special teams, but Jaden DeLaura has started his own twenty three,
- 35:53Speaker 1: his own thirty three, his own forty three, and now
- 35:56Speaker 1: again at the thirty four yard line. So Washington States
- 35:59Speaker 1: had good start field position on all four of their drives.
- 36:01Speaker 8: Here's got yeah, and they've also had really good pass protection.
- 36:05Speaker 8: And when it's broken down, and I don't know that
- 36:07Speaker 8: it's even broken down that much, de Lars had a
- 36:10Speaker 8: lot of time to move around back there and find receivers.
- 36:13Speaker 1: And again Utah just showing a four man down front
- 36:15Speaker 1: of your on first and ten, Dean McIntosh the back
- 36:19Speaker 1: of the back up two receivers left and right here
- 36:21Speaker 1: for the Washington State Cougars on first and ten with
- 36:23Speaker 1: three twenty to play here the first quarter. Delora takes
- 36:26Speaker 1: the snap, hands it off, now, throws, pulls it out
- 36:29Speaker 1: and completes it out to about the thirty nine almost
- 36:31Speaker 1: forty yard line. It was a good read as he
- 36:34Speaker 1: hit Renard Bell. Is that Renard Bell? It is for
- 36:39Speaker 1: a game. They'll bucket at about the thirty eight again,
- 36:40Speaker 1: he came back to the ball and a game of
- 36:43Speaker 1: about we'll call it four almost five yards on first down.
- 36:46Speaker 8: That was a good read by Delora. Yeah, it's just
- 36:48Speaker 8: a run pass option there. And again Utah is playing
- 36:51Speaker 8: very very soft in the secondary on these wide receivers
- 36:54Speaker 8: and those throws are as they're lined up right now
- 36:57Speaker 8: are going to be there all day for Washington State.
- 36:59Speaker 2: Second down and six.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Now they operate out of the pistol again to Laura
- 37:04Speaker 1: surveys the defense. Utah, with five of the line of scrimmage,
- 37:07Speaker 1: now takes the snap, back pedals and hands off to
- 37:10Speaker 1: Dion McIntosh, who's wrapped up and taken down by Nephi Sewel.
- 37:14Speaker 1: After a game of three almost four yards to the
- 37:16Speaker 1: forty two yard line. I'll bring up third down to two.
- 37:19Speaker 1: And that was the same play that they scored the
- 37:21Speaker 1: touchdown on earlier. This time Sewell does a better job,
- 37:24Speaker 1: stays in the hole, stays home and then makes the
- 37:27Speaker 1: play and so so better better understanding of where they
- 37:30Speaker 1: fit in the in the scheme there for Utah. Utah
- 37:32Speaker 1: brought the corner blitz too as well from that side
- 37:35Speaker 1: that got into the play. Third down and two coops
- 37:38Speaker 1: are one out of three on third down, two h
- 37:40Speaker 1: five to play here the first quarter, they've got to
- 37:43Speaker 1: get to the forty four for a first down. De
- 37:45Speaker 1: Laura surveys the defense, takes the snaff, hands off to Macintosh,
- 37:50Speaker 1: who's gonna be stacked up in sure the first down
- 37:52Speaker 1: yardage by about a yard and a half. Good read
- 37:56Speaker 1: up front, Tennessee putoutaw made the tackle. Now what does
- 37:59Speaker 1: nig roll of it? With a seven to nothing lead,
- 38:01Speaker 1: and on his side of midfield, he's gonna send out
- 38:04Speaker 1: his punt team and Oscar Dresika d Dragisovich.
- 38:09Speaker 8: Yeah, and someone's talking to Delora on the sideline, going, hey,
- 38:12Speaker 8: we said, we said right, and I think he went
- 38:14Speaker 8: the wrong way or didn't didn't hold onto the ball.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Dragisovich on the punt, Cobby back to receive. This one's
- 38:20Speaker 1: a wobbler. Britain's gonna let it go and it hits,
- 38:22Speaker 1: it goes out of bounds. So that's actually gonna take
- 38:24Speaker 1: a pretty decent role, considering it was a bit of
- 38:26Speaker 1: a wounded doug out of bounds at the Utah fifteen
- 38:29Speaker 1: yard line with a minute twenty two to play here
- 38:31Speaker 1: in the first quarter and a seven nothing Washington State
- 38:34Speaker 1: lead Scott Utahs. This is their fourth drive of the
- 38:37Speaker 1: first quarter. They only have a first down yet, no and.
- 38:40Speaker 8: There's just there's kind of not that same energy, better
- 38:42Speaker 8: energy there by the defense, better better gap and you know,
- 38:47Speaker 8: assignment responsibility there. But Utah take some shots open this
- 38:50Speaker 8: thing up a little bit here against this Washington State team.
- 38:54Speaker 1: They had a first down ale to play that Ty
- 38:56Speaker 1: Jordan fumbled. Since then nothing, only thirty four total yards
- 39:00Speaker 1: here in the first quarter. Two tights, two wides. Washington
- 39:04Speaker 1: State was seven. Near the line of scrimmage, Bentley under
- 39:07Speaker 1: center turns and gives it now play actions. He's looking
- 39:10Speaker 1: down the field, fires on a comeback rounde caught by
- 39:12Speaker 1: Brian Thompson, and that would be very close to first
- 39:15Speaker 1: down yard and still give it to him. Dan.
- 39:17Speaker 8: It's wide open. I mean, I mean, there's so much
- 39:19Speaker 8: more room there.
- 39:21Speaker 1: It's a twelve yard game for Brian Thompson on a
- 39:24Speaker 1: good comeback. You were talking about Trevelle Harris coming back
- 39:26Speaker 1: to the ball. Brian did that right there.
- 39:28Speaker 8: Yeah, and a more accurate throw by Jake Bentley. And
- 39:31Speaker 8: that's a bigger play than just twelve.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Yards, minute to play clock running here first in ten Utah.
- 39:37Speaker 1: Let's see if they get a little something going on
- 39:39Speaker 1: this drive. Jake changing the play at the line of scrimmage,
- 39:41Speaker 1: Jordan's seven yards back play action again over the middle.
- 39:44Speaker 1: Cord Tomson had it. It was behind him and he
- 39:46Speaker 1: dropped it. He was wide open running across the field
- 39:50Speaker 1: and hit him in the hands. But that ball was
- 39:52Speaker 1: behind him.
- 39:52Speaker 8: It was way behind him. And it's a great play
- 39:54Speaker 8: action throw here. I don't know why it's behind him.
- 39:57Speaker 8: I mean, it's just such an easy, no pressure and
- 39:59Speaker 8: it's just it's like, come on, and you catch it
- 40:01Speaker 8: on the run there, and that's that's a twenty thirty
- 40:04Speaker 8: yard player right there.
- 40:06Speaker 1: Brian Thompson averaging twenty two yards of catch coming in
- 40:09Speaker 1: today second down in ten o'clock stop, forty nine seconds
- 40:13Speaker 1: to play, Washington State showing blitz.
- 40:15Speaker 2: Ty Jordan's got it. Cuts to the inside.
- 40:17Speaker 1: He's got the thirty five and thirty six yard line
- 40:21Speaker 1: almost first down yard is to the thirty seven. He's
- 40:23Speaker 1: gonna be really close. They may check a measurement here.
- 40:26Speaker 1: I'm talking about the chains ten yard game by TYD Jordan.
- 40:30Speaker 8: Yeah, and you just give it like he has a
- 40:31Speaker 8: hole right there. Just great vision and cut back. Everyone
- 40:35Speaker 8: is got their man and engaged with them, so no
- 40:39Speaker 8: one can just get off and make a tackle. And
- 40:41Speaker 8: but just man when he gets out in that open
- 40:43Speaker 8: field like that's he's a special road.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Five carries thirty yards here the first quarter for Jordan
- 40:47Speaker 1: first and ten clock running at nineteen seconds to play.
- 40:51Speaker 1: Here the first quarter, Covey motions into the backfield. Down
- 40:54Speaker 1: now motions out again. They're gonna look to set up
- 40:57Speaker 1: the screen. They get it complete to Keithy. He's got
- 40:59Speaker 1: the forty four beyond the forty five to the forty
- 41:02Speaker 1: nine yard lide goes pray at Keithy for a game
- 41:05Speaker 1: of twelve yards and another Utah first down.
- 41:08Speaker 2: Good screen pass to the tight end.
- 41:10Speaker 8: Yeah, great screen pass and also great block on the
- 41:13Speaker 8: offensive line right there, because look like you that Keithy
- 41:16Speaker 8: was gonna get tackled right there. Sure, but really nice,
- 41:19Speaker 8: nice well designed play too.
- 41:21Speaker 1: Justice Rogers made the tackle and that takes us to
- 41:24Speaker 1: the end of the first quarter here at Rise ecl
- 41:26Speaker 1: Stadium on the regular season finale Saturday. Here in late December,
- 41:30Speaker 1: it's Washington State seven and Utah nothing. We're back with
- 41:34Speaker 1: second quarter action next from Learfield IMG College. Hey, Utah fans,

- 41:58Speaker 1: Nobody's been unstoppable yet here today both teams have been
- 42:01Speaker 1: stopped after a quarter of play. Utah Trail seven nothing
- 42:04Speaker 1: from the University of Utah Health Broadcast Booth. I'm Bill
- 42:07Speaker 1: Riley Scott Mitchell with me, but Utah looks like it's
- 42:09Speaker 1: got a little something something working here to be in
- 42:11Speaker 1: things here in the second quarter, first in ten from
- 42:14Speaker 1: their own forty nine yard line. That first quarter saw
- 42:16Speaker 1: Bentley go three of six twenty eight yards in one miss.
- 42:20Speaker 1: Of his three incompletions, one was a bad miss. That
- 42:22Speaker 1: was the one to Brian Thompson. Ty Jordan five carries
- 42:25Speaker 1: for thirty yards. Jake Bentley won, rush for ten yards.
- 42:28Speaker 1: Keithy's got two grabs sixteen yards, Thompson won for twelve.
- 42:32Speaker 1: But as you were telling me, Scott, there's plays to
- 42:34Speaker 1: be made, there's guys open for this Utah offense.
- 42:36Speaker 8: Well, it's about Paul location and Bentley. Although he's had
- 42:40Speaker 8: some completions, he has better Paul location to those two
- 42:44Speaker 8: throws to Thompson on the first two plays of the drive,
- 42:48Speaker 8: that's probably probably forty yards worth of place because those
- 42:52Speaker 8: wide receivers plays, they're one on one. Those linebackers have
- 42:55Speaker 8: sucked up into the line of scrimmage to stop the
- 42:57Speaker 8: run and there's a ton of space. The ball in
- 43:00Speaker 8: the right location, let the receiver run with the ball
- 43:02Speaker 8: and you're in business. And the more you get the
- 43:05Speaker 8: ball to Brian Thompson, the more you get the ball
- 43:07Speaker 8: to him in the right location, the better and the
- 43:09Speaker 8: more confident and comfortable he's gonna be.
- 43:11Speaker 1: Two. Jadeen Delora had a good first quarter eight of
- 43:15Speaker 1: eleven seventy two yards. Max Borgy three rush is thirty
- 43:18Speaker 1: three yards and a touchdown, and he had a grab
- 43:21Speaker 1: for seven yards. It's it's pretty fair to say this
- 43:23Speaker 1: Washington State offense is, even though they've only played three
- 43:26Speaker 1: games coming in, it's got they've missed Max forty. Yeah.
- 43:28Speaker 8: I mean, he's really a special talent and the way
- 43:31Speaker 8: they spread everything out. You put him in these one
- 43:34Speaker 8: on one matchups with guys defensively, and he's got a
- 43:36Speaker 8: beating most of the time one on one.
- 43:39Speaker 1: So we begin the second quarter of Utah moving north
- 43:42Speaker 1: to south, left the right as you listen to it,
- 43:44Speaker 1: here first and ten from their own forty nine yard line.
- 43:48Speaker 1: Bentley under center, Covey in motion across the formation, play action,
- 43:51Speaker 1: roll to the right for Jake, dumps it off to Keithy.
- 43:53Speaker 1: Keith he's got forty five and down. We took a
- 43:56Speaker 1: big shot right in the back. Somebody got him, but
- 44:02Speaker 1: he's still down. The guy that got him in the back,
- 44:03Speaker 1: Daniel Icem, is still down too. I'm gonna tell you,
- 44:07Speaker 1: I think Icem probably got the worst of it. They're
- 44:09Speaker 1: checking his head and neck right now. Brant Keithy just
- 44:11Speaker 1: took the shot in the back. He ended up picking
- 44:14Speaker 1: up on the play about eight yards. But the training
- 44:17Speaker 1: staffs are gonna come out and check on both these
- 44:19Speaker 1: guys right now. Brandt's gonna be sitting up here momentarily,
- 44:24Speaker 1: but down I'm a little bit more concerned about Icem
- 44:26Speaker 1: because it looked like that was a head or neck
- 44:27Speaker 1: issue after that tackle.
- 44:28Speaker 8: Well, we know so often these dbs they go after
- 44:32Speaker 8: the tight ends and you see the hurdles by these
- 44:36Speaker 8: tight ends because these guys are taking a shot at
- 44:38Speaker 8: their knees and everything, and that's what happened there. The
- 44:40Speaker 8: thing is is Keithy kind of went down and turned
- 44:43Speaker 8: his back, and you got a player. I mean, I
- 44:45Speaker 8: hate to say it, but he's leading with his head
- 44:47Speaker 8: even though he's going down to not a but he's
- 44:49Speaker 8: still leading with his head.
- 44:50Speaker 1: Time out on the field, Keithy walking off under his
- 44:53Speaker 1: own power. We're back after this from Learfield. I amg
- 44:55Speaker 1: College fourteen forty seven to play here. In the first half.
- 45:06Speaker 1: That was a long first quarter and injuries and other
- 45:09Speaker 1: things played a role in that. Thankfully, both brand Keithy
- 45:13Speaker 1: and Ium were able to get off the field under
- 45:16Speaker 1: their own power. It looked like Keithy took a shot
- 45:18Speaker 1: from the helmet in his lower back or but hawks,
- 45:22Speaker 1: as Forrest Gump might say, he was kind of hobbled
- 45:25Speaker 1: as he got off the field. Im popped up and
- 45:28Speaker 1: he ran to the bench. But I'm not sure he's
- 45:29Speaker 1: gonna be back out there anytime soon. Utah is gonna
- 45:32Speaker 1: have it in Wazoo Territory. Second down and we'll call
- 45:35Speaker 1: it about two for the Washington State forty three yard line.
- 45:39Speaker 1: This is the drive Utah needed. Drive Utah was frankly
- 45:42Speaker 1: working on earlier before the tie Jordan fumble. Jordan in
- 45:46Speaker 1: the ballgame. Two receivers left tight ends on the right
- 45:49Speaker 1: hand side Jordan to the backfield for Jake Bentley. There. Oh,
- 45:54Speaker 1: Bentley loses the football.
- 45:55Speaker 2: He scrambled and then he got sacked.
- 45:57Speaker 1: He was getting ready to throw the screen past to Covey.
- 46:00Speaker 1: He just dropped. The football just slipped right out of
- 46:02Speaker 1: his hands, and he's gonna end up losing six all
- 46:05Speaker 1: the way back to the forty nine yard line.
- 46:08Speaker 8: Actually, what happened is ty Jordan cut right in front
- 46:11Speaker 8: of him and he actually did he hit as his
- 46:13Speaker 8: arm was going back to throw it, it hit the
- 46:14Speaker 8: running back.
- 46:15Speaker 1: Now that's happened to me before. And you just did
- 46:17Speaker 1: the great Barry Sanders do that to you?
- 46:19Speaker 8: Now, Barry's too short. It's like I was way over
- 46:21Speaker 8: Barry's head, but throwing the football without the laces.
- 46:26Speaker 1: So here we go, third down and eight. Utah's gotta
- 46:29Speaker 1: get it to the forty one yard line. Bentley in
- 46:31Speaker 1: the shotgun. Here comes the blitz Jake with time throws
- 46:34Speaker 1: it outside. It's incomplete black lies the we're gonna have
- 46:37Speaker 1: pass interference on Washington State defender was all over Brian
- 46:41Speaker 1: Thompson on the outside that time. And that's gonna be
- 46:43Speaker 1: a PI if not a defense if hold either way,
- 46:45Speaker 1: it's gonna.
- 46:46Speaker 8: Be a first down for Utah. Yeah, nice protection here
- 46:49Speaker 8: by Utah. That route took a little bit of time
- 46:51Speaker 8: and tight man coverage. It takes your wide receivers.
- 46:54Speaker 9: Pass interference defense number zero spotfoul automatic first.
- 47:00Speaker 2: Jalen Watson.
- 47:04Speaker 1: Responsible for that, and Utah will have a first at
- 47:08Speaker 1: exactly where they needed it to go, the forty one
- 47:10Speaker 1: yard line.
- 47:10Speaker 8: And clearly he just tugs on Thompson pulls himself in
- 47:14Speaker 8: front of him and easy called.
- 47:16Speaker 1: You know what might work here? Soon with Thompson, we'll
- 47:18Speaker 1: stop and go. I love stopping goes on third down,
- 47:22Speaker 1: Samson the coup of the ballgame. Now for Utah first
- 47:25Speaker 1: and ten for the Wazoo forty one play action pass
- 47:29Speaker 1: again for Jake. He's looking along up the sidelines looking
- 47:32Speaker 1: for Brian Thompson. Incomplete, and Thompson ran out of bounds.
- 47:36Speaker 1: Flag flies in. Two at the end, the hat came
- 47:38Speaker 1: off and then the flag flies in. We're either gonna
- 47:41Speaker 1: have pass interference or they're gonna pick this flag up.
- 47:43Speaker 1: We'll see.
- 47:47Speaker 2: Here's our referee.
- 47:48Speaker 1: Getting the call from the back judge and this maid go.
- 47:52Speaker 1: You know, val for past interference.
- 47:55Speaker 9: The pass was out of bounds, incomplete, it's second down him.
- 47:59Speaker 8: I don't know how you can say it's out of
- 48:00Speaker 8: bounds because if the receiver's running he you know, a
- 48:03Speaker 8: lot of throws would be out of bounds. Let's see
- 48:06Speaker 8: how how far to be honest, Paul landed three yards inside,
- 48:12Speaker 8: but the receiver was out Atompson was out of bounds.
- 48:15Speaker 8: So to be second down in ten Utah for the
- 48:16Speaker 8: forty one, Yeah, but the past interapperence is what pushed him.
- 48:20Speaker 1: Out of bounds. It is immaterial now I think it's
- 48:24Speaker 1: a bad call. Second down in ten, bothering him across
- 48:29Speaker 1: the formation hand off Ty Jordan going to try to
- 48:32Speaker 1: get out to the edge. Mackay Bernard now thirty five
- 48:34Speaker 1: on his feet, falling forward and close the first down
- 48:38Speaker 1: yardage at the thirty two yard line. He needed the
- 48:40Speaker 1: thirty one for a first down. That's going to be
- 48:41Speaker 1: a nine yard gain for McKay Bernard. And do we
- 48:45Speaker 1: have a flag on the plane? We do? And do
- 48:47Speaker 1: we have a hold on Utah?
- 48:51Speaker 2: I think we do.
- 48:55Speaker 1: Oh, a chop block on Utah is what we have?
- 48:57Speaker 1: A block below the waist. It was behind the play too,
- 49:00Speaker 1: and that's the bad part of it. The play was
- 49:02Speaker 1: coming to the right, the flag was thrown on the
- 49:04Speaker 1: opposite side. It was really no need for the chop lock.
- 49:08Speaker 8: Yeah, it's unfortunate because Mika Bernard. That was a really
- 49:11Speaker 8: really nice play by him. You can tell when the
- 49:14Speaker 8: officials blow their whistle to end to play, they don't
- 49:17Speaker 8: just blow it, they go it kind of has this no, no,
- 49:20Speaker 8: no come back here we've got problem. So that whistle's
- 49:26Speaker 8: just one little whistle.
- 49:27Speaker 1: All the way back to the Utah forty four yard line.
- 49:30Speaker 1: Second down in twenty five, they flex two tight ends
- 49:34Speaker 1: out to the left, three receivers to the right. Was
- 49:37Speaker 1: Shington State's gonna rush for on Jake Bentley hill back
- 49:40Speaker 1: to pass, lots of time for Jakes, surveys, fires short
- 49:43Speaker 1: behind Covey, and he nearly got him killed. Jeh hod
- 49:47Speaker 1: Woods was there again. Covey pops up. He's okay, but
- 49:50Speaker 1: that's twice now. A bad pass by Bentley has almost
- 49:53Speaker 1: gotten Covey hurt.
- 49:54Speaker 8: It's cover two, okay, And if you don't know what
- 49:56Speaker 8: that means, it means there's two safeties deep and the
- 49:59Speaker 8: middle of the field is always open, and he had
- 50:01Speaker 8: guys wide open. But he is looking at Covey the
- 50:03Speaker 8: whole after. He's not even looking at the That's that's
- 50:06Speaker 8: all on Jake Bentley there. I know he's just trying
- 50:08Speaker 8: to get a positive play, but down the field's a
- 50:10Speaker 8: positive play too. Look down the field a little bit.
- 50:12Speaker 1: That was only gonna pick up three or four yards
- 50:14Speaker 1: at the most. Now it's third and twenty five. I'm
- 50:17Speaker 1: gonna throw the screen. It's caught here by ty Jordan
- 50:20Speaker 1: fifty forty five forty still on his feet and out
- 50:23Speaker 1: of bounds in the thirty eight yard line. We've either
- 50:25Speaker 1: got an illegal shift on Utah or offside here on
- 50:28Speaker 1: Washington State, he's still gonna be well shy at first
- 50:31Speaker 1: down yardage.
- 50:32Speaker 2: Let's see where the call is now, it's gonna go
- 50:42Speaker 2: against Utah.
- 50:43Speaker 1: I say go for it.
- 50:44Speaker 9: Here on fourth down, illegal formation offense number sixty eight
- 50:49Speaker 9: was in the backfield five yard penalty replay.
- 50:53Speaker 2: Third down, Jared kump in the backfield that time.
- 50:57Speaker 1: So third and twenty five is gonna become third and
- 51:00Speaker 1: thirty and what was the promising drive is now gone backwards,
- 51:03Speaker 1: way way too far.
- 51:04Speaker 8: Scott, Yeah, I don't know that Jared is in the backfield.
- 51:07Speaker 8: They're any worse than anyone else is. And usually they'll
- 51:11Speaker 8: warner guy before they actually, you know, call that penalty.
- 51:14Speaker 8: That's that's just a little tiki taki for me.
- 51:17Speaker 1: Utah had it first inten at the wazoo forty one.
- 51:20Speaker 1: They're now third and thirty at they're on thirty nine
- 51:23Speaker 1: five wide. Look here on third down, Washington State's gonna
- 51:26Speaker 1: rush four now just three plenty of time for Bentley.
- 51:30Speaker 1: Now he's gonna scramble. There's a flag. He's gonna pick
- 51:33Speaker 1: up seven, and that will bring up fourth down. Ugh
- 51:41Speaker 1: holding on Utah. Washington State's gonna decline is they'll take
- 51:44Speaker 1: the football back.
- 51:48Speaker 9: I think holding offense. That penalty has declined. The result
- 51:54Speaker 9: of the play is fourth down. It was somebody on
- 51:58Speaker 9: the right side, I believe of the Utah offensive line.
- 52:00Speaker 9: Either way, it doesn't matter. A promising drive goes for
- 52:04Speaker 9: not and Utah's offense is sputtering again here after looking
- 52:07Speaker 9: so good a week ago on the road in the
- 52:09Speaker 9: snow at Colorado there for a quarter in some change,
- 52:13Speaker 9: now just sputtering and being their own worst enemy with
- 52:16Speaker 9: penalties and turnovers.
- 52:17Speaker 2: Here's Lennon's punt. It's away, nearly blocked.
- 52:20Speaker 1: Short, it's gonna hit, it's gonna check up and go
- 52:23Speaker 1: out of bounds it about the twenty yard line flag slide.
- 52:26Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have a hole here on Washington
- 52:28Speaker 1: State and we'll see how it goes. It actually went
- 52:31Speaker 1: out of bounds at about the twenty two yard line,
- 52:34Speaker 1: and we'll see the call. But I think this one's
- 52:36Speaker 1: going against the Coops as the ball was in the air.
- 52:39Speaker 1: Twelve thirty two to play here the first half, seven
- 52:41Speaker 1: nothing Washington State. Mark Duddy, our referee will give us
- 52:44Speaker 1: the call.
- 52:45Speaker 9: During the kick holding receiving team number zero have to
- 52:50Speaker 9: this excuse me, ten yard penalty.
- 52:51Speaker 2: From the end of the kick, it'll be first down, so.
- 52:55Speaker 1: A timeout on the field will come back with a
- 52:58Speaker 1: Washington State drive beginning at their own twelve yard line,
- 53:00Speaker 1: twelve thirty two to play before halftime on the final
- 53:03Speaker 1: day of college football at the University of Utah for
- 53:06Speaker 1: twenty twenty, it's Washington State seven at Utah. Nothing from

- 53:35Speaker 1: There'll be no postseason and no bowl game for Utah.
- 53:39Speaker 1: But the way they're playing right now, Scott, they might
- 53:40Speaker 1: not get bowl eligible. They're really sputtering on both offense
- 53:44Speaker 1: and defense, but especially on offense. Through about five drives now, Scott,
- 53:48Speaker 1: they've had five drives seventy seven yards for Utah and
- 53:52Speaker 1: some missthrows by Jake Bentley.
- 53:54Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it just feels like the energy and
- 53:57Speaker 8: focus is not there or what has been there the
- 54:01Speaker 8: last three weeks for this Utah football team. And it
- 54:05Speaker 8: really does feel like, whether it's a conscious or subconscious thing,
- 54:09Speaker 8: they're kind of, you know, looking to next week and
- 54:13Speaker 8: being off and having the season in.
- 54:16Speaker 1: So Jade DeLaura brings his team at first in ten
- 54:18Speaker 1: from his own twelve yard line in the shadow of
- 54:21Speaker 1: the south end zone and in the shadows. On first
- 54:24Speaker 1: down and ten, DeLaura takes the snap, delays his hand
- 54:28Speaker 1: on the Max s Borgi, grinds his feet forward and
- 54:31Speaker 1: picks up a yard maybe two in on the tackle
- 54:34Speaker 1: that time for Utah Max to Pike along with Devin Lloyd.
- 54:39Speaker 8: Yeah, great job by Devin. I mean he's gonna get
- 54:41Speaker 8: blocked by this tackle and he just says no, thank
- 54:44Speaker 8: you and just shoves him off and makes it.
- 54:46Speaker 1: Makes a great play right there.
- 54:48Speaker 2: Tennessee.
- 54:48Speaker 1: Pututa is playing really well today to the true freshman
- 54:51Speaker 1: Orgy stays at the ball game. Second down and nine now,
- 54:54Speaker 1: Utah shifting gets personnel around up front for wide receivers.
- 54:57Speaker 1: Here for Washington State, changing the play called it delta
- 55:02Speaker 1: whatever that means. Five of the line, now six of
- 55:05Speaker 1: the line for Utah the lord to pass. Here comes
- 55:08Speaker 1: the blitz up the middle in his face, scrambles away
- 55:10Speaker 1: from it in the end zone, looking down the field,
- 55:12Speaker 1: throws it away and out of bounds. One then two.
- 55:16Speaker 1: You's had a look at him. He's fleet of foot
- 55:18Speaker 1: and avoided the sack and threw it away. Nate Ritchie
- 55:21Speaker 1: was actually the closest receiver of the play for Utah,
- 55:23Speaker 1: but it was well out of mounds.
- 55:25Speaker 8: Yeah, and that that play right there. Uh oh, he
- 55:27Speaker 8: should have had him and he just he just misses
- 55:29Speaker 8: it here on the on the blitz, it's kind of
- 55:32Speaker 8: that delayed blitz again, making sure the back is blocking,
- 55:35Speaker 8: and then and then you slip in there, and that's
- 55:38Speaker 8: kind of a it's an automatic you know, I'm gonna
- 55:41Speaker 8: blitz if you block, and if you don't block, I'm
- 55:43Speaker 8: gonna cover you.
- 55:44Speaker 1: Here we go. Coop's one out of four on third down.
- 55:46Speaker 1: They've got to get to their own twenty two for
- 55:48Speaker 1: a first down. Third down and nine. Borgie stays at
- 55:51Speaker 1: the ball game. Three receivers right, one to the left
- 55:53Speaker 1: hand side. Utah with an odd front. Here they're gonna
- 55:56Speaker 1: rush five. Here comes the Borgie up the middle, first
- 55:58Speaker 1: down yard it's thirty thirty forty five and out of
- 56:02Speaker 1: bounds of midfield. Unbelievable delayed draw. And Borgie runs on
- 56:08Speaker 1: the play for thirty eight yards in a first down.
- 56:12Speaker 8: And Utah just had a three man line there and
- 56:15Speaker 8: then and they just they weren't sound. They had nobody
- 56:18Speaker 8: on this week's side. I mean, Borgie ran forty yards
- 56:21Speaker 8: before anyone even got close to touching.
- 56:23Speaker 1: It officially thirty seven in a first down right at
- 56:27Speaker 1: midfield for Washington State. Morgie now at the ballgame, five
- 56:31Speaker 1: carries seventy one yards. Yeah, I'd say they missed him
- 56:34Speaker 1: this year. DeLaura in the gun brings Macintosh to his left.
- 56:38Speaker 1: As Borgie gets a break, Utah will rush four. Here's
- 56:42Speaker 1: DeLaura surveying the field, pumps once, looks into the scramble
- 56:45Speaker 1: here to the near sideline, firing down the field, caught
- 56:48Speaker 1: it to thirty and out of bounds of the Utah
- 56:49Speaker 1: twenty nine yard line. Treville Harris three utes in the
- 56:52Speaker 1: area and nobody could get to it first. And Harris
- 56:55Speaker 1: picks up twenty one yards on the play. In another
- 56:57Speaker 1: Washington State first down.
- 56:59Speaker 8: Yeah, and what I don't underst is like a quarterback
- 57:01Speaker 8: runs to his opposite side, and why the defenders are
- 57:04Speaker 8: staying away from He's not gonna throw the ball way
- 57:07Speaker 8: far from the other side of the field. It seems
- 57:09Speaker 8: like these defenders need to slide more this way because
- 57:11Speaker 8: the offensive players are beating them to the holes on
- 57:14Speaker 8: the on the side. The quarterback scrambles too.
- 57:17Speaker 1: Four man down front for Utah on first and ten,
- 57:19Speaker 1: DeLaura in the shotgun, Dion McIntosh behind him from the
- 57:23Speaker 1: Utah twenty nine hand off. No, DeLaura is gonna throw
- 57:27Speaker 1: wide far side to the twenty five and out of
- 57:29Speaker 1: bounds at the twenty four yard line, goes to Meer Calvin.
- 57:32Speaker 1: That's a long throw for a pickup of five almost
- 57:34Speaker 1: six yards on the play.
- 57:36Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a long throw, and it's it's a throw that.
- 57:40Speaker 1: You know.
- 57:40Speaker 8: Utah they should just be on that a lot, a
- 57:42Speaker 8: lot closer than they are.
- 57:44Speaker 1: I'm not sure why Scott they're playing so far off.
- 57:46Speaker 1: This is not a team like a USC that really
- 57:49Speaker 1: takes the top off there. Everything is five and ten
- 57:52Speaker 1: and twelve yards away from the line of scrimmage. Second
- 57:56Speaker 1: down in four from the Utah twenty three running at
- 58:00Speaker 1: nine fifty three to play here the first half seven
- 58:02Speaker 1: nothing Washington State and they're on the move. McIntosh stays
- 58:06Speaker 1: at the ball game. The Laura stays in the shotgun
- 58:09Speaker 1: and whistles fly and flags fly, and we've got motion
- 58:12Speaker 1: going against Washington State.
- 58:16Speaker 2: Third penalty here on Wazoo.
- 58:18Speaker 9: Fall start offense number six, five yard penalty remains second down.
- 58:24Speaker 1: Yeah, Calvin flinched on that play. It's going to be
- 58:28Speaker 1: a run to Dion McIntosh. So I'm not quite sure
- 58:31Speaker 1: why Calvin would have been flinching on the play, but
- 58:33Speaker 1: either way, back them up five yards. It'll be second
- 58:35Speaker 1: down to nine.
- 58:36Speaker 8: When you can hear things as a wide receiver, you
- 58:39Speaker 8: normally don't because you're just going on the motion of
- 58:41Speaker 8: the ball. Yeah yeah, but without a crowd, you kind
- 58:43Speaker 8: of you can be influenced.
- 58:46Speaker 1: Back them up to the Utah twenty nine yard line.
- 58:49Speaker 1: Dion McIntosh stays in the ball game. Two receivers left,
- 58:53Speaker 1: two receivers right for Washington State. The lord to pass
- 58:56Speaker 1: surveys looks fires down the middle, caught Harris to the
- 59:00Speaker 1: Utah ten and down right there with the Washington State
- 59:03Speaker 1: first down, A gain of eighteen yards to the Utah ten.
- 59:07Speaker 1: Nate Ritchie made the tackle on the play, but not
- 59:10Speaker 1: before Trevelle Harris came up with another big catch and
- 59:13Speaker 1: it's now first in goal for the Cougars.
- 59:15Speaker 8: And Devin Lloyd there, they just got behind him in
- 59:18Speaker 8: his own coverage and there was no one on the backside.
- 59:21Speaker 8: It just feels like people like Utah is just not
- 59:24Speaker 8: in the right holes, in the right coverage lanes that
- 59:27Speaker 8: they should be. They just seemed almost discombobulated.
- 59:31Speaker 2: McIntosh to the back of the backfield.
- 59:33Speaker 1: Three receivers left one right here for Delora on first
- 59:35Speaker 1: and goal from the Utah ten hand off McIntosh five
- 59:41Speaker 1: four three two one touchdown. He took two tacklers in
- 59:46Speaker 1: the end zone with him and Washington State puts another
- 59:49Speaker 1: score on the board with eight and a half to
- 59:51Speaker 1: play here the first half thirteen nothing Cougars.
- 59:56Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's tough for ne Fei Suol. I mean,
- 59:58Speaker 8: he's the only guy in there and they get a
- 1:00:01Speaker 8: man on him, an offensive lineman, and they're just a
- 1:00:04Speaker 8: gap short there. It's hard to block that. I mean,
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: it's good scheme by Washington State.
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: Maza On to attempt the pat grows a award candidate,
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: kicks it up and kicks it through. Somebody said a
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: wake up call for Utah. They're down fourteen nothing here
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: midway through the second quarter. Washington State fourteen in Utah.
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: Nothing from Learfield IMG College. Washington State fourteen in Utah,
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: nothing eight thirty one to play here in the first half.
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: Big shout out to our friends at CR England. The
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: one initiative by Childhood Hunger will feed one child in
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: Utah for every single yard the Utch gain on offense.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: Haven't been money yards today so far, fourteen twenty nine
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: coming into the ball game. They're gonna feed children and
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: that's a great cause from our friends at CR England.
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: It's gotta find this interesting. Utah made the decision yesterday
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: not to play in a bowl game. They wanted to
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: call like quits after this game. They talked last week
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: in the postgame show about being burnt out. Fast forward
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: to today. Offense defense, there doesn't seem to be much juice.
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: Washington State's got a lot of it here today. Reminds
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: me a little bit about the bowl game and then
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: they Alibo Bowl a year ago for Utah. But it's
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: a very interesting site. Here that with one game to
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: play and playing well, they've played well the last two weeks.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: They don't look anything like the team to beat Oregon
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: State or beat Colorado, do they now?
- 1:01:29Speaker 8: And talked about the pregame, it's like, look, it's not
- 1:01:32Speaker 8: necessarily the best team, it's the team that wants to win.
- 1:01:35Speaker 8: And clearly, so far, Washington State's been the team that's
- 1:01:38Speaker 8: wanted it more. And you have to wonder how much
- 1:01:42Speaker 8: that plays into your mindset when you're verbalizing that outside.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: You know, you maybe think it, you know, but you
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: kind of keep your thoughts to yourself. But when this.
- 1:01:51Speaker 8: Team's talking like this and making these actions, you know,
- 1:01:54Speaker 8: clearly this season, in this mindset has impacted how Utah's
- 1:01:58Speaker 8: playing to them.
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: Andrew Boyle to kick it off here for Washington State,
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: his second kickoff today, written Covey stands in the sun
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: of the north end zone waiting for the Boyle kick.
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: Fourteen to nothing, Washington State eight thirty one to play
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: here in the first half.
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: A lot of football to be played, but Utah's gotta
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: get going here.
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: Coby's gonna take it five yards deep on the back pedal,
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: and Utah will take it first intended to twenty five
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: yard line. Utah's had two promising drives here today's Scott
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: They were moving it well on their second drive of
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: the game, and then Ty Jordan fumbled the football in
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: Wazoo territory. The last drive they had it first intended
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: to Washington State forty one. Then they went backwards twenty
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: five yards. And so I wonder you know what it's
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: gonna take to keep these drives flowing it.
- 1:02:47Speaker 8: Teams are dialed in. They finished.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: When they're not focused in the game, they make those
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: silly mistakes and penalties. Bentley under center, tight Jordan behind him, Botheringham,
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: the motion man across the formation, play action, Jake Stottle
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: plenty of time down the field. He's got a man open.
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: Keithy with the catch at midfield and out of bounds
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: in the Washington State forty nine yard line. What a throw.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Great catching traffic by Keithy at a game of twenty
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: six yards. Yeah.
- 1:03:14Speaker 8: Great anticipation there by Jake Bentley because he throws him
- 1:03:17Speaker 8: in the hole and he has confidence that he's gonna
- 1:03:19Speaker 8: be I mean, this play is so open all the time,
- 1:03:23Speaker 8: and teams, even though they know he's going to that
- 1:03:25Speaker 8: deep post or that corner on the opposite side, but
- 1:03:28Speaker 8: still can't beat a great throw in a great.
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: Round burst in jam Washington State Territory for the third
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: time today for Utah. Bentley changing the play at the
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, tied Jordan behind him, two tights and
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: two wives. Handoff, George, he's got the forty five ty losers.
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: It's putting. Stumbles forward and picks up almost ten yards,
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: but a flag of the play is going to bring
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: this one back.
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: I think we've got a hold on the left side
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: by Utah.
- 1:03:53Speaker 8: You know, there are just some officiating crews that like
- 1:03:55Speaker 8: the Colts.
- 1:03:56Speaker 9: Offense number eighty nine, ten yard penalty first down.
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: The hold was on Cole Fotheringham and it was about
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: four yards down the field. So Utah will back it
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: up ten yards from the spot. They'll be back on
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: their side of midfield. It'll be first down and we'll
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: call it about seventeen. Yeah, and it's probably a good
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: thing that.
- 1:04:20Speaker 8: Ty Jordan stumbled there, because he might have scored a
- 1:04:23Speaker 8: touchdown if he kip his feet and then they'd have
- 1:04:26Speaker 8: to bring back a touchdown. And it had nothing to
- 1:04:28Speaker 8: do with the hole. The hole did not cause anything
- 1:04:31Speaker 8: any problem with the play away from the call.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: All right, first down in twenty they back it up
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: to the forty one yard line. They'll say the hole
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: was right at the line of scrimmage. Hand off Ty
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: Jordan on the edge again, forty five inside fifty into
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: Wazoo territory and out of bounds of the Washington States
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: forty five yard line. That's a nice pick up fourteen
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: yards on first down, gets back a chunk of that
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: penalty yardage.
- 1:04:54Speaker 8: Well, this bring up second down and six. Yeah, this
- 1:04:56Speaker 8: is a good This shows you who Ty Jordan is.
- 1:04:58Speaker 8: This is an outside play. You're gonna have fat to
- 1:05:00Speaker 8: get out there like that and to get past those
- 1:05:02Speaker 8: defenders and then to play before it. He's more upside,
- 1:05:05Speaker 8: you know, he's in the hole, and so he shows
- 1:05:08Speaker 8: you his versatility. He can run inside and outside with
- 1:05:10Speaker 8: with great speed and power.
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: Seven minutes exactly to play here the first half Utah
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: down fourteen nothing, Bentley changing the play again, four wide.
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: Look here on second down and six over the middle,
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: caught and first down yardage. I think no, they're gonna
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: say Washington State took the football away.
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: Is it WASU football?
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: It is Sampson Nakuah had it ripped out of his
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: hands at the forty one and taking back away. Another
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: turnover on Utah, and now a flag flies on a
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: celebration against Washington State. A great throw, the catch was
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: there and then Sampson just hit it ripped out of
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: his arms.
- 1:05:48Speaker 8: Yeah, he gets stopped here and then and then he's
- 1:05:51Speaker 8: trying to fight to go down.
- 1:05:52Speaker 9: Through the play on sportsmanlike conduct defense number zero, fifteen
- 1:05:58Speaker 9: yard penalty.
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: It'll be washed in the state's ball.
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: First down in.
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: Ten Jalen Watson made the tackle, he made the rip,
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: and then he committed the penalty. But I think Nick
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: Rolovich will take it. They'll back it up all the
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: way back to the thirty yard line. My second Utah
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: turnover gives it back again to Washington State.
- 1:06:19Speaker 8: You know, Sampson Nakoua hasn't been playing very much this year.
- 1:06:22Speaker 8: I'm not I'm trying to defend because he's got to
- 1:06:25Speaker 8: secure that football above anything else. And you can hold
- 1:06:28Speaker 8: on to the ball when a guy's trying to strip
- 1:06:31Speaker 8: it away from you. But when you haven't played and
- 1:06:32Speaker 8: you're not used to that, sometimes it gets easy to
- 1:06:36Speaker 8: kind of give up the football.
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: In that situation. Now the defense got to come up
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: with a stop of turnover something here. Six forty six
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: to play before halftime. Washington State football in their own
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: thirty yard line, first down in ten, DeLaura takes the
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: snaff and keeps it on the left hand side Jayden
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: DeLaura thirty five and out to the thirty seven thirty
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: eight yard line. But a black lies in from behind,
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: and they may get the Kougs for a whole this
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: time after an eight yard game by DeLaura.
- 1:07:08Speaker 9: Holding offense number sixty three, ten yard penalty replay first down.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: Their outstanding left tackle Liam Ryan got called for that hold,
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: so Utah actually catches a break on that play. It'll
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: back it up now to the twenty yard line. Make
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: it first down at twenty five.
- 1:07:25Speaker 8: And he clearly held there on the play, and it
- 1:07:28Speaker 8: was a good call. It's good to see these officials
- 1:07:30Speaker 8: are not impartial. They're calling holding equally on both sides
- 1:07:35Speaker 8: of the ball.
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: That means they are impartial.
- 1:07:37Speaker 8: Well whatever it means, you know what I was saying.
- 1:07:41Speaker 8: At least they're impartial.
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: So first down at twenty, all the way back in
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: the Wazoo twenty yard line. De Laura spreads the field
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: with four wide receivers and he'll throw on first down
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: flankers screen. Reynard Bell catches and he's dropped immediately at
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Nate Ritchie up to make that
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: tackle for Utah and outstanding read by Richie.
- 1:08:03Speaker 8: Yeah, so much better. You know, I'm sure Utah has
- 1:08:05Speaker 8: been drilling this in practice. Like this bubble screen. You
- 1:08:09Speaker 8: gotta hit it right now, Nate. Richie does a great job.
- 1:08:12Speaker 8: The receivers force the screen to go back to the
- 1:08:15Speaker 8: inside like they're supposed to textbook on that player right there.
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: So a one yard game making a second down in
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: nineteen Washington State can pick up chunk yardage with the
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: best of them. Here Borgie in the ballgame. Now, he's
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: having a big day so far. Here for the Cougars,
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: Utah showing some pressure up front. Now Laura will pass, twisting, stunting, blitzing.
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: Here they come after DeLaura. He scrambles for the right
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: hand side, looking down the field, tripped up, throws down
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: the field and incomplete. He avoided the zack knot once
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: but twice. The nimble, fleet footed freshman from Honolulu brings
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: up third down to nineteen I'll.
- 1:08:50Speaker 8: Tell you he's been do Laura's been really impressive again.
- 1:08:54Speaker 8: It's that kind of delayed blitz by Devin Lloyd, and
- 1:08:58Speaker 8: he just waits and waits. Devon's fast and clearly had
- 1:09:03Speaker 8: had the.
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: Lane on him, but the Laura finds a way to
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: escape him enough because it looked like he was gonna
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: get sacked there by Devin Lloyd. Eleven of fifteen, one
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen yards in the first half year by
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: De Laura. Third down in nineteen Washington State, two out
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: of five on third down, Utah going to rush just
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: for here and play coverage behind it.
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: De Laura steps up away for the pressure. He'll take
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: off and run.
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: He's got the thirty he's got the thirty five and
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: down at the thirty six yard line, maybe thirty seven,
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: three yards shy of first down yardage, a big gain
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: on the scramble by Laura. Bring up fourth down and three.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: Is Rolovich gonna keep his offense out there?
- 1:09:44Speaker 9: No?
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: Peel sent the punt team out with a fourteen nothing lead.
- 1:09:47Speaker 8: Almost felt like that was designed let him in, like
- 1:09:50Speaker 8: they're just letting everybody go down midfield and let him
- 1:09:53Speaker 8: go go go and then and then release the lineman
- 1:09:56Speaker 8: and try to try to block and just see if
- 1:09:58Speaker 8: you can't pick it up.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: Isovich on to punt Britain. Covey will look up into
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: the sun for this one. Gotta kick it away from him.
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: It's a spiraling punt. Britain comes over, gonna let it
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: hit and roll inside the ten and out of bounds
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: at the five. I don't know that Briton never saw it,
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: but that was one where you got to come up
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: and try and fair catch it. Ninety five yard field
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: for Utah when we get back four point thirty five
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: to play before halftime. Here at riisecl Stadium, Washington State
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: in control, leading at fourteen.
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: To nothing from Learfield IMG College.
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: Today's Utah football broadcast be brought to you by our
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: friends in Budweiser and bud Light, the official sponsor of
- 1:10:38Speaker 1: Utah Athletics. Saturdays are better with a Crisp bud Light
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: in your tailgate. Keep it crisp. Utah fans, please drink responsibly.
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: Well's kind of said in the pregame show. I wanted
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: a lot of big explosive plays. We haven't seen a
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: lot of big explosive plays. Certainly not a lot of
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: big explosive finishes here today had a few chunk plays
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: for Utah, but we want that big explosive finish that
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: just hasn't been there yet.
- 1:11:02Speaker 8: Yeah, And like when when the teams you kind of
- 1:11:05Speaker 8: feel like Utah hasn't quite focused, and when you're not
- 1:11:09Speaker 8: completely focused in the game, you'll see those mistakes, You'll
- 1:11:12Speaker 8: see the stumbles because there have been some potential for
- 1:11:15Speaker 8: some big plays. An inaccurate throw, a stumble, a hold,
- 1:11:22Speaker 8: a chop block, and it just kills all the momentum
- 1:11:24Speaker 8: of a drug.
- 1:11:25Speaker 2: Well, and turnovers do too.
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: Utah has had two of those on the Washington State
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: side of midfield, tied Jordan's fumble and Sampson Nakuas fumble. Thankfully,
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: the Nikula fumble wasn't cashed in there for any points,
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: but again it was another missed opportunity on the Washington
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: State side of midfield. Now, Utah's got it driving into
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: the sun from north to south, a ninety five yard
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: field in front of them, and four thirty five here
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: are the first half game clock. When Utah could really
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: use here is either a really big play down the
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: field or a nice sustained drive to kind of kill
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: the end of this half and get some points before halftime,
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: and then gets the ball coming out of the second
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: half exactly.
- 1:12:04Speaker 8: Really get a nice momentum change here for Utah.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: Well Nikua who fumbled not in the ball game right now,
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: two tight ends, two wide receivers, Ty Jordan the tailback.
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: He's four yards deep in the end zone. Is Bentley,
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: goes under center, Bentley changing the play now, Jake turns
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: and gives it to ty Jordan. Tye picking his way forward,
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: gets almost four yards out of the line of nine
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: yard lock so seven carries forty eight yards. He's having
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: a good first half and he's just missed a couple
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: of big plays too.
- 1:12:36Speaker 8: Yeah, nice surge there on the on the line, just
- 1:12:39Speaker 8: just moving the pile and he's and ty Jordan's just
- 1:12:42Speaker 8: following it. Getting a nice game. But man, that play
- 1:12:44Speaker 8: action is just there. Those linebackers are so aggressive filling
- 1:12:49Speaker 8: on those running plays. And show that tight end, that
- 1:12:51Speaker 8: two tight formation and hit that that pass to Brian
- 1:12:54Speaker 8: Thompson again.
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: Too tight, two wide again for Utah. On second and six.
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: Jordan stays at the game six near the line of scrimmage,
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: throw wide incomplete way behind Brian to I mean, not
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: even close to Brian Thompson that time Brian was cutting
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: in that ball was outside.
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: Is that a miscommunication or just a bad throw?
- 1:13:13Speaker 8: This is a bad throw. I mean it's a late throw.
- 1:13:16Speaker 8: And this is hard. This is hard when you have
- 1:13:18Speaker 8: a single high safety and everybody runs a slant. It's
- 1:13:21Speaker 8: just it's it's scary when you don't have a guy
- 1:13:24Speaker 8: controlling things going out to the flat there and it's
- 1:13:27Speaker 8: a safe throw. He's just late with the throw.
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: Utah has not converted a third down today. They're zero
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: for three on third down. Four wide receiver. Look, you're
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: on third down. Keithy comes in motion. Now it's salomoninis
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: Bentley to pass, twisting and stunning up front. They're gonna
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: throw it long. He's got a man wide open. That's Covey.
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: Thirty five, forty forty five, fifty forty five, forty There
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: he goes. It's six for britt Covey. You know you
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: tight d one yards for a Utah touchdown, Britain cu.
- 1:14:00Speaker 8: You talk about a double move that kind of that
- 1:14:02Speaker 8: was a pick play. So Covey's on the inside and
- 1:14:05Speaker 8: they're playing tight man coverage. What they've done, But this
- 1:14:07Speaker 8: is why having Britain Covey back in your offense man
- 1:14:11Speaker 8: change his third down for you. A great call, great
- 1:14:14Speaker 8: throw by the way by Jake Bentley, and then it's
- 1:14:17Speaker 8: nice to see Covey explode past people running down the field.
- 1:14:20Speaker 8: I mean they weren't even close to catching him. Great design,
- 1:14:23Speaker 8: great call, and a willingness to do it when you're
- 1:14:25Speaker 8: way backed up there really shifts all momentum here for Utah.
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: There is that big explosive play and finish we've been
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: waiting on a Pepsi touchdown Bentley ninety one yards to
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: britt Covey. The PA team by Jaydon Redding is up
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: and good and with three point thirty seven to play
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: here in the first half, Utah is on the board
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: and they do it in fine fashion on a long
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: touchdown from Bentley to Covey. And that was Covey just
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: an out and up and he ran right by the
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: corner and one season the open field, you're not gonna
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: catch you.
- 1:15:00Speaker 8: Nice job too by Bentley. He knows he has it
- 1:15:02Speaker 8: by alignment, he knows Covey's going to be open on
- 1:15:05Speaker 8: this plane. He keeps the safety in the middle of
- 1:15:06Speaker 8: the field, doesn't tip his hat and then makes a
- 1:15:09Speaker 8: I mean it's a good throw. I'm not being nitpicky here,
- 1:15:12Speaker 8: but Covey has to wait a little bit for it.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: Yeah, but as you said, he kept the safety in
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: the middle of the field and then fired outside to
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: a wide open Britain Covey. What kind of scoring drive's got?
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: Three plays, ninety five yards in fifty eight seconds on
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: the game clock. Hey, here's something. Utah's got all three
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: of their time that's gonna stop here. Maybe you get
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: it back again before halftime.
- 1:15:33Speaker 8: Yeah, it's something to consider, you know, depending on where
- 1:15:36Speaker 8: you Washington starts his drive and kind of how things go.
- 1:15:39Speaker 8: But you act the ball back again and score again
- 1:15:41Speaker 8: before half.
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: Jordan Noyce has a teed up in his own thirty
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: five yard line. Trevelle Harris standing in the shadows of
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: the south end zone right now as the Ken Gar
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: end zone project continues to be underway. Here's the kick
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: high and end over end through the back of the
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: end zone. Good touchback there by Jordan noys He's now
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: got nine touchbacks on the season, and with three thirty
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: seven to play here the first half, Washington State will
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: get it back again. Their lead cutting half at fourteen
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: to seven, and maybe, just maybe Utah's defense has figured
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: a little something out here.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: That's two drives in a row. Now, Washington State's not scoring.
- 1:16:24Speaker 8: Yeah, and they're much better in their gap control and
- 1:16:27Speaker 8: kind of understanding their alignments and assignments here from early
- 1:16:32Speaker 8: on in the game.
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: Two receivers left, two receivers right.
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: Dean McIntosh the tail back of the ball game, this
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: time for Washington State. Utah is shifting around right now.
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: The Laura looks at the defense. There's a big gap.
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: If they want to run it, they'll pass it instead.
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: The Laura looks fires long. He's got a man wide open.
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: Caught it to thirty five, thirty inside and down at
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: the Utah twenty four yard line. J T. Brodton got
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: burned by Jamir Calvin, and that's a big play for
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: the Washington State Cougars all the way to the Utah
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: twenty six yard line. Yeah.
- 1:17:04Speaker 8: I didn't see the beginning of that play, but I
- 1:17:07Speaker 8: don't know if it was a miscoverage or if you
- 1:17:09Speaker 8: got a bit up on a double move there, because
- 1:17:13Speaker 8: that was just too wide open for really what looked
- 1:17:16Speaker 8: like a zone.
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: Coverage forty nine yards pitch and catch and the Washington
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: State Cougars are set up in business first in ten
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: of the Utah twenty six clock, running three thirteen to
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: play before halftime. Delora the laid handoff Macintosh right side, stumbles,
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: gets through the hole and ends up picking up for
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: almost five yards on the play. Devin Kapussi made the
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: tackle for Utah, and now Washington State can kind of
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: bleed that clock just a little bit here as we
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: go inside of three minutes to play. It'll be second
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: down in five of the Utah twenty two.
- 1:17:53Speaker 8: Yeah, and this isn't a time when Utah needs to
- 1:17:55Speaker 8: be more aggressive at the line of scrimmage with these
- 1:17:57Speaker 8: wide receivers.
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: Utah with six near the line of scrimmage now to say,
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: back off McIntosh in the ball game, four wide receivers
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: Utah shifting around up left the lord to pass fires
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: caught over the middle and it dropped at the nine
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: yard line. Vonte Davis hit Jamiir Calvin and Vonte a
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: little slow to react after that play. That's a pitch
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: and catch on the play and a first down at
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: a first and gold coming up in the eight yard line.
- 1:18:28Speaker 8: As they go for ten yards yeah, and Vonte hurt
- 1:18:32Speaker 8: his arm on that play. He's kneeling down there on
- 1:18:34Speaker 8: the outside.
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: Again. Another wide receiver running free in that Utah secondary.
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: If Vante goes at Zemaiah Vaughn, the true freshman who
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: had the interception in the game against Washington at the
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: end of the half, will probably be the safety that
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: comes into the ball game First and gold Washington State
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: at the Utah eight yard line with two to eleven
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: to play. Here, I thought Utah could get the ball
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: back agains Scott, but I didn't think Washington State would
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: score again and then give you tell the ball back
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: before half. Well, it's.
- 1:19:10Speaker 8: You know, I don't know exactly what's going on here,
- 1:19:12Speaker 8: but it feels like Utah is in a zone coverage
- 1:19:16Speaker 8: when and these big holes are happening behind the linebackers.
- 1:19:20Speaker 8: I don't know if guys are are are just too
- 1:19:23Speaker 8: anxiously going up to the flat receiver and leaving these
- 1:19:27Speaker 8: holes because it's happened now behind Sewell, it's happened behind
- 1:19:30Speaker 8: Loyd that they get these wide receivers running, you know,
- 1:19:34Speaker 8: really kind of wide open.
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: Two left and two right of the wide receivers on
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: first and goal from the eight yard line de Laura
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: and the gun Macintosh next to it. Utah given lots
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: of room to the receivers on the outside. The Laura
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: backpedals to throw, rolls out to his right, fires toward
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: the goal line, caught touchdown. Jamir Calvin caught it, reached
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: for the pylon and got into the end zone. You
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: meet JT. Broughton and now the flags fly again. It's
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: going to be another celebration penalty here against Washington State.
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: That's their second today.
- 1:20:12Speaker 9: The ruling on the field is a touchdown after the
- 1:20:15Speaker 9: play on sportsmanlike conduct offense number six. It's a fifteen
- 1:20:20Speaker 9: yard penalty that'll carry over to the kickoff number six
- 1:20:24Speaker 9: first on sportsmanlike conduct foul of the game.
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: Calvin's first touchdown of the year puts Washington State up
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: twenty to seven with a minute fifty one to play.
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: The pat coming here from Blake Maza, and that last
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: play almost felt like it was designed. Where is now
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: number sixteen for Washington State? That designed rollout. It looks
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: like you look to the left and then rolls to
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: the right and they do this kind of delay out late.
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: It was good design whatever it was. And the third
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: touchdown of the half here for the Cougar's high snap
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: kick is up, kick is good and Washington State's lead
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: fourteen again here with a minute fifty one to play
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: before halftime. This Utah defense has given up more Big
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: Place today against Washington State and Chunk Place today than
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: they did against USC or Washington or anybody like that.
- 1:21:11Speaker 8: Yeah, they're just really undisciplined in their drops and their
- 1:21:14Speaker 8: coverage and responsibilities and kind of tacked it up against
- 1:21:18Speaker 8: the run, but against the pass, there's just too many holes,
- 1:21:21Speaker 8: too many guys unaccounted for and not having an awareness.
- 1:21:24Speaker 8: This penalty is going to be interesting because it's going
- 1:21:28Speaker 8: to give you know, Covey really an opportunity to run
- 1:21:32Speaker 8: this back and you know, maybe he can make something
- 1:21:34Speaker 8: happen here, get a big return.
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: And even get another score.
- 1:21:36Speaker 8: I mean it's like, Okay, they scored, but there's plenty
- 1:21:38Speaker 8: of time almost two minutes, three timeouts to get another
- 1:21:42Speaker 8: score here before halv to get the ball back.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: Scott Jay de Laura is fifteen of twenty one hundred
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: and eighty eight yards in a touchdown. They've run for
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: one hundred yards and passed for one hundred and eighty
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: eight yards. Utah's give it up two hundred and eighty
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: eight yards here of offense in the first half. That's
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: very unlike a Morgan's scaley defense.
- 1:21:57Speaker 8: Well, and especially against a true freshman quarterback. This Utah
- 1:22:01Speaker 8: defense has been known to give fits to these young
- 1:22:03Speaker 8: guys that Delora has been very confident, poised and has
- 1:22:06Speaker 8: done a tremendous job of extending plays and making big
- 1:22:10Speaker 8: plays happen.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: So Charlie Vincent, the East High product back with Brittain
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: Covey written at the ten, Vincent at the fifteen. It's
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: gonna be a kickoff of the twenty yard line here
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: after the unsportsmen like penalty on Washington State celebrating that touchdown.
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: Frigisovich will kick it. You'll kick it high and end
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: o Braather. It's very returnable by Covey. He'll take it
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: for the fifteen up to the twenty, britt to the
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: twenty five. He's got the outside thirty thirty five, he's
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: got the forty forty five, back inside to the fifty
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: and flags fly. This is what's gonna come back. He
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: took it all the way to the Washington State forty
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: eight yard line and instead of starting at Cougar territory.
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: Utah is gonna be backed up closer to their thirty
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: one yard line here, Scott, what.
- 1:22:59Speaker 8: And that flag was from about four miles away? It
- 1:23:02Speaker 8: almost looked like a kicking out. I mean that, and
- 1:23:04Speaker 8: that flag carried probably twenty yards in.
- 1:23:05Speaker 9: Return illegal block in the back return team number fifty four,
- 1:23:10Speaker 9: ten yard penalty from the spot of the foul.
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: It'll be Utah's ball first and ten Hayden Fury the
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: perpetrator of the hold. And the funny thing is he
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: held on the inside. That's a block in the back,
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: actually is what it was. That wasn't a hold, that
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: was a block of the back, and clearly he was.
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: It was past the play, I mean he didn't need
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: to do it. No. So now a seventy yard field,
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: a minute forty two, all three timeouts remaining here for Utah.
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: McKay bernard the back of the ball game right now
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: for the utes, they triple a cluster of wide receivers
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: to the right hand side, single receiver to the right
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: left hand side. Bentley to throw lots of time. Nothing there,
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: He's gonna tucket and go, and he picks up two
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: yards of the thirty two it not of bounds. He
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: goes with a minute third to play.
- 1:24:00Speaker 8: Boy, I tell you it's it's He should have thrown
- 1:24:03Speaker 8: the ball to Devin Lloyd right there. He's white. I'm sorry.
- 1:24:06Speaker 8: Brian Thompson wide open there. He just didn't see it.
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: In fairness, Devin Lloyd was also open, but he was
- 1:24:13Speaker 2: on the sideline.
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: Would have been an incompletion. Bernard stays in the game.
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: Second down at eighty he.
- 1:24:20Speaker 8: Throned it to Lloyd and it actually would have gone
- 1:24:22Speaker 8: to Thompson.
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: Here's the throw outside and intercepted.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: He threw it right to the defender. And this might
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: be a pick six up the sideline to the five
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: and down to the Utah too. A terrible pass by
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: Jake Bentley picked off by Jahad Woods and the Cougars
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: have it first to goal with the Utah two yard
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: line with a minute twenty five seconds to play before halftime.
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: What in the world was that?
- 1:24:45Speaker 8: Well, the linebacker just does a nice job of kind
- 1:24:48Speaker 8: of floating to the outside. Thompson's running out and Bentley
- 1:24:51Speaker 8: just doesn't doesn't see him. It's a little short on
- 1:24:53Speaker 8: the out route. You gotta you gotta fill that underneath coverage.
- 1:24:57Speaker 8: There and and and Bentley just didn't see it, and
- 1:24:59Speaker 8: it was it's gonna be a short throw anyways. You
- 1:25:03Speaker 8: gotta put a little air on that guy, you know,
- 1:25:05Speaker 8: he puts a little air and gets it over him.
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: He might have it, but it just he threw it
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: right to him. I mean he was right there in
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: a white jersey. First in goal. Washington State can threaten
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: to blow this one open right now from the Utah
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: two yard line hand off, Laura keeps it on the
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: edge and walks into the end zone. Touchdown. Jaden de
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: Laura with a beautiful fake kept it on the right
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: edge and walked into the end zone. And Washington State
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: leads by twenty now with a minute twenty one to
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: play here before halftime.
- 1:25:35Speaker 8: And I wouldn't be surprised if Drew List doesn't start
- 1:25:39Speaker 8: coming in this game here.
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:25:41Speaker 8: He is throwing the ball on the sideline.
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: He's warming up with Cooper Justice, is what he's doing.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: He doesn't have his helmet anywhere near him, still wearing
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: the headset. But he's wearing that headset. Andy Lovewig may
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: have told him upstairs to warm up. Yeah, I mean
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: it's got that. That's just a throw you can't make
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: if you're Bentley. Well, you've got to see that these
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: are things.
- 1:26:03Speaker 8: That a guy who's played this many games you just
- 1:26:06Speaker 8: shouldn't see these musket stakes.
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: Again and again and again.
- 1:26:10Speaker 8: And the thing that started the season with turnovers with
- 1:26:13Speaker 8: the running back and the quarterback are the things you're
- 1:26:15Speaker 8: ending this season with and just not a good look
- 1:26:19Speaker 8: for the youths.
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: Three first half turnovers, two were cashed in for touchdowns
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: by Washington State, the Bentley interception being the latest and
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: probably the worst of the three turnovers because he threw
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: it right to him in the flat. It was just
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: a linebacker dropping into coverage is all it was. And
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: as you mentioned, I'm not so sure that balls completed
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: to Thompson because there was a corner out there right
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: with Brian Thompson.
- 1:26:44Speaker 8: Yeah, and he was just you know, he's trying to
- 1:26:47Speaker 8: just didn't get his eyes over to his target and
- 1:26:49Speaker 8: he just threw it a little bit blind and just
- 1:26:51Speaker 8: didn't see the linebackers.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: I mean, at twenty one to play twenty eight to
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: seven Washington State. You know, it's one of those things, Scott,
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: where if it was a young quarterback who hadn't played
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: a lot. You could probably understand it a little bit.
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: It's hard to understand looking so good one week and
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: then just so below average the next. Here's a long
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: end over end kick and it's gonna be back for
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: a touchback. Utah will have it at their own twenty
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: five yard line. Three time outs that have been in
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: twenty one before halftime, and here comes Drew Lisk and
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: it will be Drew Lisk here and what could be
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: his final game is a Uton for Drew List. You'll
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: come onto the field here, Jake Bentley will go to
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: the bench.
- 1:27:38Speaker 8: And perhaps there have been some questions answered about next
- 1:27:40Speaker 8: season at certain positions. I mean really, I mean hate
- 1:27:43Speaker 8: to say it, but you know you can't keep seeing
- 1:27:45Speaker 8: these same things from a senior quarterback.
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: To the former Jordan high beat digger. Drew List first
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: intended from his own twenty five He's gonna throw the
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: flanker screen it's out and taught and then drop immediately
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: the ball comes out. Britain Covey got blown up behind
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and a loss of two on
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: the play. Utah takes a time out with a minute
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: fifteen to play. That was well read by Jalen Watson,
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: who's had himself a big first half.
- 1:28:16Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's you know, that's really on Brian Thompson
- 1:28:19Speaker 8: because he's got to block that outside guy and he
- 1:28:21Speaker 8: just misses him. Otherwise, Covey's got some room to make
- 1:28:25Speaker 8: a play.
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: Second. Down to twelve minute, fifteen to play Utah now
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: the clock running. They must not have taken a time out.
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: They called that ball in complete is what they did.
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: Here's List growing outside. It's caught thirty five and down
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: to the thirty seven yard line goes Britton Covey, a
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: gain of fourteen on the play clock will stop while
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: they set it, then they'll wind it again. One minute now,
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: fifty nine seconds to play. Utah has got all their
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: timeouts and a nice throw by Drew List. And what
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: do we have? Time out taken by Washington State with
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: three seconds to play, and that'll help out Utah hit.
- 1:29:02Speaker 8: Maybe Washington State wants the ball back again, Thanks Utah.
- 1:29:05Speaker 8: Maybe he'll score something, you.
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: Know, Drew List two out of two for eleven yards.
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: I'm not sure why the clock stopped before Scott. Utah
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: is still showing three timeouts. He stayed in bounds. They
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: called it a complete pass.
- 1:29:22Speaker 8: Well clock operators are human too.
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: Britton coming now. Three catches one hundred two yards and
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: a touchdown. Keithy's got four grafts fifty yards. Bryan Thompson
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: won for twelve fifty three seconds. Utah but a disastrous
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: first half with three turnovers, down twenty eight to seven.
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: They will get the ball to begin the second half.
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: So if they can even get a field goal here,
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: just something to feel good about things going into that
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: locker room. There is a lot of time to play,
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: but the offense has got to hold onto the ball.
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: Scott and the defense got to figure out a way
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: to get Washington State off the field. Well, when you
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: have a.
- 1:29:57Speaker 8: Young team and you get to the end of the
- 1:30:00Speaker 8: season and you can see the season's in two, there's
- 1:30:03Speaker 8: not that maturity. There's not that that leader that says,
- 1:30:05Speaker 8: guys is unacceptable. We got to get it together. I
- 1:30:08Speaker 8: don't care if it's our last game. This isn't how
- 1:30:09Speaker 8: we play Utah football.
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: Mackai Bernard Kale, back of the ball, game list to pass,
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: here comes pressure, Drew steps throws ball knocked down at
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage incomplete. I think what's the referee saying?
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: I thought that ball was thrown, deflected and incomplete.
- 1:30:27Speaker 9: The ruling on the field is the ball was tipped.
- 1:30:29Speaker 9: It was an incomplete pass, second.
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: Down, second down in ten with fifty seconds to play.
- 1:30:36Speaker 8: Well that was the official or the referee. Yeah, it
- 1:30:39Speaker 8: just knocked down.
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: Everybody was scoring after it like it was a fumble.
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: Second down in ten. Utah from their own thirty six
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: fifty seconds to play before halftime, trailing twenty eight to seven.
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: Jehad Woods showing pressure as a linebacker right up the middle,
- 1:30:57Speaker 1: four wide. Look here for Utah. Here comes w Heer,
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: come the Kooks. They throw it over the middle complete
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: to Solomon Enis. He's got running room to the forty
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: five and down right there after a gain of nine yards,
- 1:31:08Speaker 1: and Utah will take a time out with forty one
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: seconds and third down and one coming up. First catch
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: of the day for Solo Enis, who had a good
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: week last week against Colorado.
- 1:31:18Speaker 8: But see this is a play where it's the same
- 1:31:21Speaker 8: play that was thrown to Covey earlier in the game,
- 1:31:23Speaker 8: and it was way behind him. It was inaccurate, and
- 1:31:26Speaker 8: Drew Lisk right here puts the ball right on the money.
- 1:31:28Speaker 8: And then and then Solomon can make a play. You know,
- 1:31:31Speaker 8: he's not hanging him out to dry there. He's giving
- 1:31:33Speaker 8: his receiver a chance to make plays. And these guys
- 1:31:35Speaker 8: can do it. I mean, Solomon ENA's right there. That's
- 1:31:37Speaker 8: that's a big time play. Great great effort and great
- 1:31:41Speaker 8: yards after the catch. But it's all about the ball location.
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: So third down and one here, Utah uses it first
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: of its three timeouts.
- 1:31:51Speaker 2: They need points.
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: They are down twenty eight to seven, final game of
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: the regular season. Utah was hoping to end on a
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: high note today and make it three in a row.
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: But they've got a lot of work before that's gonna happen.
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: Bernard behind lesk who's under center. I'll be surprised if
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: they run the football here Lisk two tight, two wide
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: changes the play hands, will the fly sweep to bring
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: out the Beethe Keithy the forty five and down of
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: the forty one of Washington State. They're going to stop
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: the clock for a minute, set the football with thirty
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: seven seconds to play, Utah shifting personnel.
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: Now the clock rolls and what do they do? Do
- 1:32:39Speaker 2: they take a time out?
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: Now?
- 1:32:46Speaker 8: What happens is Utah sub players.
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: First and ten of the Washington State forty list to
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: pass in wrap behind Thompson and incomplete again. That's the
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: third time today the ball has been thrown behind Brian Thompson.
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: Now what could have been big plays. Brian runs a
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: great route at the balls behind him again incomplete.
- 1:33:03Speaker 8: Well, and it's at least a better throw and a
- 1:33:05Speaker 8: little bit earlier than the one before. What happened here though,
- 1:33:09Speaker 8: why they didn't stop it as Utah substituted. So they
- 1:33:12Speaker 8: got to allow Washington State the opportunity to substitute. And
- 1:33:16Speaker 8: if Washington State was smart, they would have got the
- 1:33:19Speaker 8: guys on the field late.
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: Second down in ten now listing the shotgun drew back pedals,
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: pressure coming, stepping, firing, growing, caught, dropped, tried to get
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: that ball into Enis and a little wobble to it
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: as it went down the field would have been a
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: big pickup instead. Third down coming up with twenty two
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: seconds to play before halftime, and.
- 1:33:37Speaker 8: I like to call here, I mean it's a catchuple pass.
- 1:33:41Speaker 8: Almost got to come out and reach out and get
- 1:33:43Speaker 8: that right there.
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: Coverage on the play was by Jalen watching it again.
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: Having a big first half here for the Cougars. Twenty
- 1:33:52Speaker 1: two seconds in two time outs. Everything wide open. Middle
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: of the field's open here to Utah if they want to,
- 1:34:02Speaker 1: here's list to pass lots of time again, pocket holding up,
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: dumps it over the middle, It's caught for a short
- 1:34:08Speaker 1: gain to Mackai Bernard to the thirty nine, and Utah's
- 1:34:12Speaker 1: gonna take a time out with sixteen seconds to play.
- 1:34:15Speaker 1: That was only a very short gain of two yards.
- 1:34:19Speaker 8: Yeah, and none of that play had anybody down the
- 1:34:22Speaker 8: field with even a chance to get the first down.
- 1:34:25Speaker 8: I don't know if Drew was told or thought, maybe
- 1:34:27Speaker 8: we you know, we this is too down territory for us,
- 1:34:31Speaker 8: but you know, not an overly well designed play there before.
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: You can tell. Yeah, everything was within about five yards
- 1:34:37Speaker 1: of the un scrimmage and Washington State was playing for that,
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: so they were gonna just let it get caught in
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: front of the hip everyzackle exactly yep. So fourth down
- 1:34:47Speaker 1: and eight here in Utah is gonna keep the offense
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: on the field.
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: They're gonna go for it. Jade Reddick's got a good leg,
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: but he doesn't have that kind of leg.
- 1:34:54Speaker 1: They attempted a field goal to be about a fifty
- 1:34:56Speaker 1: six to fifty seven yard attempt, so they're gonna try
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: and pick up the nine yards eight yards, got to
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: get to the thirty one for a first down, which
- 1:35:05Speaker 1: means Sky, you've got to send guys down the field.
- 1:35:07Speaker 8: You gotta go down the field a little bit. And
- 1:35:09Speaker 8: the pass protection has been actually pretty good here.
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: Oh it has for the quarterback, so Devon Vley in
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: the game for the first time today, split widening the
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: right hand side, four man rush coming here for Washington State.
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: Lisks gonna step up away from it, checks it down,
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: then throws it away over the head of Covey at
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: the thirty five yard line, and that'll give the ball
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: back to Washington State. They've got a time out in
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: eleven seconds here, and their kicker's got a really good leg.
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: I mean, Covey was all by himself. I'm not sure
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: if he was gonna get the first down though, because
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: the defender was coming up to grab him. He was
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: about four yards shy of it. But either way, that
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: ball sailed on Drew Lisk incomplete.
- 1:35:48Speaker 8: Yeah, but it's fourth down. You got to give your
- 1:35:50Speaker 8: guy a chance to at least make a play, I mean,
- 1:35:52Speaker 8: at least do something.
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: And Washington State's not gonna take any chances here. They're
- 1:35:58Speaker 1: just gonna go victory formation and take that twenty eight
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: to seven lead into the half. Jade DeLaura step up
- 1:36:05Speaker 1: under center for the first time today. Take a knee.
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: Nopody's gonna scramble out in the right hands.
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: I know they're gonna run the fumble Rooskie play Andrewane
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: Calvin trackled behind the line of scrimmage. It was the
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: old bumble Rooskie and that will take us to halftime
- 1:36:23Speaker 1: here at rice Ecles stayed. Why not? You know what
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: do you have to lose nothing? Final game of the year.
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: Halftime here in rice ecls all Washington State twenty eight
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: to seven. Cougars back with the American first halftime show
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: next to clearfield. I amg College. Thirty minutes down and
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: thirty minutes to go on this season finale Saturday here
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: in Salt Lake City, Utah trailing Washington State twenty eight
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: to seven.
- 1:36:48Speaker 2: A just a disastrous first half for Utah.
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: They did it actually a decent job of moving the ball,
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: but on those drives where they actually moved the ball,
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: they shot themselves in the foot. Would turnovers th first
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: half turnovers led the fourteen to the twenty eight points
- 1:37:03Speaker 1: for Washington State and Utah finds itself Scott the twenty
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: one point whole. Now, that's not insurmountable. You know, we
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: saw Washington come back and beat Utah from twenty one down,
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: you know, a couple of weeks ago. But you know,
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: Washington didn't turn the ball over a bunch of the
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: second half, gave themselves a chance.
- 1:37:19Speaker 2: What's Utah got to do to give itself a chance
- 1:37:21Speaker 2: here in the second half.
- 1:37:22Speaker 8: Well, when you're down by a lot of points, you
- 1:37:25Speaker 8: can't get them all back at once. And a lot
- 1:37:27Speaker 8: of times, what people do, they'll try too hard. They'll
- 1:37:29Speaker 8: try to they'll try to get out of just doing
- 1:37:31Speaker 8: their job and focusing on their responsibility. And that that's
- 1:37:35Speaker 8: what's got Utah in this whole, is that they the
- 1:37:37Speaker 8: team just hasn't taken care of each player. It's it's responsibility.
- 1:37:41Speaker 8: So every guy, just focus on what you do. Sustain
- 1:37:44Speaker 8: a nice drive right here, execute and just say it's
- 1:37:48Speaker 8: just one play to time right now, and then and
- 1:37:49Speaker 8: then get seven points and then and then assess it
- 1:37:52Speaker 8: after that. And you just and you do the same
- 1:37:54Speaker 8: thing defensively, and you just can't get it all back
- 1:37:56Speaker 8: at when there's plenty of time. There's no reason to
- 1:37:58Speaker 8: panic here, but a sense of urgency and a change
- 1:38:02Speaker 8: of mindset has to happen.
- 1:38:04Speaker 1: Well, they've got to hold onto the football first. They've
- 1:38:06Speaker 1: got to do something with it when they have it.
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see will it be Drew Lisk
- 1:38:10Speaker 1: or Jake Bentley coming out here to throw for you, Tom.
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: Because to be very fair, Jake Bentley before he threw
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: that late pick, he had four or maybe five Scott
- 1:38:21Speaker 1: missed throws where he had guys wide open and he
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: didn't put the ball on them, and that sometimes could
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: be almost as costly as the interception, because that's big
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: plays that aren't being made by your team.
- 1:38:33Speaker 8: Yeah, it's huge. One thing we've learned from today's game
- 1:38:36Speaker 8: is how valuable ball location is. You know, it's one
- 1:38:40Speaker 8: thing to throw those bad throws and that just kills you.
- 1:38:42Speaker 8: But even some of the throws that are caught, it's
- 1:38:46Speaker 8: forcing the receivers to make great plays or it's limiting
- 1:38:49Speaker 8: their ability to kind of do what they can do.
- 1:38:51Speaker 8: Get the ball to your playmaker's hands at the right
- 1:38:54Speaker 8: time and in the right location. A lot of good
- 1:38:56Speaker 8: things happen. This is an explosive offense. You saw in
- 1:38:59Speaker 8: one play went a long way ninety yards and that
- 1:39:02Speaker 8: can happen. There's a lot of guys on this team
- 1:39:04Speaker 8: can make it happen. So so just you know, just
- 1:39:08Speaker 8: try not to get it all back.
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: In one play, Washington State will kick off Utah. We'll
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: get the ball to begin to hear in the second half,
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: Andrew Boyle, who's got twenty touchbacks on the season, as
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: it teed up and ready to go back deep to
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: receive it. Britain covering high and end over Andon. Britain's
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: gonna let this be a touchback as it goes nine
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: yards deep, and Utah will be in first and ten
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: at their own twenty five yard line, and we'll check
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: the quarterback coming out on the field here for Utah,
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: and it's gonna be Drew List And.
- 1:39:46Speaker 8: It's kind of nice that Drew actually got some reps
- 1:39:49Speaker 8: before the half, you know, so he kind of gets
- 1:39:51Speaker 8: some of that rust, gets some of that nervousness out,
- 1:39:54Speaker 8: and now he can come out here in the second
- 1:39:55Speaker 8: half and be more effective.
- 1:39:57Speaker 1: Now let's see what he can do. Might be his
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: last go round as a ute senior I'm not sure
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: if you'll come back for fall. First intent for the
- 1:40:06Speaker 1: twenty five yard line, tied Jordan behind Drew List. They
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: handed off to Britain Covey on a fly sweep and
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: he is wrapped up and taken down. Everywhere Covey has
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: gone today save the touchdown, Jahad Woods has been there.
- 1:40:17Speaker 1: In Woods, the All Pack twelve linebacker drops Covey for
- 1:40:21Speaker 1: a four yard loss back of the twenty one yard.
- 1:40:23Speaker 8: Line, and he just saw that play from the very beginning.
- 1:40:25Speaker 8: So often these edge rushers are edge linebackers, they get
- 1:40:29Speaker 8: sucked inside. And just a great job by Jahad there.
- 1:40:32Speaker 8: He read that play from the very beginning.
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: Second half of Utah football being brought to you by
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: University of Utah Health and Sports Medicine. Find him online
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: at uviewealth dot org. Second down in fourteen, back of
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: the twenty one yard line. List in the shotgun takes
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: the snap, hands tied, Jordan, Tie bounces it outside, loses
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: two more yards back to the twenty yard line. Washington
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: State fired up coming out of the locker room and
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: Utah has gone backwards on both plays.
- 1:40:58Speaker 2: Again Jahad Woods with the tackle.
- 1:41:01Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe there's a lot of time limit to this game,
- 1:41:03Speaker 8: and you know maybe the coach Ledwick is just trying
- 1:41:05Speaker 8: to shorten the game by running here. I mean, I
- 1:41:09Speaker 8: know you can't just throw it all the time. But
- 1:41:11Speaker 8: Utah on that on that first downplay, they gotta get
- 1:41:15Speaker 8: more so they're in a manageable third down, which they're
- 1:41:18Speaker 8: not now.
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: No, they are not two out of six on third
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: down in the first half of the uts They face
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: third down and fifteen lists to pass, lots of time.
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: Fire short. It's caught by Bernard. McKay cuts it up
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: the field to the thirty. Oh he almost broke out
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: of a tackle a little bit up the sideline. Instead,
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: it's a ten yard game and fourth down coming up
- 1:41:36Speaker 1: here for Utah. Good job by McKay Bernard to make
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: a tackle or miss and then nearly get first down
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: yardage instead. Now the punt team comes out here for
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: Utah and that was not the drive to begin the
- 1:41:48Speaker 1: second half.
- 1:41:48Speaker 8: Scott, Now you get a little bit of help there.
- 1:41:50Speaker 8: He might get the first down with the block from
- 1:41:51Speaker 8: the wide receiver. Plenty of time for List to throw
- 1:41:54Speaker 8: the ball, but you know it just doesn't see anyone
- 1:41:56Speaker 8: down the field to get open.
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: Ben Lennon on to punt travel Harris and his own
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: twenty nine yard line then gets the kick away.
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: Not bad, high floating kick. Harris is gonna let it hit, and.
- 1:42:08Speaker 1: It does, checks up and Utah docks it down and
- 1:42:11Speaker 1: takes it at about the twenty seven yard line, and
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: that's where Jadeen Delora and Washington tab will begin seventy
- 1:42:18Speaker 1: three yard field in front of them. Jayden DeLaura did
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: not look like a freshman in that first half. Only
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: three games under his belt. First half, fifteen to twenty
- 1:42:26Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty eight yards in a touchdown. He
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: also ran one in yeah, and just.
- 1:42:31Speaker 8: Really really patient with throwing the ball down the field
- 1:42:35Speaker 8: and very poised, I mean, and it just kind of
- 1:42:37Speaker 8: tore apart in this Utah defense in the first half.
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: So the Laura brings out his offense. Max Forgy joins
- 1:42:44Speaker 1: him in the backfield. Two receivers left, two receivers right.
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: They don't really use a tight end in this offense.
- 1:42:51Speaker 1: The Laura waits on the shotgun snap. Now he takes it,
- 1:42:56Speaker 1: delays the hand off to Boord. You will be chased
- 1:42:58Speaker 1: and tacking down by Tennessee Poutou Town back of the
- 1:43:03Speaker 1: twenty three yard line. That's a loss. That was a
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: generous spot. I thought that was a loss of about three.
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: They gave him a loss of two. Oh wow. Putou
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: Ta with another terrific tackle. He is playing his tail
- 1:43:13Speaker 1: off today Tennessee Pootoo Town in place of his brother Hawudi. Yeah.
- 1:43:18Speaker 8: And that's a better adjustment by Utah right there. And
- 1:43:22Speaker 8: just how these two players play on this outside edge
- 1:43:26Speaker 8: on this left side all the way back of the
- 1:43:29Speaker 8: twenty three yard line. Second down in fourteen. The Laura
- 1:43:36Speaker 8: waits on the snap takes and it's high hands it
- 1:43:38Speaker 8: again to Borgy, this time right side, dropped behind the
- 1:43:41Speaker 8: line of scrimmage again that time Devin Lloyd got him.
- 1:43:45Speaker 8: Great read by Lloyd, he looked like Jahad Woods did
- 1:43:48Speaker 8: a moment ago, and Orgy dropped her a three yard loss.
- 1:43:51Speaker 2: And this is gonna bring up third down at seventeen.
- 1:43:54Speaker 9: You know.
- 1:43:54Speaker 8: And it's kind of a challenge for a team that's
- 1:43:56Speaker 8: like a run and shoot team. I mean, you throw
- 1:43:58Speaker 8: the ball predominantly and you have a big lead coming
- 1:44:01Speaker 8: out in the second half, So what do you want
- 1:44:02Speaker 8: to do? You want to eat up the clock and
- 1:44:03Speaker 8: run the ball, and you kind of don't have the
- 1:44:06Speaker 8: same attack mode that you've had in the first half,
- 1:44:08Speaker 8: because clearly these runs are going east and west and
- 1:44:12Speaker 8: not north and south, and Utah is really eating it up.
- 1:44:15Speaker 1: Wazoo two out of six on third down of the
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: first half. They have a third down and seventeen from
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: their own twenty four wide. Look Bordie in the backfield.
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: He'll go out in the pattern down the late handoff
- 1:44:24Speaker 1: to Borgi straight ahead. Max Borgy gets three yards to
- 1:44:28Speaker 1: the twenty three. That's it. Malone monte La made the
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: tackle in the open field and the Utah defense comes
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: out with.
- 1:44:34Speaker 8: A little energy here it gets a three and out. Yeah,
- 1:44:36Speaker 8: and that's really good to see. I mean, just an excellent,
- 1:44:39Speaker 8: excellent series there for Utah. Much better energy. Players are
- 1:44:42Speaker 8: where they're supposed to be, and you see that when
- 1:44:44Speaker 8: they are Guess what happens the defense gets off the field.
- 1:44:48Speaker 1: Fourth down, Here Covey waits for the punt from Dragiesovich
- 1:44:51Speaker 1: from his own thirty one yard line. Good punt by Dragisovich.
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: Covey back pedals and takes it at an eighteen yard
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: line to the outside, goes Britain. Covey. Now he's going
- 1:44:59Speaker 1: to back, that'll come back around and go nowhere dropped
- 1:45:03Speaker 1: at the eighteen yard line. Great coverage by Washington State.
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: Utah didn't do many favors for Britain Covey, and that
- 1:45:09Speaker 1: takes us to a time out. Utah will have it
- 1:45:12Speaker 1: down twenty eight to seven when we get back ten
- 1:45:14Speaker 1: forty eight to play at the third here at Resegle Stadium.
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: It's Washington State twenty eight Utah seven Fromlearfield IMG College.
- 1:45:29Speaker 1: Utah football today being brought to you by CR England
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: and they're one initiative to my childhood hunger. Every child
- 1:45:34Speaker 1: at Utah will be fed. Every hungry child will be fed.
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: For every yard the Utah games on offense this year.
- 1:45:41Speaker 1: See our England will feed a hungry child. Right now,
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: Utah has sixteen hundred and eighty four yards of total offense.
- 1:45:46Speaker 1: At sixteen hundred and eighty four times two is what
- 1:45:50Speaker 1: CR England will feed this year. Thanks to Scott Mitchell's
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: plea and the poet pregame show, see our England will
- 1:45:55Speaker 1: feed whatever the yard it is times two this year.
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: Thank you to see our England. Bill Ryley, He's Gott Mitchell.
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: Scott in basketball we say It's a make or miss game, right.
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: It's a Baker miss game in basketball, in football, you
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: know you're gonna be about as good as you are
- 1:46:09Speaker 1: on the turnover battle. Utah wins the game if they
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: win the turnover battle. Generally that happens. They lost to
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: usc they were minus three. They lost to Washington. They
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: were minus one. They beat OSU, they were plus one.
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: They beat was Colorado. They were plus two. Today they're
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: minus three and they're losing their minus four on the season.
- 1:46:27Speaker 1: In turnover margin of the US first and ten, Drew
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: List quarterback backpedaling servying, throws it outside. That's cod juggled
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: by Brian Thompson and out beyond the thirty five to
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: the thirty nine yard line for a gain of seventeen
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: yards on first down. Good pitch and catch.
- 1:46:45Speaker 2: That time Washington stayed playing a little off.
- 1:46:47Speaker 8: Yeah, and clearly Brian Thompson's run every route to the inside,
- 1:46:51Speaker 8: he fakes the inside, goes outside, and Drew List does
- 1:46:54Speaker 8: a nice job of putting the ball on him where
- 1:46:56Speaker 8: he can make make a play and get extra yards.
- 1:46:58Speaker 8: Nice great first down. Have seen it from the very
- 1:47:01Speaker 8: beginning of his game.
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: First in ten Utah for the thirty nine Bentley. Bentley
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: stays on the sideline high on Ty Jordan second level
- 1:47:11Speaker 1: fifty forty getting down as I get choked up with
- 1:47:16Speaker 1: a Utah big we have team any of those. I
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: got a little emotional there on the choke up by
- 1:47:20Speaker 1: Ty Jordan.
- 1:47:21Speaker 2: The great run.
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: George Hicks made the tackle, but not before Ty picks
- 1:47:25Speaker 1: up as we counted back twenty six yards on.
- 1:47:28Speaker 8: The Kerry Tye. Now on the day, nine carries and
- 1:47:31Speaker 8: seventy two yards. Yeah, what makes his play is ty
- 1:47:34Speaker 8: Dirk Jordan. It's kind of a zone read and he
- 1:47:37Speaker 8: gets one cut. He cuts and he goes north and
- 1:47:39Speaker 8: south and it's just off to the races after that.
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: So first in ten Utah, good drive here on the
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: second drive of the second half. But the Wazoo thirty
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: five Covey of the Motion Man play action role, Jake's
- 1:47:50Speaker 1: got time. Jake throws in the flat. He's got Covey out.
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: They're inside thirty five and down to the thirty two
- 1:47:54Speaker 1: yard line. What a cut inside by Covey. He looked
- 1:47:57Speaker 1: like he was gonna be dropped for a loss and
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: picked up three and dead and he's down right now.
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: Covey's down on the turf right now, Simmi Mua trying
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: to help him up. But Britain's down. You hope it's
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: nothing serious. He's battled so many injury issues to get
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: back on the field this year. He'll be helped up
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: and off the field, and he seems to be okay.
- 1:48:18Speaker 1: He wants to go back to the huddle, but I
- 1:48:20Speaker 1: think they're gonna make him come off the field. He
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: looks like it might have been his back or his
- 1:48:24Speaker 1: backside that got hurt that time. Maybe twisted a little
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: bit on the tackle. Yeah, he kind of got slammed down.
- 1:48:29Speaker 1: Could be a shoulder or something. I'm okay with shoulders
- 1:48:31Speaker 1: with wide receivers, I'm not okay with knees and ankles.
- 1:48:35Speaker 2: I think Britain would agree with you there.
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: If your list now seven of eleven for fifty five yards,
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: doing a good job in place of Bentley who was
- 1:48:43Speaker 1: benched at the end of the first half. Second down
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: at seven for the Wazoo thirty two yard line. Mackay
- 1:48:50Speaker 1: Bernard at the ballgame. Now list to pass four man rush,
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: lots of time. He's gonna step up and tuck it.
- 1:48:57Speaker 1: Here goes dru he's got the twenty five and down,
- 1:49:00Speaker 1: they'll mark him at the twenty six. Just shy a
- 1:49:02Speaker 1: first down yardage, nothing down the field. So he tucked
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: it and ran and picked up about five yards. Third
- 1:49:08Speaker 1: down and one coming up.
- 1:49:09Speaker 8: Yeah, it looks like they're trying to do some delay
- 1:49:11Speaker 8: action over here to the tight ends on the right.
- 1:49:14Speaker 8: No one shows up, and just a good decision by Drew.
- 1:49:17Speaker 8: Not a guy necessarily known for a scrambling, but the
- 1:49:20Speaker 8: nice thing that he does there, he just he hits
- 1:49:22Speaker 8: the hole and he gets upfield and gets positive yards.
- 1:49:25Speaker 1: Nick Ford had to come out of the game. On
- 1:49:27Speaker 1: third down, they're gonna turn and roll it list out
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: to the right, looking down the field, throws it down
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: the field. That's gonna be past interference. Where's the flag?
- 1:49:35Speaker 1: The tight end Fotheringham was hooked by the linebacker Justice Rogers,
- 1:49:40Speaker 1: and it goes incomplete. So fourth down and one now
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: for Utah. I swear to you Fatheringham got hooked on
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: that play.
- 1:49:48Speaker 8: Yeah, right on the left side, you can see, and
- 1:49:50Speaker 8: that backfield judge watches the tight end and should see
- 1:49:53Speaker 8: that because he's from behind it. He sees that left
- 1:49:55Speaker 8: hand oh Man reach around to Fotheringham. It's not a
- 1:49:58Speaker 8: very good call.
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a miss.
- 1:50:00Speaker 8: Yeah, And really Drew Lisz should have hit the first
- 1:50:02Speaker 8: guy out of the backfield get the first down.
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: The guy was open. So fourth down and one down
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: for Utah. McKay Bernard, the tailback list under center Utah
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: motions Keithy. They tossed sweep outside McKay Bernard. First down
- 1:50:14Speaker 1: yard is twenty five to twenty, runs over a man
- 1:50:16Speaker 1: and gets down to about the fifteen maybe sixteen yard line.
- 1:50:19Speaker 1: Good run by Bernard. It was Derek Langford who forced
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: him out of bounds. He ran over the safety who
- 1:50:25Speaker 1: came up to make the play. And that's a pick
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: up of eleven yards on the run by McKay Bernard
- 1:50:30Speaker 1: and the first down for Utah. First down and go
- 1:50:32Speaker 1: first trip into the red zone today for the US.
- 1:50:33Speaker 8: Well, there's more energy for Utah on this drive. And
- 1:50:37Speaker 8: that was the kind of the counter off of that
- 1:50:39Speaker 8: fly sweep with Brandt Keithy that you know was going
- 1:50:42Speaker 8: to go to the right there.
- 1:50:43Speaker 1: But Bernard man, he just he trucked that guy.
- 1:50:46Speaker 2: McKay stays at the ball game.
- 1:50:47Speaker 1: Here. They motioned Keithy across the formation on first down
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: in ten for the Wazoo fifteen lisp looking dumps it
- 1:50:54Speaker 1: off over the middle. He's got Keithy and that's a
- 1:50:56Speaker 1: short game. Brand picks up maybe three yards to about
- 1:51:00Speaker 1: the twelve yard line. He was actually coming backwards toward
- 1:51:04Speaker 1: the play, kind of lost his momentum up the field,
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: dead time in a three yard game, and.
- 1:51:07Speaker 8: This is just kind of have a crossing route here
- 1:51:09Speaker 8: between these the running back and the tight end. And
- 1:51:13Speaker 8: you know, if Drew sees this again, he's gonna get
- 1:51:16Speaker 8: kay Bernard going out to the right. The right side,
- 1:51:18Speaker 8: he's wide open. Keithy was more covered on that play.
- 1:51:21Speaker 2: No backs to the ball game. Now, Keithy in the backfield.
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: Second down at seven for the Wazoo twelve fly sweep,
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: Britton Covey. Britain's gonna be tackled from behind and then
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: a flag flies and we got all kinds of issues
- 1:51:35Speaker 1: here on Utah. I think they're going to have an
- 1:51:37Speaker 1: illegal shift or not. Everybody on the line of scrimmage
- 1:51:40Speaker 1: or has had an off side Maybe let's see.
- 1:51:42Speaker 9: Offside defense number forty four lined up in the neutral
- 1:51:46Speaker 9: zone five yard penalty replay.
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: Second down. Well, that's a break for Utah. That flag
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: came in late. Usually on off side they throwed right away.
- 1:51:54Speaker 1: It kind of came in late. That's why I thought
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: it might have been an illegal shift. Instead, Utah will
- 1:51:59Speaker 1: get five to three yards here and they can use it.
- 1:52:01Speaker 1: It'll be second down.
- 1:52:02Speaker 8: And I wondered why that penetration got through there. The
- 1:52:07Speaker 8: guy was halfway in the backfield before.
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: The snap of the ball for the Washington State seven
- 1:52:11Speaker 1: yard line. Now Utah down twenty eight to seven midway
- 1:52:14Speaker 1: through the third quarter. They have to get a touchdown here.
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: Bernard in the ball game, turning a give Mackay Bernard
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: straight ahead to the five and that'll be first down
- 1:52:22Speaker 1: yard its It'll be first and goal for Utah as
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: Bernard just buries his head, follows the left side of
- 1:52:27Speaker 1: that offensive line, including Nick Ford, and picks up the
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: yard he's needed first and goal now at the five
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: yard line.
- 1:52:34Speaker 8: Yeah, in a lot of players, Utah has done a
- 1:52:36Speaker 8: nice job of just creating a surge at that line
- 1:52:39Speaker 8: of scrimmage, you know, just kind of a wave of
- 1:52:42Speaker 8: red right there in. The backs have been able to
- 1:52:43Speaker 8: just run through it and get those tough two and
- 1:52:46Speaker 8: three yard plays.
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: Ty Jordan back of the ball game now, two tights,
- 1:52:50Speaker 1: two lines on first and goal for the five yard line,
- 1:52:54Speaker 1: Wazoo with about nine near the line of scrimmage. Turning
- 1:52:57Speaker 1: a gift Ty Jordan, He's into the end zone.
- 1:52:59Speaker 2: Touchdown.
- 1:53:00Speaker 1: That was easy, big old hole on the right hand side,
- 1:53:04Speaker 1: and Ty Jordan walks in untouched, and Utah gets a
- 1:53:08Speaker 1: much needed touchdown, ty Jordan's fourth of the season and
- 1:53:11Speaker 1: a chance to cut this Wazoo lead in half with
- 1:53:13Speaker 1: six h nine to play the third.
- 1:53:15Speaker 8: And you got Covey going on the fly sweep action,
- 1:53:17Speaker 8: and so the defensive line and linebackers fly out to
- 1:53:21Speaker 8: get Covey and it creates this just massive hole on
- 1:53:24Speaker 8: the inside that I think you and I together Bill
- 1:53:27Speaker 8: could run through.
- 1:53:28Speaker 4: Ah.
- 1:53:30Speaker 1: That's a Pepsi touchdown. Pepsi proud partners of Utah Athletics.
- 1:53:34Speaker 1: Jayden reading on for the pat good hold, good snap,
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: kick is up, kick is good. Jayden stays perfect on
- 1:53:42Speaker 1: the year, and that takes us to a time out.
- 1:53:44Speaker 1: Good scoring drive for Utah. Nine plays, eighty one yards
- 1:53:48Speaker 1: and four thirty nine off the game clock. Still a
- 1:53:51Speaker 1: ballgame here. Utah's got to get some stops. If they're
- 1:53:54Speaker 1: only down fourteen six zho nine to play twenty eight
- 1:53:56Speaker 1: fourteen Wazoo from Learfield IMG College back in Rice ecl

- 1:54:46Speaker 2: What did you like on that last scoring drives?
- 1:54:47Speaker 8: You know, Utah didn't do anything different and run different routes,
- 1:54:50Speaker 8: didn't run different running plays, but they just had like
- 1:54:53Speaker 8: some some pep in their step. There was just more
- 1:54:56Speaker 8: energy and there was more focus and it.
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: Was just clear.
- 1:54:59Speaker 8: I mean, you could see same thing with the defense
- 1:55:01Speaker 8: on their first possession. There was just a better intensity
- 1:55:05Speaker 8: and it was nothing more than that, just better execution
- 1:55:08Speaker 8: on plays they've been doing all day.
- 1:55:09Speaker 1: Let's see if the Utah defense could keep that momentum
- 1:55:12Speaker 1: going here on the second drive and a half of
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: Washington State Wazoo first intent from their own twenty five
- 1:55:18Speaker 1: leading in twenty eight to fourteen, Jay Dolores had a
- 1:55:20Speaker 1: good day today. Stands in the shotgun with Dion McIntosh,
- 1:55:24Speaker 1: takes the snap and back pedals to pass, surveys, fires outside.
- 1:55:28Speaker 1: It's caught right in front of the defensive back to
- 1:55:31Speaker 1: Travis Brought and the catch made that time by Jermaine
- 1:55:34Speaker 1: Calvin is having a really good day today. Samir Calvin
- 1:55:37Speaker 1: with that catch and that's gonna be a pickup of
- 1:55:39Speaker 1: eight yards on first down.
- 1:55:40Speaker 8: That's that they love throwing those long out Scott. Those
- 1:55:43Speaker 8: long passes so dangerous again. I'd still if I'm if
- 1:55:47Speaker 8: I'm Utah, I'm challenging that more. You know, it's off coverage,
- 1:55:52Speaker 8: press him, make him, make it even harder for that
- 1:55:54Speaker 8: quarterback and throw that route.
- 1:55:56Speaker 1: Second down in two Wazuo Macintosh stays at the ball game.
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: Four wide look here for the Cougars.
- 1:56:03Speaker 1: And off back in Tosh drop behind the line of
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: scrimmage edge blitz that time and coming off the edge,
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd wraps him up and takes him down for
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: a two yard lost back to the thirty one. Third
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: down coming up, and.
- 1:56:17Speaker 8: Both Devin Lloyd and Nate Richie blitz A on the
- 1:56:19Speaker 8: outside kind of had the right call on for the
- 1:56:23Speaker 8: right situation there. Short yardage. You know, Washington State wants
- 1:56:27Speaker 8: to eat some of the clock. You'll probably try to
- 1:56:29Speaker 8: run and get the first down. And Utah just did
- 1:56:31Speaker 8: a great job of a loss of two yard.
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: Coote super seven in the ballgame on third down zero
- 1:56:36Speaker 1: for one. Here in the half, they've got to reach
- 1:56:38Speaker 1: the thirty five for a first down. Third down and
- 1:56:41Speaker 1: four Delora spreads the field, back pedals to pass, surveys
- 1:56:46Speaker 1: nothing there, fires over the middle, intercepting and drop Davis.
- 1:56:52Speaker 1: He had it at midfield and that would have been
- 1:56:56Speaker 1: a big play coming back the other way because there
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: was nobody on the opposite side of the field.
- 1:57:00Speaker 2: Instead, the punk team will come out for Wazoo.
- 1:57:05Speaker 8: See that's why guys are defensive back because they can't
- 1:57:09Speaker 8: catch the ball.
- 1:57:09Speaker 1: It was right right.
- 1:57:12Speaker 8: Vante's hands, I mean right in his hands.
- 1:57:14Speaker 1: Tregiesovich to punt. They come after it, they don't get it.
- 1:57:18Speaker 1: It's another missile. Cuvey's gonna take it. It to twenty
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: makes a man miss up to the near sideline, twenty five,
- 1:57:23Speaker 1: back to the inside thirty and down at about the
- 1:57:26Speaker 1: thirty two yard light solid return by Britain Covey. Twelve
- 1:57:28Speaker 1: yards on that one and Utah gets the stop on defense.
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: Now what can Drew list do with the offense when
- 1:57:34Speaker 1: we get back four thirty three to play in the
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: third quarter. Washington State twenty eight Utah fourteen for the

- 1:58:43Speaker 1: Utah's defense showing some life here on the second half.
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: Can Utah's offense continue that down twenty eight to fourteen
- 1:58:49Speaker 1: with four point thirty three to play here the third
- 1:58:52Speaker 1: Liz brings the offense back out again. Lisk under center,
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: Tight Jordan behind it. Come in the motion man hand
- 1:59:00Speaker 1: off Ty Jordan into the hole. Ghost Tie keeps those
- 1:59:03Speaker 1: feet moving beyond the forty and out to the forty
- 1:59:05Speaker 1: six almost forty seven yard line. What a run by
- 1:59:09Speaker 1: Ty Jordan picks up fifteen yards on first down.
- 1:59:13Speaker 8: Yeah, and it's nice that they have Covey kind of
- 1:59:15Speaker 8: as a combination this in this running game. So you
- 1:59:18Speaker 8: fake the fly sweep and then you hit ty Jordan
- 1:59:22Speaker 8: up in the middle. But like I said before, this
- 1:59:24Speaker 8: guy is so complete. He can run up and get
- 1:59:26Speaker 8: those tough yards and get those fast yards on the edge.
- 1:59:28Speaker 1: Eleven carries ninety one yards here today for Ty Jordan
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: first down at ten, Utah's list changes the play of
- 1:59:34Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, backpedals to pass four man rush,
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: dumps it off caught into Utah stoor. Watch to Washington
- 1:59:40Speaker 1: State territory. Britton Covey on a little option route that
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: time picks up eleven yards in another Utah first down.
- 1:59:47Speaker 8: Kevin, and just see where the location is perfectly thrown past,
- 1:59:51Speaker 8: not behind him, not behind him, and he can run.
- 1:59:54Speaker 8: So he just turns upfield. It's a ten yard play
- 1:59:56Speaker 8: on first down on a simple out route. Ballo is
- 2:00:00Speaker 8: so valuable in the passing game.
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: Drew list now nine out of fourteen for sixty nine yards.
- 2:00:06Speaker 1: And what do we have. It's like a substitute coming
- 2:00:12Speaker 1: in for Washington State. Jordan stays in the ballgame. List
- 2:00:17Speaker 1: goes under center, turning a gift to tie, bounces it
- 2:00:20Speaker 1: into the hole. Ty Jordan to the forty, stays on
- 2:00:23Speaker 1: his feet, picks up a little extra yardage, and picks
- 2:00:25Speaker 1: up seven down to the thirty seven yard line. Good
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: run on first down, Ty Jordan closing in on another
- 2:00:32Speaker 1: one hundred yard game. Twelve carries now ninety eight yards
- 2:00:35Speaker 1: with a freshman from Mesquite, Texas.
- 2:00:37Speaker 8: Yeah, and such a nice surge there again by that
- 2:00:39Speaker 8: offensive line. I mean, it doesn't look like a lot,
- 2:00:41Speaker 8: but it's a seven yard gain and just it's all
- 2:00:45Speaker 8: about just getting off that line line of scrimmage.
- 2:00:47Speaker 1: And we really haven't seen him break that big one
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: yet today, Ty Jordan, it's been five yards, seven yards,
- 2:00:53Speaker 1: nine yards, twelve yards. Got an injured player down that
- 2:00:57Speaker 1: looks like Michael van Beek for Washington State. Double check that.
- 2:01:13Speaker 1: I think it was number eighty four, Maybe it was
- 2:01:15Speaker 1: sixty four, Okay, then it's Michael van Beek. How dare
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: I question the spotting knowledge of Matt Roblez, who's got
- 2:01:27Speaker 1: his eyes on it? Here? Van Beek down second down
- 2:01:32Speaker 1: at about three here for Utah clock stopped for the
- 2:01:34Speaker 1: time being three ten to play here in the third quarter,
- 2:01:37Speaker 1: you talk with another promising drive. Red Box has got
- 2:01:41Speaker 1: movies both dreaming and on demand and at the box
- 2:01:44Speaker 1: don't miss Fatman starring Mel Gibson. Redbox dot Com for
- 2:01:47Speaker 1: all the ways you want to watch, and you get
- 2:01:49Speaker 1: that Fat Man later tonight. After this, Utah bat a
- 2:01:53Speaker 1: football game. But Kybern are now at the ballgame for
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: Utah second down in three to two tight ends here
- 2:02:01Speaker 1: play action roll to the right for list. He's got
- 2:02:03Speaker 1: a man open throws it complete, bothering him out of
- 2:02:05Speaker 1: bounds in the Washington States twenty three yard line. That's
- 2:02:09Speaker 1: another great game. And he gave a thirteen make it
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: fourteen yards and a Utah first down. Drew Lisko's really
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: comfortable right now, Scott. He's gotten in a nice rhythm here.
- 2:02:18Speaker 8: Nice rhythm, great play because you know Utah has been
- 2:02:20Speaker 8: able to effectively run the ball here and he goes
- 2:02:24Speaker 8: bootleg to the open side. There's no no edge blocker
- 2:02:27Speaker 8: for him, and the tight end all the way from
- 2:02:29Speaker 8: across the field. Nice design play.
- 2:02:32Speaker 1: Three tight ends this time for ty Jordan. They turn
- 2:02:36Speaker 1: and give it the tie straight ahead. Oh, he's wrapped
- 2:02:39Speaker 1: up and taken down. One of the few times he
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: was dropped in the line of scrimmage falls forward for
- 2:02:42Speaker 1: two yards. Dylan Sherman, the sam linebacker, got him. Boy,
- 2:02:46Speaker 1: look for a minute like there was gonna be a
- 2:02:47Speaker 1: pretty big hole there for Ty. Jordan and Keithy blocks
- 2:02:50Speaker 1: to the backside. It looks like if Ty goes the
- 2:02:53Speaker 1: other way, he might have something right at one hundred
- 2:02:56Speaker 1: yards Now they handed on the outside to Keithy. He's
- 2:02:59Speaker 1: got the fifteen. Keep these out of bounds in the
- 2:03:01Speaker 1: Washington State. Where will they mark him the eleven yard line?
- 2:03:05Speaker 1: It'll be about three yards now he's got first down
- 2:03:07Speaker 1: yardage that it'll be another Utah first down Verston ten.
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: They can make a first down at the one yard line,
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: and Utah put together nice to another nice drive with
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: under two minutes to play here in the third quarter.
- 2:03:18Speaker 8: And what was nice is they caught Washington State kind
- 2:03:20Speaker 8: of not ready for that play, which allowed.
- 2:03:23Speaker 1: Him to get on the edge very easy. Little Thompson
- 2:03:25Speaker 1: splits wide to the right hand side. Everybody else are
- 2:03:27Speaker 1: tight ends in the formation. Now for Utah. McKay bernard
- 2:03:31Speaker 1: the tailback from the eleven yard line, Wazoo crabs a
- 2:03:34Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. They handed to McKai bernard hesitates, hits
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: the hole and picks up two almost three yards to
- 2:03:40Speaker 1: the eight yard line. A geggal of cougar tackler's there
- 2:03:44Speaker 1: to grab him and wrap him up and take him down.
- 2:03:47Speaker 1: Call it second down at eight now for the nine
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: yard line.
- 2:03:50Speaker 8: Such a heavy, heavy run formation. Three tight ends and
- 2:03:55Speaker 8: you know, first down. Great time to call play action.
- 2:03:57Speaker 8: Run a tight end to the flat one to the corner.
- 2:04:00Speaker 8: That play has been open for Utah in the past.
- 2:04:02Speaker 8: You know, of course Jake Bentley missed it, but it's
- 2:04:04Speaker 8: been open now.
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: Bernard the loan back to wide receivers. Two tight ends
- 2:04:09Speaker 1: from the nine yard line of Washington State, and off
- 2:04:13Speaker 1: fly sweep.
- 2:04:13Speaker 2: Brian Thompson's got the edge, he's got.
- 2:04:15Speaker 1: The ten, he's got the five, he's got the butt line.
- 2:04:18Speaker 1: Touchdown Ryan Thompson from nine yards away, and Utah's right
- 2:04:25Speaker 1: back in it with fifty five seconds to play here
- 2:04:27Speaker 1: the third quarter, pat coming up off the Pepsi touchdown.
- 2:04:31Speaker 1: But a great call of the fly sweep, this time
- 2:04:34Speaker 1: to the wide receiver Brian Thomas.
- 2:04:36Speaker 8: We haven't seen Brian Thompson run the ball, but he
- 2:04:38Speaker 8: looks good. Great blocking by the tight end and the
- 2:04:42Speaker 8: receivers on the right hand side. That's hard to hold
- 2:04:45Speaker 8: that edge as long as they did. But Thompson showed
- 2:04:47Speaker 8: a lot of speed coming all the way from the
- 2:04:49Speaker 8: left to the right to get a touchdown. He's a player, Bill.
- 2:04:52Speaker 8: I'm just telling you they they gotta find ways to
- 2:04:54Speaker 8: get him more involved in this whole deal.
- 2:04:57Speaker 2: I have been saying it for three years now.
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: A healthy Brian Thompson, He's one of the best receivers
- 2:05:02Speaker 1: in the Pac twelve pad. Good Bye, Jaydon, Redding and
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: Scott We've got ourselves a ballgame here. With fifty five
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: seconds to play in the third, Utah, who was down
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: twenty eight to seven at halftime, now have cut into
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: twenty eight twenty one time out of the field. We're
- 2:05:16Speaker 1: back to rice secles after this from Learfield, I AMG
- 2:05:19Speaker 1: College got ourselves a little bit of a ballgame here,
- 2:05:27Speaker 1: rice cycles. Now Utah has answered, and their defense and
- 2:05:30Speaker 1: offense whatever number Kyle Winningham said at halftime has taken hold.
- 2:05:34Speaker 1: It's twenty eight twenty one was zoo That last scoring
- 2:05:36Speaker 1: drive for Utah eighth lay sixty eight yards and three
- 2:05:39Speaker 1: thirty eight off the game clock. Ups Springs is our

- 2:05:55Speaker 1: Hopefully you'll get your vaccine and we'll get you back
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: in the booth with us next year. It's the first
- 2:06:00Speaker 1: time since Ucla last year, Scott, that Utah has had
- 2:06:03Speaker 1: a one hundred yard rusher and a one hundred yard.
- 2:06:05Speaker 2: Receiver in the game.
- 2:06:09Speaker 1: Britain Covey's over one hundred ty Jordans had one hundred
- 2:06:12Speaker 1: last year. Was Moss and Keithy against Ucla.
- 2:06:16Speaker 8: Well, I liked that. It's a wide receiver. Nothing against
- 2:06:19Speaker 8: fran Keithy, But man, I mean Coveyes, you know a threat.
- 2:06:23Speaker 8: So is Brian Thompson, So is Keithy, so is Jordan.
- 2:06:27Speaker 8: I'm telling you this Utah offense is.
- 2:06:29Speaker 1: Loaded and Drew Lisk is just doing what a good
- 2:06:33Speaker 1: quarterback should do, getting his playmakers the ball. Here's noises
- 2:06:36Speaker 1: kickoff Trevelle Harris takes it two yards steep and they'll
- 2:06:39Speaker 1: bring it out ten to the fifteen lookout, he's got
- 2:06:41Speaker 1: the outside Trevell Harris to the twenty and drapped up
- 2:06:44Speaker 1: and taken down at the twenty six yard line. Hayden
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: Fury made the tackle on special teams for Utah, and
- 2:06:50Speaker 1: it looked for a minute like he might have the edge,
- 2:06:52Speaker 1: but Hayden Fury tracked him down and made a good play.
- 2:06:54Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, Jayden Delora and that offense,
- 2:06:58Speaker 1: which was so good in the first half, they've been
- 2:07:00Speaker 1: awfully quiet here in the third quarter.
- 2:07:02Speaker 2: Scot Let's see what the Utah defense could do here.
- 2:07:04Speaker 8: Yeah, when you come out and you kind of try
- 2:07:05Speaker 8: to ball control, slow things down, you lose some of
- 2:07:09Speaker 8: that edge you kind of have, which what Washington State
- 2:07:12Speaker 8: had in that first half.
- 2:07:13Speaker 1: Utah still not pressing those wide receivers though, Borgiy and
- 2:07:16Speaker 1: the ball game two left and two right for jad
- 2:07:18Speaker 1: and Dolaura. On first down from his own twenty six
- 2:07:20Speaker 1: yard line, Utah with five of the line of scrimmage,
- 2:07:25Speaker 1: the lord to pass first down. Here comes the pressure
- 2:07:27Speaker 1: up the middle, fires outside behind this man Calvin and
- 2:07:31Speaker 1: incomplete and Jamier Calvin wide opening about the forty five.
- 2:07:34Speaker 2: But he misfired.
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: And that's one of the few times today we've seen
- 2:07:37Speaker 1: DeLaura miss on an open wide receiver.
- 2:07:39Speaker 8: Yeah, and he kind of rushes his throw just a
- 2:07:41Speaker 8: little bit because he certainly has it and just just
- 2:07:44Speaker 8: throws it at little behind there.
- 2:07:47Speaker 1: So here we go second down and ten Utah looks
- 2:07:50Speaker 1: to the sideline. They've got their defensive call from Morgan
- 2:07:53Speaker 1: Scaley d Laura backs up into the shotgun. Borgy stays
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: with him there. Utah with six in the box. Right now,
- 2:08:01Speaker 1: Orgie comes to the left of Jayden Dolora, backpedaling to pass.
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: The freshman from Honolulu, fires it wide outside. It's caught
- 2:08:10Speaker 1: there at the thirty and wrapped up at the thirty five,
- 2:08:14Speaker 1: and they wait a minute, they're gonna stop his progress
- 2:08:16Speaker 1: at the thirty four yard line. That's Joey Hobart with
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: his first catch today, and he'll be two yards shy
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: of first down yardage.
- 2:08:23Speaker 2: That was a quick whistle that benefited Utah right there.
- 2:08:26Speaker 1: Yeah, it really did.
- 2:08:26Speaker 8: And because it looked like that the offense kind of
- 2:08:30Speaker 8: moved him forward, it didn't look like the play was
- 2:08:32Speaker 8: quite over.
- 2:08:32Speaker 1: But you know, that'll be the final play of the
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: third quarter here at rise Ecles Stadium. A third quarter
- 2:08:38Speaker 1: that Utah owned, which was good to see forty five
- 2:08:42Speaker 1: minutes in the books, fifteen to play here on the
- 2:08:45Speaker 1: final day of football in Salt Lake City in twenty twenty.
- 2:08:48Speaker 1: It's Washington State twenty eight in Utah twenty one. This
- 2:08:51Speaker 1: is Utah football from Learfield IMG College. Today's Utah football

- 2:09:11Speaker 1: twelve information on the radio with SiriusXM. What a difference
- 2:09:15Speaker 1: halftime makes, Scott, how about these third quarter numbers? Utah
- 2:09:18Speaker 1: had nine first downs one hundred and forty nine yards
- 2:09:22Speaker 1: eighty nine yards rushing, sixty yards passing. Washington State had
- 2:09:26Speaker 1: zero first downs, ten total yards minus six rushing and
- 2:09:31Speaker 1: sixteen yards passing. That's allowed Utah to get back in
- 2:09:35Speaker 1: this game, down just seven right now with a whole
- 2:09:38Speaker 1: quarter to play. Yeah, and what's been nice as Utah
- 2:09:40Speaker 1: can still run their whole offense. You still have Ty
- 2:09:44Speaker 1: Jordan as part of what you're doing and Utah very
- 2:09:47Speaker 1: patiently hasn't panicked, and they've they've had a nice balance
- 2:09:51Speaker 1: of run and pass, and Drew Lisk has done a
- 2:09:54Speaker 1: nice job of throwing the ball in the right location,
- 2:09:57Speaker 1: and Andy Lodwick calling some great plays and mix give
- 2:10:00Speaker 1: up a bit, and this defense has just played.
- 2:10:02Speaker 8: With a little a lot more energy and enthusiasm than
- 2:10:06Speaker 8: it was in the first half.
- 2:10:08Speaker 1: Drew Lisk, who came in late in the first half
- 2:10:11Speaker 1: after they benched Jake Bentley after the just unconscionable interception
- 2:10:15Speaker 1: that he threw to Jihad Woods, who's, by the way,
- 2:10:17Speaker 1: having an All American day to day, Lisk is ten
- 2:10:20Speaker 1: of fifteen for eighty two yards. He's also rushed one
- 2:10:24Speaker 1: time for six yards. And Scott, I think what you
- 2:10:27Speaker 1: like most and what you're seeing out of Drew Lisk
- 2:10:29Speaker 1: is the passes he's throwing are all catchable for his
- 2:10:32Speaker 1: wide receivers.
- 2:10:34Speaker 8: You've got these great players. What they're they're not good
- 2:10:38Speaker 8: at just catching it right. They're good after they catch
- 2:10:41Speaker 8: the ball. That's when they're they're at their best. And
- 2:10:43Speaker 8: you put them in a position to put pressure on
- 2:10:46Speaker 8: the defense. Make those defensive players make it play, make
- 2:10:49Speaker 8: them tackle you and you get out an open space
- 2:10:51Speaker 8: like some of these guys can, and they can make
- 2:10:53Speaker 8: big plays. They can make touchdown plays, and it's it's
- 2:10:56Speaker 8: not your job to you know, just throw it, catch
- 2:10:59Speaker 8: it to him, get it to him early, and great
- 2:11:02Speaker 8: things will happen.
- 2:11:03Speaker 1: A big third down here, Washington State zero for two
- 2:11:06Speaker 1: in the second half on third down two out of
- 2:11:08Speaker 1: eight in the ballgame. He's a third and two from
- 2:11:11Speaker 1: their own thirty four yard line. Dion McIntosh is the
- 2:11:14Speaker 1: back of the ball game. Utah pressing a little bit
- 2:11:16Speaker 1: more on the wide receivers now Delora and the shotgun
- 2:11:21Speaker 1: taking his time. Utah was seven near the line of scrimmage.
- 2:11:25Speaker 1: The lord to pass, He's gonna roll out to his right,
- 2:11:28Speaker 1: pressure coming in his face.
- 2:11:29Speaker 3: Hey sacked and take it down on Dake Davis on
- 2:11:34Speaker 3: the safety flits dropped to Laura all the way back
- 2:11:37Speaker 3: at the twenty two yard line.
- 2:11:40Speaker 8: That is a big time play by Devonte Davis because
- 2:11:43Speaker 8: he read the rollout.
- 2:11:44Speaker 1: He did it.
- 2:11:45Speaker 8: He just beat Deloria for before he got on the
- 2:11:49Speaker 8: edge there and then he makes a tackle in the
- 2:11:50Speaker 8: open field. So often these quarterbacks can throw the ball
- 2:11:54Speaker 8: and he didn't even give him a chance to just
- 2:11:55Speaker 8: throw the ball away.
- 2:11:56Speaker 1: Now Britton Covey with a chance to make a big play.
- 2:11:58Speaker 1: The punt by Drigisa, it's high and spiraling. Britain's gonna
- 2:12:02Speaker 1: have a chance to return it for the twenty five upfield.
- 2:12:05Speaker 1: He comes twenty five thirty and that's in good coverage
- 2:12:08Speaker 1: by the Washington State special teams. A five yard returned
- 2:12:11Speaker 1: by Covey, and now Utah, who are down by twenty
- 2:12:14Speaker 1: one at halftime, have a chance on this drive to
- 2:12:17Speaker 1: perhaps tie it up. They've scored touchdowns on their last
- 2:12:20Speaker 1: two drives, They've got a thirty yard field and plenty
- 2:12:24Speaker 1: of time to work. Scott with fourteen to sixteen to
- 2:12:26Speaker 1: play the ball game.
- 2:12:27Speaker 8: Oh yeah, great, great job on defense to get off
- 2:12:29Speaker 8: the field on that third down. But Covey on that punt,
- 2:12:32Speaker 8: I'm telling you he did not hit that like he
- 2:12:35Speaker 8: normally does. I'm not being overly weird here, but I'm
- 2:12:39Speaker 8: not sure he's got the same explosion.
- 2:12:42Speaker 1: Three wide receivers, a tight end, and Tie Jordan in
- 2:12:45Speaker 1: the ballgame. Seven in the box here for Washington State
- 2:12:48Speaker 1: first down handoff Ty Jordan. Not much there, A yard
- 2:12:52Speaker 1: maybe two to the thirty two yard line. Tie has
- 2:12:55Speaker 1: now got fourteen carries at one hundred and two yards
- 2:12:58Speaker 1: on the afternoon. That was pretty straight forward run play
- 2:13:01Speaker 1: that time by Utahon. Washington State sniffed it out. They'll
- 2:13:03Speaker 1: give him a one yard game.
- 2:13:05Speaker 8: Yeah, Simmy Mula actually got beat to the inside there
- 2:13:08Speaker 8: and he was trying to set the defender up to
- 2:13:10Speaker 8: go outside, and he just duck to the inside and
- 2:13:13Speaker 8: made a play.
- 2:13:14Speaker 1: Thompson splits right with Covey us Shultz to the left
- 2:13:19Speaker 1: hand side on second down and nine, list changing the
- 2:13:23Speaker 1: play with Jordan in the backfield with it, Drew takes
- 2:13:25Speaker 1: a high snap back pedals to throw fires outside. It's
- 2:13:29Speaker 1: behind Brian Thompson. Just as I say, he throws catchable balls.
- 2:13:33Speaker 1: He goes in complete coverage was there. But if that
- 2:13:36Speaker 1: balls on the money, that's at least a three or
- 2:13:38Speaker 1: four yard game for Utah.
- 2:13:39Speaker 8: And probably more. And really he just gets a little
- 2:13:41Speaker 8: nervous here. He doesn't have to.
- 2:13:43Speaker 1: He didn't step into it either. He threw a flat
- 2:13:44Speaker 1: foot in and just got his feet all messed up there.
- 2:13:49Speaker 1: Utah now faces a third down and nine. They've only
- 2:13:53Speaker 1: had about forty five seconds go off the clock. Ty
- 2:13:57Speaker 1: Jordan stays in the game. Utes are two out of
- 2:13:58Speaker 1: nine on two out of eight third down today list
- 2:14:02Speaker 1: the pass here comes pressure, throws it up the sidelines,
- 2:14:05Speaker 1: got Jordan at the fifty tie, breaks the tackle and
- 2:14:08Speaker 1: down to the Washington State forty two yard line. A
- 2:14:10Speaker 1: little wheel round out of the backfield and Ty Jordan
- 2:14:13Speaker 1: with a big grab at a Utah first down.
- 2:14:15Speaker 8: Yeah, so what you have man coverage here? And then
- 2:14:17Speaker 8: no one he got an end trying to cover Ty
- 2:14:21Speaker 8: Jordan and a lot of times people don't think the
- 2:14:23Speaker 8: back's gonna go down the field. Great job by Drew
- 2:14:26Speaker 8: Lisk again getting the ball out on time and in
- 2:14:29Speaker 8: a location.
- 2:14:29Speaker 1: That twenty seven yards first down hand off Ty Jordan
- 2:14:33Speaker 1: to the edge and tripped up after a one yard gain. Oh,
- 2:14:36Speaker 1: if he steps out of that tackle, he's still running.
- 2:14:39Speaker 1: But how about the wheel rap. Brennan Jackson was the
- 2:14:40Speaker 1: guy that had to try to cover him out of
- 2:14:42Speaker 1: the backfield. And that's another skill set Ty Jordan has
- 2:14:45Speaker 1: which is unique for a freshman. It really is.
- 2:14:47Speaker 8: And you you just don't see these running backs having
- 2:14:49Speaker 8: a willingness or going down the field like that. A
- 2:14:52Speaker 8: lot of backs just don't do it. A great call,
- 2:14:54Speaker 8: great read making, a big play.
- 2:14:57Speaker 1: On that third down. Second down and nine now for
- 2:14:59Speaker 1: the Washington State forty one yard line. Mackay Bernard of
- 2:15:02Speaker 1: the ballgame. Now, two tight ends, two wide receivers, play
- 2:15:05Speaker 1: action passed for list, lots of time, Drew Fires caught
- 2:15:09Speaker 1: and dropped. Oh, I thought for a minute John Woods
- 2:15:12Speaker 1: was gonna pick that off instead. Brian Thompson had it
- 2:15:15Speaker 1: hit him in the hands and he couldn't hold on.
- 2:15:17Speaker 1: Third down and nine coming up.
- 2:15:19Speaker 8: Yeah, Andrew kind of missed this read here because it's
- 2:15:21Speaker 8: the first guy going across the field. Nobody there's nobody
- 2:15:24Speaker 8: over here, and he just missed the reading. And you
- 2:15:27Speaker 8: have no underneath coverage there, and it's hard to work
- 2:15:30Speaker 8: it around a linebacker.
- 2:15:32Speaker 1: So third down and nine, you're talking verded a moment
- 2:15:35Speaker 1: ago this time when they've wanted Washington State forty one
- 2:15:37Speaker 1: yard line Devon Vley to the right left hand side
- 2:15:41Speaker 1: and a cluster of three receivers to the left hand side.
- 2:15:44Speaker 1: Ty Jordan back of the ball game, Washington State showing bliss.
- 2:15:48Speaker 1: Now they back out of it. List with time, rolls
- 2:15:51Speaker 1: to his right, looks down the field, throws down the field.
- 2:15:54Speaker 1: It's caught by Keithy Is he in bounds? They'll say no,
- 2:15:58Speaker 1: he was out of bounds. It was inside the thirty
- 2:16:02Speaker 1: five of the thirty three yard line. Keithy came down
- 2:16:06Speaker 1: with the ball, they say out of bounds, and we
- 2:16:09Speaker 1: may have to review this.
- 2:16:10Speaker 2: Tow tap. Oh, I think he caught it. I think
- 2:16:13Speaker 2: he got a tow down.
- 2:16:14Speaker 8: Scott, Yeah, it's it's just gonna be really, it's hard
- 2:16:17Speaker 8: to see if he if his if his toe was in.
- 2:16:21Speaker 1: They're gonna review this play. We'll look at the replay
- 2:16:24Speaker 1: here on the television set. Good job by list buying time,
- 2:16:28Speaker 1: firing down the field, and Keithy it looked like he
- 2:16:31Speaker 1: got a tow down on the replay we saw in
- 2:16:33Speaker 1: the jumbo tron. I didn't think in real time he did,
- 2:16:36Speaker 1: but the look of the jumbo tron made it look
- 2:16:38Speaker 1: like he got a tow down. And there's another look
- 2:16:44Speaker 1: at the play on the jumbo tron. Oh yeah, he's
- 2:16:47Speaker 1: in tow down right there. Oh yeah, tow down that's
- 2:16:51Speaker 1: gonna be. That's not gonna be enough for a first
- 2:16:53Speaker 1: down though, Scott. Yeah.
- 2:16:55Speaker 8: But what it does is it's fourth and short. Yeah,
- 2:16:57Speaker 8: and it s puts the ball on at thirty two
- 2:17:00Speaker 8: yard line.
- 2:17:00Speaker 1: If it's a thirty two that's close, but it's really
- 2:17:04Speaker 1: it's gonna be about a yard shy of first down yardage.
- 2:17:06Speaker 1: And now Kyle Whittingham will probably end up going for
- 2:17:09Speaker 1: it here. Yeah, towed down by Brian Keithy. A heck
- 2:17:13Speaker 1: of a catch in a terrific throw by lisc Yeah.
- 2:17:19Speaker 8: Well, you you know, you see that real time and
- 2:17:21Speaker 8: you're like, oh.
- 2:17:24Speaker 1: No, what eight?
- 2:17:25Speaker 8: But then but then when you can slow it down
- 2:17:27Speaker 8: like that and say yeah and that, that's one of
- 2:17:32Speaker 8: those nice times of like instant replay, you know back
- 2:17:36Speaker 8: in the day when you just didn't have it at
- 2:17:38Speaker 8: all and you're just like, it's just it's just a
- 2:17:40Speaker 8: judgment call at full speed.
- 2:17:41Speaker 2: Here's Mark Gutty, our referee, with the call after the review.
- 2:17:44Speaker 1: I after review, the receiver had his.
- 2:17:46Speaker 9: Left foot down in bounds. It's a catch at the
- 2:17:48Speaker 9: thirty three yard line. First down at the thirty three
- 2:17:52Speaker 9: yard line. No, I think it's gonna be fourth down
- 2:17:55Speaker 9: and bungled on there, sports fan. If he marks it
- 2:17:58Speaker 9: at the thirty three, that's gonna be a yard shy.
- 2:18:01Speaker 9: The mark to make is the thirty two yard line. Yeah,
- 2:18:04Speaker 9: it's fourth down in one here for Utah, and this
- 2:18:08Speaker 9: has been a bugaboo down for the youth Scott. They've
- 2:18:10Speaker 9: not been able to get short yardage at all this year.
- 2:18:12Speaker 8: Yeah, in Utah is just so so good at momentum,
- 2:18:15Speaker 8: you know, and they've got all the momentum right now.
- 2:18:17Speaker 8: They just need to sustain this drive.
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: On this play, they need about a half yard from
- 2:18:22Speaker 1: where the ball spotted right now. Ty Jordan's the tailback.
- 2:18:26Speaker 1: Lisk is gonna go under center. Two tight ends, make
- 2:18:31Speaker 1: it three tight ends in the ball game for Utah. Nope,
- 2:18:34Speaker 1: two tight ends, two wide receivers. Utah has not been
- 2:18:39Speaker 1: able to convert these downs. Weptworth down and a yard
- 2:18:43Speaker 1: Lisk under center. Drew gets a little movement up front.
- 2:18:47Speaker 1: Now he's gonna change the play, turning a gift. Ti
- 2:18:52Speaker 1: Jordan tie bounces to the outside thirty twenty five to
- 2:18:54Speaker 1: twenty up the sideline, fifty ten five touchdown.
- 2:18:59Speaker 4: Ty Jordan.
- 2:19:01Speaker 1: Thirty three yards in the Utah touchdown on fourth and short.
- 2:19:06Speaker 1: He tiptoes up the sideline head into the end zone
- 2:19:10Speaker 1: and we're a pat away from a tie game here
- 2:19:13Speaker 1: at rece Ecle Stadium.
- 2:19:15Speaker 8: Yeah, what has been impressive about this football team today?
- 2:19:18Speaker 9: Is.
- 2:19:18Speaker 8: They've done a tremendous job blocking. I mean everybody up
- 2:19:21Speaker 8: front there does a great job. The tight ends, the
- 2:19:24Speaker 8: running back, the wide receiver comes down the field, Solomon
- 2:19:27Speaker 8: Enis and really creates that edge right there, just seals
- 2:19:31Speaker 8: it all off and tied Jordan to the races with
- 2:19:33Speaker 8: a very I mean that's this tight little area for
- 2:19:36Speaker 8: running back to run. Just great balance and speed to
- 2:19:39Speaker 8: get to that inside. This guy is special. Wow, he
- 2:19:42Speaker 8: is so good.
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: Sixteen carries one hundred and thirty five yards, backing up
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: his last two rushing attempts, three straight one hundred yard games.
- 2:19:51Speaker 8: Now for Ty Jordan and Utah did a nice job
- 2:19:53Speaker 8: of being patient and not getting away from their running game,
- 2:19:56Speaker 8: and they're right back in this football game.
- 2:19:58Speaker 1: Pat By Redding ties us up with twelve oh one
- 2:20:00Speaker 1: to play. What resilience, what leadership? Here by Drew Lisk,
- 2:20:06Speaker 1: here's the pat. It's up and it is good. And
- 2:20:10Speaker 1: after the Pepsi touchdown by Ty Jordan, we are tied
- 2:20:13Speaker 1: at twenty eight twenty one unanswered by Utah.
- 2:20:15Speaker 2: Twenty eight apiece.
- 2:20:16Speaker 1: Back to Rice Ecles after this from Learfield, I amc
- 2:20:19Speaker 1: College twelve oh one to play here at Rice Cycles
- 2:20:30Speaker 1: Stadium twenty one unanswered from Utah out of the locker room,
- 2:20:33Speaker 1: and we're tied at twenty eight. Smiths proud sponsor of
- 2:20:36Speaker 1: Utah Athletics. Low prices market fresh. How about that scoring drive,
- 2:20:40Speaker 1: Scott seven plays seventy yards two fifteen and on that drive,
- 2:20:44Speaker 1: sixty two of the seventy yards belonged to Ty Jordan.
- 2:20:47Speaker 8: Well, and what was great about it too is the
- 2:20:49Speaker 8: third down and long, two of them, one to Ty
- 2:20:53Speaker 8: Jordan that gets the first down, and then the second
- 2:20:55Speaker 8: one to brand Keithy and just an unbelievable catch, unbelievable throw,
- 2:21:00Speaker 8: and then they get the conversion on fourth down. But
- 2:21:03Speaker 8: third and long is not easy to convert a lot
- 2:21:06Speaker 8: of times. And you look, you got a great playmaker
- 2:21:09Speaker 8: and Ty Jordan, you got a great playmaker and Brant Keathy.
- 2:21:12Speaker 8: And when you have options like that, it gives you
- 2:21:14Speaker 8: a chance. It really doesn't. And Drew Drew Lisk has
- 2:21:18Speaker 8: really really played tough here in this second half under
- 2:21:22Speaker 8: really really tough circumstances. The guy hasn't hardly played in college.
- 2:21:26Speaker 1: Holks Ebert, if you're just joining us, Jake Bentley started
- 2:21:29Speaker 1: this game. Jake Bentley got benched after throwing an interception
- 2:21:33Speaker 1: in the latter stages of the first half. Since then,
- 2:21:35Speaker 1: Drew Lisk has come on. He's twelve of nineteen for
- 2:21:38Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy five yards in the ballgame. And
- 2:21:41Speaker 1: it's been his poise, his calm and his leadership to
- 2:21:44Speaker 1: go along with the playmaking ability of guys like Ty
- 2:21:47Speaker 1: Jordan and Brian Thompson that have got Utah back in
- 2:21:49Speaker 1: this ballgames. Guy, here's a high kick that Travelle Harris
- 2:21:53Speaker 1: can bring out if he wants to, and he wants them,
- 2:21:55Speaker 1: you'll let it go over his head and seven yards
- 2:21:58Speaker 1: deeper in touchback. And Washington State looking a little shell
- 2:22:01Speaker 1: shock right now. They're owed for here in the second
- 2:22:04Speaker 1: half at halftime, Washington I think Scott here in the
- 2:22:08Speaker 1: second half, Washington State only has in the neighborhood of
- 2:22:11Speaker 1: twenty yards of total offense.
- 2:22:13Speaker 8: Yeah, and they really took their foot off the gas pedal.
- 2:22:17Speaker 8: And it's hard when you slow everything down and then
- 2:22:19Speaker 8: just try to regenerate that momentum and that speed. But
- 2:22:24Speaker 8: Utah has also played better and they've played more sound
- 2:22:27Speaker 8: defensively and with a lot more energy.
- 2:22:29Speaker 1: And Utah pressing up a little bit more on the
- 2:22:31Speaker 1: wide receivers. Here at the second at first and ten,
- 2:22:33Speaker 1: Washington State from their own twenty five yard line, DeLaura
- 2:22:36Speaker 1: into shotgun with Mack Sporgi play action. No, that's Cam
- 2:22:41Speaker 1: and Cooper, the former Lee Highs High School product in
- 2:22:45Speaker 1: the ballgame for the first time. I noticed the lefty
- 2:22:48Speaker 1: and he skips his first pass in traffic. That brings
- 2:22:51Speaker 1: up second down and ten. So Cam and Cooper, who's
- 2:22:55Speaker 1: getting a chance to play here, saw a little bit
- 2:22:57Speaker 1: of action at the end of their blowout lost to
- 2:22:59Speaker 1: us with Jayden DeLaura on the bench. Are you surprised,
- 2:23:02Speaker 1: Scott Well.
- 2:23:03Speaker 8: I wonder if he's hurt, because if you remember the
- 2:23:05Speaker 8: last play with Vonte Davis, he kind of tackled him
- 2:23:08Speaker 8: in an odd location and the Laura is on the
- 2:23:11Speaker 8: sideline with a towel on his head.
- 2:23:13Speaker 1: Here we go Cam and Cooper on second and ten
- 2:23:15Speaker 1: with BORGI with him. He's gonna throw again, He's gonna
- 2:23:18Speaker 1: fire to the outside. Caught a nine yard game Utah
- 2:23:21Speaker 1: way off in coverage that time. I mean JT.
- 2:23:24Speaker 2: Brodt was fifteen yards off and that was an easy
- 2:23:27Speaker 2: pitch and catch.
- 2:23:27Speaker 1: Third down at one coming up.
- 2:23:29Speaker 8: Yeah, I just say I've said this and I just
- 2:23:31Speaker 8: really believe this challenging a challenge is a quarterback. It's
- 2:23:34Speaker 8: hardly played.
- 2:23:36Speaker 1: I mean, he advertised where he was gonna throw that
- 2:23:38Speaker 1: ball by the way third down and one Cook's oh
- 2:23:42Speaker 1: for three. Here in the second half on third down,
- 2:23:44Speaker 1: Borgie the back of the backfield, Utah crowd in the
- 2:23:47Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, no safety deep right now for Utah
- 2:23:51Speaker 1: Cam and Cooper to throw fires in the slot. It's caught.
- 2:23:54Speaker 2: Look out yardage forty.
- 2:23:56Speaker 1: Five fifty still on his feet and down right midfield
- 2:24:01Speaker 1: goes Reynard Bell. For a minute, that looked like he
- 2:24:04Speaker 1: was gonna break into the open field. That'll be a
- 2:24:06Speaker 1: sixteen yard game in a first down for Cam and Cooper,
- 2:24:08Speaker 1: who looks good right now stepping in for the first
- 2:24:11Speaker 1: time today.
- 2:24:12Speaker 8: Yeah, and still I believe it's Clark Phillips. He's kind
- 2:24:15Speaker 8: of just go or no, it's it's yeah, it's Clark Phillips. Yeah,
- 2:24:19Speaker 8: he's he just has it. Malone Montel, Yeah, he's just
- 2:24:22Speaker 8: he can't hesitate. You got to just go and tackle
- 2:24:25Speaker 8: that guy before he ever get started for the Utah.
- 2:24:28Speaker 8: Forty nine is where they market Cam and Cooper. The
- 2:24:30Speaker 8: Lee High Product, Utah showing blitz now on Cam and Cooper.
- 2:24:34Speaker 8: Will they come, Yes, they do. They handed to Borgie. No,
- 2:24:37Speaker 8: Cooper keeps it.
- 2:24:37Speaker 1: That was a bad read by Cooper and he'll lose
- 2:24:39Speaker 1: a yard maybe two back to the Wazoo forty nine
- 2:24:42Speaker 1: yard line. He chose to keep that BORGI would have
- 2:24:46Speaker 1: run right around the edge and up the sideline. Sit down,
- 2:24:50Speaker 1: and we'll call it eleven coming up here for Cam
- 2:24:52Speaker 1: and Cooper. Another lefty from Utah County here at rece
- 2:24:56Speaker 1: Ecle Stadium. When was the last time we had that?
- 2:24:59Speaker 1: A long time? Oh?
- 2:25:00Speaker 2: A couple of local boys.
- 2:25:02Speaker 1: Playing quarterback, now Jordan Highs Drew Lisk and now Lehigh
- 2:25:06Speaker 1: High Schools. Cam and Cooper clock running at ten to
- 2:25:11Speaker 1: ten to play the ballgame tied at twenty eight from
- 2:25:14Speaker 1: the Wazoo forty nine yard line. Four wide set here,
- 2:25:18Speaker 1: Cam and Cooper barks out, signals, drops, the pass, surveys
- 2:25:21Speaker 1: the field, fires, caught and through the hands incomplete. He
- 2:25:25Speaker 1: had travelle Harris. It wasn't gonna be a big game.
- 2:25:29Speaker 1: You know who that comforts on that Blake Keithy Brant's
- 2:25:33Speaker 1: brud twin brother who's playing defensive end dropped off in
- 2:25:36Speaker 1: the coverage that time and forced the incompletion.
- 2:25:38Speaker 2: Third down along coming up.
- 2:25:40Speaker 8: Yeah, this Keithy clan. They they're versatile, they can rush,
- 2:25:44Speaker 8: they could drop in coverage. Got a got a brother
- 2:25:48Speaker 8: that can run fly sweeps. I mean this is talent.
- 2:25:51Speaker 1: Here we go third down and eleven here for Washington
- 2:25:53Speaker 1: State the yard line to make the Utah thirty nine.
- 2:25:56Speaker 1: Cooper surveys the defense. Utah is gonna rush for this time.
- 2:26:00Speaker 1: Here they come Cam and Cooper pressure and his faseball
- 2:26:02Speaker 1: bat it down. Devin Kafusi for the second time this
- 2:26:06Speaker 1: year not sit down at the line of scrimmage, and
- 2:26:09Speaker 1: the Utah defense for a fourth time here in the
- 2:26:12Speaker 1: second half, gets the Washington State offense off the field.
- 2:26:15Speaker 8: Yeah, and really it's probably a good thing that that
- 2:26:17Speaker 8: was bad at because there were two defenders right around
- 2:26:20Speaker 8: this wide receiver right.
- 2:26:22Speaker 1: Of it a pick six. So Britain Covey stands at
- 2:26:26Speaker 1: his own ten Oscar Gergisovich, who's plunted. Well, today we'll
- 2:26:30Speaker 1: get this kick away. It's an end over end kick.
- 2:26:32Speaker 1: Britain's gonna come up and let it hit and it
- 2:26:35Speaker 1: checks back up takes a Utah role to about the
- 2:26:37Speaker 1: eleven yard line, and that's where Utah will begin with
- 2:26:41Speaker 1: a chance to take the lead ninety four to play
- 2:26:45Speaker 1: in the ball game a week back. It's Utah twenty
- 2:26:48Speaker 1: eight in Washington State twenty eight from the University of
- 2:26:52Speaker 1: Utah Health Broadcast Booth here in Salt Lake City at
- 2:26:54Speaker 1: RISEQL Stadium in Tutah football from Learfield. I amg college. Hey,
- 2:27:04Speaker 1: big thank you to Jersey Mikes. They fed us up
- 2:27:06Speaker 1: here at the press box today. They're fantastic Russ and
- 2:27:10Speaker 1: John and all the owners and operators of the Jersey
- 2:27:12Speaker 1: Mikes here in the state of Utah, fourteen locations to
- 2:27:15Speaker 1: serve you. They are a sub above at Jersey Mikes.
- 2:27:18Speaker 1: Do you have the ham or the turkey? I had turkey.
- 2:27:21Speaker 1: I had turkey too, Robles, would you have the ham?
- 2:27:23Speaker 1: Had the ham in provolone? I don't know what Kunkle had.
- 2:27:26Speaker 1: Kunkle probably had three sandwhich is while we're I've looking
- 2:27:29Speaker 1: over there that we had about seven boxes in here.
- 2:27:31Speaker 1: Now there's one.
- 2:27:32Speaker 8: Kunk has this figure. He's got to Keith, you gotta keep.
- 2:27:34Speaker 1: That girlish, that girlish German figure of his. Klaus Kunkel,
- 2:27:38Speaker 1: our engineer good to be with you guys today. I
- 2:27:41Speaker 1: was just telling Scott at the break right now, this
- 2:27:43Speaker 1: game reminds me a lot of the BYU Utah game
- 2:27:47Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, which was played in late November.
- 2:27:50Speaker 2: Utah couldn't do anything right in.
- 2:27:51Speaker 1: The first half, and a backup quarterback led them to
- 2:27:54Speaker 1: a victory that day, a kid named Jason Shelley.
- 2:27:57Speaker 2: Today, it's true, Lisk, We'll see what happens.
- 2:28:00Speaker 1: It's sill a lot of work to do, though, ninety
- 2:28:01Speaker 1: four to play at an eighty nine yard field. Here
- 2:28:04Speaker 1: for Utah, two tight ends, two wide receivers. Here comes
- 2:28:07Speaker 1: Covey across the formation, turning, it.
- 2:28:09Speaker 2: Gives to Ty Jordan. Jordan squirts through a hole.
- 2:28:12Speaker 1: And hits down to the sixteen yard line for a
- 2:28:14Speaker 1: game of five at seventeen carries in one hundred and
- 2:28:17Speaker 1: forty nine yards. It's funny, Scott. With a guy like
- 2:28:19Speaker 1: Ty Jordan, every play could be that big play. When
- 2:28:23Speaker 1: you see him crack through the hole, you just hold
- 2:28:25Speaker 1: your breath for a minute because it might be a
- 2:28:27Speaker 1: big play.
- 2:28:27Speaker 8: Well, and that's a small hole. I mean, there's not
- 2:28:29Speaker 8: much of a hole there, and he's got that low
- 2:28:32Speaker 8: centered tough runner makes a nice play.
- 2:28:34Speaker 1: Oh they said his knee was down at the fourteen,
- 2:28:36Speaker 1: So second down in seven that spot. List stands in
- 2:28:39Speaker 1: the gun with a five wide receiver. Look this time,
- 2:28:43Speaker 1: Washington State, how many would they run? They rushed just four?
- 2:28:46Speaker 1: List with time fires. Oh, almost intercepted. That was the
- 2:28:50Speaker 1: worst throw of the day by Drew Lisk and he
- 2:28:52Speaker 1: almost got penalized. He was looking for Covey. There were
- 2:28:54Speaker 1: two defenders there. In fact, it hit the Wazoo man
- 2:28:57Speaker 1: in the hands.
- 2:28:58Speaker 8: Yeah, And he's talking to Britain Covey because he thinks
- 2:29:01Speaker 8: Covey's gonna break in. And Covey turns and just stops,
- 2:29:05Speaker 8: and he's like, it's man to man. When you have man,
- 2:29:07Speaker 8: you run away and when you have zone you sit down.
- 2:29:10Speaker 8: And just miscommunication because if Covey moves, he'll hit him.
- 2:29:15Speaker 8: He mayke it hit when he moves, but at least
- 2:29:17Speaker 8: he can catch the ball.
- 2:29:18Speaker 1: Utah three out of ten on a third down. Mcgui
- 2:29:21Speaker 1: Bernard at the ball game with a four wide. Look
- 2:29:23Speaker 1: here Washington State showing blitz. Now they back off. Lizz
- 2:29:27Speaker 1: looking throws over the bill. Solomon Edis has it close
- 2:29:29Speaker 1: to first down yard. He is he got it.
- 2:29:31Speaker 2: He needed the twenty one He got out to the
- 2:29:33Speaker 2: twenty four yard line.
- 2:29:34Speaker 1: Great job by Solo and great second effort to pick
- 2:29:37Speaker 1: up that first down.
- 2:29:38Speaker 2: Utah keeps the drive alive.
- 2:29:40Speaker 8: Yeah and again, you know, I keep preaching this over
- 2:29:43Speaker 8: and over. Great play by Solomon, great location on the throw,
- 2:29:46Speaker 8: getting what you have to do. Solomon ed is another guy.
- 2:29:49Speaker 8: It's just got a lot of talent that Utah needs
- 2:29:51Speaker 8: to find ways to get involved.
- 2:29:53Speaker 1: Clock running at eight thirty five to play in the
- 2:29:55Speaker 1: ball game tied at twenty eight four. Wide look ty
- 2:29:59Speaker 1: Jordan's to the backfield with Drew list a motion. Jordan
- 2:30:03Speaker 1: out of the backfield down this grows the flanker screen
- 2:30:05Speaker 1: inside Britain Covey thirty thirty thirty yard line, breaks to
- 2:30:09Speaker 1: the outside. Covey stays on his feet thirty five forty
- 2:30:12Speaker 1: and down to the forty two yard line. Goes Britain
- 2:30:14Speaker 1: Covey for a gain of sixteen yards, making eighteen yards.
- 2:30:18Speaker 2: Of the first down. I thought he got face massed
- 2:30:20Speaker 2: on the play too.
- 2:30:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I think a lot of people on the Utah
- 2:30:22Speaker 1: sideline did.
- 2:30:23Speaker 8: But really nice, you kind of think they're gonna go
- 2:30:25Speaker 8: to Jordan Wilmore over there, and they don't.
- 2:30:28Speaker 1: And then he did get get it a good call.
- 2:30:31Speaker 8: Most people he's saying, get north and south, not Britton Covey,
- 2:30:34Speaker 8: but not Britain Covey. He you know, give okay, give
- 2:30:36Speaker 8: him their chance. Okay, lot, okay, good.
- 2:30:38Speaker 1: Good Covey now at career high one hundred and thirty
- 2:30:41Speaker 1: four yards. His prior career high was one hundred and
- 2:30:43Speaker 1: twenty nine. He did that two different times from their
- 2:30:47Speaker 1: own forty three yard line first and ten for Utah
- 2:30:50Speaker 1: motion man Covey play action role List steps away from
- 2:30:54Speaker 1: the pressure, throws it downfield and away over the head
- 2:30:57Speaker 1: of Britain Covey and incomplete be second down in ten.
- 2:31:01Speaker 1: Live to play another day.
- 2:31:02Speaker 8: And great, yep, great play right there, great decision. Nobody's open,
- 2:31:05Speaker 8: everybody's well covered. Drew List makes that very decisive, quick decision,
- 2:31:10Speaker 8: and we still have the football.
- 2:31:12Speaker 1: Second down in ten now from the forty three of
- 2:31:15Speaker 1: Utah clock stop now at seven forty three to play
- 2:31:19Speaker 1: in the ballgame. Utah twenty eight Washington State twenty eight
- 2:31:25Speaker 1: wide receivers splitting out wide to the right hand side.
- 2:31:27Speaker 1: Here three of them tie Jordan in the backfield for Utah.
- 2:31:31Speaker 1: They handed the tie. He tries to bounce it, he
- 2:31:33Speaker 1: gets tripped up, stays on his feet, gets back to
- 2:31:35Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, and that's it. Little have been
- 2:31:37Speaker 1: a two yard loss, but he kept his balance and
- 2:31:39Speaker 1: that'll bring up third down and ten then.
- 2:31:42Speaker 8: Yeah, and someone just to the inside gets beat there.
- 2:31:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's a fact.
- 2:31:45Speaker 8: Yeah, just just penetration kills zone read plays.
- 2:31:52Speaker 1: So third down and ten line to make the forty
- 2:31:56Speaker 1: seven of Washington State four wide receivers and tied Jordan
- 2:32:01Speaker 1: to the ballgame. Washington State rushes just four lots of time,
- 2:32:05Speaker 1: the list fires out. So I threw the hands and incomplete.
- 2:32:08Speaker 1: Oh goodness, he had to Von Vley might have been
- 2:32:12Speaker 1: short of first down yardage, but Vleay was wide opened
- 2:32:15Speaker 1: and about the Washington State forty nine yard line.
- 2:32:18Speaker 2: That'll bring out the punt team now.
- 2:32:20Speaker 8: Yeah, and Vyley was just trying to run before he
- 2:32:22Speaker 8: had the ball here, you know, he might have he
- 2:32:26Speaker 8: might have gotten a first down, but Samson Nakuo was
- 2:32:30Speaker 8: wide open on a corner route.
- 2:32:33Speaker 1: Drew missed that one. Well, he had a wide open
- 2:32:35Speaker 1: man that just dropped the ball on him. Ben Lennon
- 2:32:37Speaker 1: out to punt Trevelle Harris fact to receive it at
- 2:32:40Speaker 1: his own fifteen kick away by Lennon's goodwin by Ben
- 2:32:44Speaker 1: high and hanging kick. Harris is gonna let it hit it,
- 2:32:47Speaker 1: checks up, it goes sideways and killed it about the
- 2:32:50Speaker 1: six yard line. Good coverage by Aaron Lowe on the play.
- 2:32:55Speaker 1: That might have been Ben's best kick of the year
- 2:32:57Speaker 1: right there, I'd have been the best kick of his
- 2:32:58Speaker 1: two year career. Here in Utah, I'm out on the field.
- 2:33:00Speaker 1: Six to fifty six to play for the Utah defense.
- 2:33:03Speaker 1: Get Wazoo off the field again. Twenty eight apiece here
- 2:33:06Speaker 1: the fourth quarter from rice EQL Stadium. It's Utah football
- 2:33:09Speaker 1: from Learfield IMG College. Six fifty six to play here
- 2:33:17Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, tied to twenty eight. U taught
- 2:33:20Speaker 1: football to the Indian brought by University of Utah Healthy,
- 2:33:22Speaker 1: official healthcare provider for the Utes. And you there's only
- 2:33:26Speaker 1: one used to be treated that way. Visiting you off
- 2:33:27Speaker 1: you health dot org slash uots. I'm Bill Riley and
- 2:33:30Speaker 1: that guy over there Scott Mitchell and Utah. I'm just
- 2:33:33Speaker 1: telling you it's a weird game. Football and sports in
- 2:33:36Speaker 1: general momentum is weird. Utah could do nothing right in
- 2:33:41Speaker 1: the first half. They're down twenty eight to seven at halftime.
- 2:33:44Speaker 1: They don't look good on the first drive of the
- 2:33:46Speaker 1: second half. They go three and out. Then all of
- 2:33:48Speaker 1: a sudden, the defense gets a couple of stops. Drew
- 2:33:51Speaker 1: Lisk settles in, Ty Jordan makes some plays and here
- 2:33:54Speaker 1: we are Scott with just under seven to play, tied
- 2:33:56Speaker 1: to twenty eight.
- 2:33:58Speaker 8: Yeah, it's really remarkable that Utah z the' been in
- 2:34:00Speaker 8: this game, you know. To finish this out, though, Utah
- 2:34:02Speaker 8: offensively has got to get more out of first down,
- 2:34:05Speaker 8: just kind of been stopped.
- 2:34:06Speaker 1: A little bit.
- 2:34:06Speaker 8: If they if they want to close this game out,
- 2:34:08Speaker 8: of course. I challenged this Cam Cooper and just shading
- 2:34:12Speaker 8: the Laura's back and.
- 2:34:13Speaker 1: He's back of the ball game from his own six
- 2:34:15Speaker 1: yard line first down in ten, Max Borgy, keep an
- 2:34:18Speaker 1: eye on Borgie. They've not run the ball much here
- 2:34:20Speaker 1: with Max Borgie, and he's had a good day so far.
- 2:34:24Speaker 1: Utah was six near the line of scrimmage on burst
- 2:34:26Speaker 1: in ten as the Laura takes the stamp and gives
- 2:34:29Speaker 1: it to Borgy straight ahead into the hole, first down
- 2:34:32Speaker 1: yardage and more out to the twenty yard line, balls
- 2:34:34Speaker 1: out Washington State.
- 2:34:36Speaker 2: Hans it, No, you toss got it?
- 2:34:38Speaker 1: You toss got it? Nate Ritchie Or is that Clark Phillips.
- 2:34:41Speaker 1: It's Clark Phillips to the fifteenth down to the fourteen
- 2:34:43Speaker 1: yard line Forrgy, coughed it up. Phillips scooped it up
- 2:34:47Speaker 1: and you toss got the football back. Want to play
- 2:34:50Speaker 1: by the Utahie Fens.
- 2:34:54Speaker 8: I didn't see it either.
- 2:34:56Speaker 4: I fished it.
- 2:34:56Speaker 1: I thought Borgy was down and won't watch it on
- 2:35:00Speaker 1: the big board. Somebody put their helmet right on it.
- 2:35:02Speaker 1: They did want to play. We'll check on that. Davis.
- 2:35:08Speaker 1: It was Fonte Davis put his helmet right on the football,
- 2:35:12Speaker 1: forced it out, Clark Phillips scooped it up and returned
- 2:35:15Speaker 1: it to the Bega thirteen yard line of Washington State.
- 2:35:20Speaker 8: You called it, Bill get a defensive turnover. You're clearly
- 2:35:22Speaker 8: it was knocked.
- 2:35:23Speaker 2: Out Fonte Davis with a big play on defense.
- 2:35:26Speaker 1: Now you talking. They cash it in for the Washington
- 2:35:29Speaker 1: State thirteen yard line. First in ten Utah Kurt Lisk
- 2:35:34Speaker 1: backpedals to pass. You know, he surveys, throws ends up.
- 2:35:38Speaker 1: Brian Thompson looked like he was hell coming out of
- 2:35:42Speaker 1: his break. It looked like he was held Brian Thompson.
- 2:35:44Speaker 1: It goes in complete.
- 2:35:47Speaker 8: Oh, Drew List just a little too early right here.
- 2:35:50Speaker 8: Just wait wait now, don't wait wait.
- 2:35:53Speaker 1: Oh he had him wide open it too. I still
- 2:35:56Speaker 1: I'd like to see another angle on that replay because
- 2:35:59Speaker 1: it looked like he was hell coming out of his
- 2:36:00Speaker 1: break either way. Second down in Tampa at the Washington
- 2:36:05Speaker 1: State thirteen yard line, List goes under center. This time
- 2:36:09Speaker 1: Ty Jordan the back of the back field, turning to
- 2:36:11Speaker 1: give to Todd running room ahead, cuts it inside on
- 2:36:14Speaker 1: his feet, five tiptoes, Hi steps into the end zone. Touchdown,
- 2:36:20Speaker 1: Hi Jordan. What a run. What a run by Ty Jordan,
- 2:36:27Speaker 1: breaking two tackles, spinning out of another, and then tiptoeing
- 2:36:31Speaker 1: into the end zone for another Utah touchdown. It's like
- 2:36:35Speaker 1: he's got silicone on him. I mean, it's just such
- 2:36:37Speaker 1: a tight hole there.
- 2:36:38Speaker 8: Great cutback makes a guy miss and spins Pirowetz.
- 2:36:41Speaker 1: Gets into the end zone. Nice play.
- 2:36:44Speaker 8: Tough he's a tough runner. I'm telling you he's tough inside.
- 2:36:47Speaker 8: He's tough outside.
- 2:36:50Speaker 1: Wow.
- 2:36:51Speaker 7: What a run.
- 2:36:52Speaker 1: Nineteen carries one hundred and fifty one yards and another touchdown.
- 2:36:56Speaker 1: The pat is good and Utah has scored unbelievably Scott
- 2:37:02Speaker 1: twenty eight unanswered points. They leaded thirty.
- 2:37:05Speaker 2: Five twenty eight.
- 2:37:07Speaker 1: With six twenty nine to play in the ball game.
- 2:37:10Speaker 8: Yeah, what's really nice is you pull this as a
- 2:37:14Speaker 8: tight ends, you know, tackle trap, and just a great
- 2:37:17Speaker 8: job up up front of just getting on these people
- 2:37:20Speaker 8: and giving him enough room to make make it through
- 2:37:22Speaker 8: there and and score the touchdown.
- 2:37:25Speaker 1: Time out on the field, will take it with him
- 2:37:27Speaker 1: back to rice Ecles after this from Deerfield AMG College.
- 2:37:41Speaker 2: Six twenty nine to play in the ball game.
- 2:37:44Speaker 1: What a finale today by both Drew list, but especially
- 2:37:47Speaker 1: by Ty Jordan. He's got twenty touches today, Scott one
- 2:37:51Speaker 1: hundred and seventy eight total yards every touchdowns, He's averaging
- 2:37:57Speaker 1: nine yards a touch today for the universe of Utah.
- 2:38:00Speaker 1: And how about the effort by the local product Drew
- 2:38:03Speaker 1: Lisk coming in off the bench. This is the most
- 2:38:06Speaker 1: time Drew has ever played. He's fourteen of twenty five,
- 2:38:09Speaker 1: one hundred and forty six yards in the ball game,
- 2:38:12Speaker 1: no interceptions. He's mates a big bros. And maybe more importantly,
- 2:38:16Speaker 1: how about the defense which gave up twenty eight first
- 2:38:19Speaker 1: half points. They gave up none here in the second half.
- 2:38:21Speaker 1: They forced the big turnover which I said would be great,
- 2:38:25Speaker 1: and they cash in right away. Yeah.
- 2:38:27Speaker 8: And the thing that just jumps out at me. The
- 2:38:29Speaker 8: more you get the ball in the hands of people
- 2:38:31Speaker 8: that are talented, their talent starts to shine through. You know,
- 2:38:35Speaker 8: they get more comfortable, they have an ability to make
- 2:38:39Speaker 8: great plays. I mean, that was just a phenomenal run
- 2:38:41Speaker 8: by Ty Jordan right there, and it's because he gets
- 2:38:45Speaker 8: the touches. And so you look at this offense and
- 2:38:48Speaker 8: you look at Bran Keathy and his evolution because he
- 2:38:50Speaker 8: gets touches. You look at brit Coveyan and there's more,
- 2:38:53Speaker 8: I mean, Solomon Nis and Brian Thompson. The more they
- 2:38:56Speaker 8: get involved and the more touches they get, the better
- 2:38:59Speaker 8: they're going again, and the more the more spectacular plays
- 2:39:02Speaker 8: you'll see with them.
- 2:39:03Speaker 1: Jordan Noyse has it teed up to kick off here
- 2:39:07Speaker 1: for the fourth time here in the second half. Six
- 2:39:10Speaker 1: po twenty nine to play. Trevelle Harris back deep, dangerous
- 2:39:13Speaker 1: return man for Wazoo, and he'll bring this one out
- 2:39:17Speaker 1: two yards deep to the five to the ten, bouncing
- 2:39:20Speaker 1: inside and outside to old Trevelle Harris has the age
- 2:39:23Speaker 1: thirty thirty five forty and out of bounds to forty three.
- 2:39:26Speaker 1: That's gonna be a late hit two add fifteen yards
- 2:39:29Speaker 1: on to it. A stupid play at the end of
- 2:39:31Speaker 1: the play by the University of Utah. We'll double check
- 2:39:34Speaker 1: the number on that. I think it was came away
- 2:39:36Speaker 1: lot two the linebacker or the safety, I should say so.
- 2:39:39Speaker 1: A good return becomes an even better return for Washington
- 2:39:42Speaker 1: State and they'll start in business in Utah territories to the.
- 2:39:45Speaker 9: Play, personal foul, late hit out of bounds kicking team
- 2:39:50Speaker 9: number thirteen, fifteen yard penalty.
- 2:39:53Speaker 2: It'll be a first down.
- 2:39:55Speaker 1: Just a silly play by Lattu after a good return
- 2:39:58Speaker 1: by Trevelle Harris. They've been waiting on it all day
- 2:40:00Speaker 1: and they got it. It was forty three yards. Tack
- 2:40:05Speaker 1: on another fifteen. They're gonna begin it deep in Utah territory.
- 2:40:09Speaker 1: First intent at the Utah I believe forty two yard line.
- 2:40:13Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's tough. I mean, guys trying to get
- 2:40:15Speaker 8: across the field and just to hold up. But the
- 2:40:18Speaker 8: kick has been short, and you just can't have those
- 2:40:21Speaker 8: short kicks first and ten for Jade de Laura.
- 2:40:25Speaker 1: Dion McIntosh, the tailback four wide receiver, looked for the
- 2:40:28Speaker 1: Utah forty two. Utah shifting up from a four man down,
- 2:40:31Speaker 1: look De Laura to pass, pressure off the edge, hit
- 2:40:34Speaker 1: as he rows the balls out, kut Foosy falls on it.
- 2:40:38Speaker 1: Hits Utah football.
- 2:40:42Speaker 3: Devin kuck Boosy came up with the loose ball and
- 2:40:45Speaker 3: that's Utah football.
- 2:40:48Speaker 1: The pressure off the edge get De Laura as he
- 2:40:51Speaker 1: was throwing. Hit. Back to back turnovers by the Cougars.
- 2:40:54Speaker 1: Give it back to Utah. The pressure off the edge
- 2:40:59Speaker 1: came from is that Mica to It was Tofua playing
- 2:41:04Speaker 1: defensive man, came off the ball, got free of his
- 2:41:08Speaker 1: man and hit DeLaura as he was throwing. The Utah
- 2:41:12Speaker 1: defense has been spectacular here in the second half, absolutely spectacular, and.
- 2:41:19Speaker 8: You have to wonder if they're not going to review
- 2:41:20Speaker 8: it just to see if his arm wasn't coming forward.
- 2:41:22Speaker 8: But great effort there by Mika.
- 2:41:24Speaker 1: Now the red hat downstairs, check with the instant replay
- 2:41:27Speaker 1: guys and they said clean play. So that's why Utah
- 2:41:30Speaker 1: will get it here first and ten at their own
- 2:41:33Speaker 1: forty four yard line. Can they deliver the knockout punch
- 2:41:36Speaker 1: on this drive, Mackay Bernard. Two wide receivers and two
- 2:41:40Speaker 1: tight ends. Do they take a shot? Hand off? My
- 2:41:45Speaker 1: sweet Britain Covey gets to the outside and he'll be
- 2:41:47Speaker 1: dropped way back behind the line of scrimmage, a three
- 2:41:51Speaker 1: almost four yard loss. Somebody out there whiffed on a block, Scott.
- 2:41:55Speaker 1: There was an offensive lineman out there who just whiffed
- 2:41:57Speaker 1: on that play.
- 2:41:57Speaker 8: There are a couple of whiffs there.
- 2:41:59Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 2:42:01Speaker 2: It was actually Cole Fathering Ham overran the play.
- 2:42:04Speaker 1: Cole Fatheringham, Brand Keithy keep better in those fly sweeps.
- 2:42:09Speaker 1: It's not good at blocking.
- 2:42:10Speaker 2: I think Britt Covey maybe be a better block or
- 2:42:12Speaker 2: the brand.
- 2:42:12Speaker 8: Kethy right, it's hard because it's it takes so long
- 2:42:16Speaker 8: to develop and it just it's hard to hold that
- 2:42:19Speaker 8: block for that long long time.
- 2:42:21Speaker 1: Ty Jordan checks back in again for Utah second down
- 2:42:24Speaker 1: in thirteen at their own forty one yard line, listing
- 2:42:29Speaker 1: the gun gives it to Ty Jordan, picks his way
- 2:42:32Speaker 1: through a hole and picks up three yards back to
- 2:42:35Speaker 1: the original.
- 2:42:35Speaker 2: Line of scrimmage. That'll bring up third down.
- 2:42:39Speaker 1: And Ty Jordan now with twenty carries on one hundred
- 2:42:41Speaker 1: and fifty four yards on the afternoon and a time
- 2:42:44Speaker 1: out taken here by Nick Rolovich. He doesn't want Utah
- 2:42:47Speaker 1: to bleed too much of this clock, so he uses
- 2:42:50Speaker 1: one of his three timeouts, which is an interesting call
- 2:42:52Speaker 1: with a third down and ten coming up. Yeah, I don't,
- 2:42:54Speaker 1: I don't know that I would. There's plenty of time
- 2:43:00Speaker 1: broadcast today being brought to you by our friends at
- 2:43:02Speaker 1: CR England. They've got an initiative to fight childhood hunger.
- 2:43:05Speaker 1: They're gonna feed one child in Utah for every single
- 2:43:09Speaker 1: yard the Utes game this year. Well, the Utes right
- 2:43:13Speaker 1: now have gained on the season nineteen hundred and forty
- 2:43:17Speaker 1: three yards nineteen hundred forty three yards, And we were
- 2:43:20Speaker 1: told by Zach England when we caught up with him
- 2:43:23Speaker 1: in the pregame show, because Scott Mitchell asked so nicely,
- 2:43:27Speaker 1: they're gonna double their number of children bets. So whatever
- 2:43:29Speaker 1: the Utes get on total yardage and finish up here today,
- 2:43:33Speaker 1: go times too. And that's the number of children that
- 2:43:36Speaker 1: see our England will feed here in the Utah.
- 2:43:38Speaker 8: Very generous of cur England as well, and kind of
- 2:43:42Speaker 8: had a feeling they'd probably do that.
- 2:43:47Speaker 1: Good for them.
- 2:43:48Speaker 2: So here we go big third down here five thirteen
- 2:43:51Speaker 2: to play.
- 2:43:52Speaker 1: Ty Jordan of the game and the four wide receivers
- 2:43:55Speaker 1: Drew lisk in the shotgun, Washington State showing blitz. Now
- 2:43:58Speaker 1: they back out of it, flankers running back screen. Ty
- 2:44:01Speaker 1: Jordan's got it in the open field. That dumped at
- 2:44:04Speaker 1: the fifty yard line after he picks up about six yards,
- 2:44:09Speaker 1: and that'll bring up fourth down to the punt team
- 2:44:11Speaker 1: coming out here for Utah. So that fly sweep on
- 2:44:14Speaker 1: the early down really hurt Utah on this drive. And
- 2:44:17Speaker 1: we jump under five minutes to play. Now Utah thirty
- 2:44:21Speaker 1: five Washington State twenty eight.
- 2:44:23Speaker 8: And that's a really nice play by Washington State because
- 2:44:28Speaker 8: you know Daniel lissam in in the open field and
- 2:44:31Speaker 8: he's been the leading tackler for Washington State. I like
- 2:44:34Speaker 8: that play. I like the design of it, giving you know,
- 2:44:37Speaker 8: Ty a chance to make a play in the open field.
- 2:44:39Speaker 1: Ben Lennon On to punt. Treville Harris stands at his
- 2:44:42Speaker 1: own ten high snap. Lennon gets the kick. Now, oh
- 2:44:44Speaker 1: he got it away. I think I've got blocked. It's
- 2:44:48Speaker 1: gonna hit it the ten check up inside the ten
- 2:44:50Speaker 1: roll to the three, and that's where Utah kills it.
- 2:44:53Speaker 1: But Ben Lennon is down and he got run into
- 2:44:55Speaker 1: and I don't think this is running.
- 2:44:57Speaker 9: Yes, roughing the kicker kicking team umber twelve fifteen yard
- 2:45:01Speaker 9: penalty from the previous spot, automatic first down.
- 2:45:04Speaker 1: I thought they had that kick block. Scott Joey Hobert
- 2:45:07Speaker 1: was the man who rough Ben Lennon, who's down. Hobert
- 2:45:10Speaker 1: is also down on the field right now. They absolutely
- 2:45:14Speaker 1: demolished Lennon. I don't know how they didn't get the ball.
- 2:45:16Speaker 1: I think he went over the ball.
- 2:45:19Speaker 8: See your aiming point needs to be two yards in
- 2:45:22Speaker 8: front of the ball, and he aimed for his leg
- 2:45:23Speaker 8: and actually got him on his thigh after he kicked
- 2:45:27Speaker 8: the ball.
- 2:45:28Speaker 1: Ben he's a tough guy and he is off the
- 2:45:30Speaker 1: field and in good shape right now, and Utah will
- 2:45:38Speaker 1: be okay. Actually that was not Ben Lennon. That was
- 2:45:43Speaker 1: Jared marsh who punted that time. I don't know what's
- 2:45:49Speaker 1: happened to Ben Lennon, but either way, it's going to
- 2:45:51Speaker 1: be a personal foul and a first down for Utah
- 2:45:53Speaker 1: for the Washington State thirty five yard line. Yeah, that
- 2:45:59Speaker 1: was the back cup punter Jared marsh I saw the
- 2:46:02Speaker 1: thirty and I just assumed thirty three. It was thirty seven. Well,
- 2:46:06Speaker 1: Jared's okayin I don't know where Ben Lennon is.
- 2:46:08Speaker 8: Maybe Coach Went knew that was gonna happen. He didn't
- 2:46:10Speaker 8: want to sacrifice his punter.
- 2:46:12Speaker 1: On the final game of the year, list under center
- 2:46:17Speaker 1: Jordan behind him on first intemp of the Washington State
- 2:46:19Speaker 1: thirty five, fly sweet, give it on the end around
- 2:46:22Speaker 1: the brand, Keithy. You picks up keen and almost eleven yards.
- 2:46:25Speaker 1: Keithy's so good on that call. All the defense was
- 2:46:28Speaker 1: focusing in on Ty Jordan, and all Keithy does is
- 2:46:31Speaker 1: pick up eleven and another Utah first down. Yeah.
- 2:46:33Speaker 8: What's nice is these plays hit quickly, you know, and
- 2:46:36Speaker 8: Keithy's so good at getting around that edge and he's
- 2:46:38Speaker 8: just getting He's got better and better. Great job there
- 2:46:41Speaker 8: by fathering him and Solomoninis blocking down the field for Keithy.
- 2:46:46Speaker 1: They marked him down just shy of it. Actually got
- 2:46:48Speaker 1: nine and a half on that play. Mee went down
- 2:46:51Speaker 1: before he got the yardage. Now Utah is going to
- 2:46:53Speaker 1: take its time play clock at twelve as they break
- 2:46:54Speaker 1: the huddle.
- 2:46:56Speaker 8: Yeah, and sometimes in this situation, it's better when you
- 2:46:58Speaker 8: you just get more down, so more o'clock.
- 2:47:02Speaker 1: List under center, I formation Tie Jordan dots the eye
- 2:47:05Speaker 1: they handed the time Ky dropped behind the line of scrimmage.
- 2:47:10Speaker 1: I'm quite sure what Cole Fotheringham was doing on that
- 2:47:12Speaker 1: play as the lead blocker because he missed third down
- 2:47:15Speaker 1: coming up clock running three twenty three to nineteen three eighteen,
- 2:47:19Speaker 1: Utah with a seven point lead. Here, what a win
- 2:47:23Speaker 1: this would be. I'm telling you this, this is so
- 2:47:25Speaker 1: reminiscent of that BYU game a couple of years ago.
- 2:47:28Speaker 1: And the score right now is exactly the same.
- 2:47:31Speaker 8: Yeah, And if you remember that game, it's like how
- 2:47:32Speaker 8: we're playing BYU at the end of the season and
- 2:47:35Speaker 8: we're already going to the PAC twelfth championship game and
- 2:47:37Speaker 8: this game doesn't mean anything, and so there's just not
- 2:47:40Speaker 8: that same energy.
- 2:47:41Speaker 1: Three tight end look too wide receiver here for Utah.
- 2:47:45Speaker 1: List under center, Tie Jordan the tailbat lay clock at three.
- 2:47:49Speaker 1: List takes it and hands it to Tie. Tie dives inside.
- 2:47:52Speaker 1: He's gonna be short of first down yardage. So what
- 2:47:56Speaker 1: do you do here? At your Kyle Winningham You've got
- 2:47:58Speaker 1: fourth in a yard on the Washington twenty.
- 2:48:01Speaker 9: Six Washington State. They're second of the half. It will
- 2:48:05Speaker 9: be a thirty second time out.
- 2:48:06Speaker 1: Do you try the field goal to go up ten?
- 2:48:08Speaker 1: Here with Jayden Redding, this is well within his range.
- 2:48:12Speaker 1: This is to where he hit from in bad conditions
- 2:48:13Speaker 1: a week ago. Or do you go for it?
- 2:48:15Speaker 2: You know what I do here, Scott, I know what
- 2:48:17Speaker 2: I do.
- 2:48:18Speaker 1: You go for it. I'm gonna kick the field goal.
- 2:48:20Speaker 8: No, I kicked the field I kicked the field No,
- 2:48:21Speaker 8: heaven no any chance you have of getting up by
- 2:48:24Speaker 8: two scores with this little amount of time. You're about
- 2:48:27Speaker 8: as in an ideal position as you want. The ball's
- 2:48:30Speaker 8: right in the middle of the field. This is this
- 2:48:32Speaker 8: is the best place for your kicker to kick the ball.
- 2:48:35Speaker 8: This isn't a long kick. Yeah, I kicked the field goal.
- 2:48:40Speaker 1: I would too, even though they converted on their last
- 2:48:43Speaker 1: fourth down. I just I like the idea. Redding's been
- 2:48:46Speaker 1: good for you this year. This is well within his range.
- 2:48:49Speaker 1: There's no win, there's no conditions. Yeah, they're not gonna
- 2:48:53Speaker 1: bring the field goal team out here. Man Lennon's out.
- 2:48:57Speaker 1: He's gonna do the holding here. I think No March
- 2:48:59Speaker 1: is Oh that could be a Now that's a little different.
- 2:49:05Speaker 1: Jared March Jewey the holding here for the first time
- 2:49:08Speaker 1: on a field goal. It'll be a forty four yard
- 2:49:11Speaker 1: field goal right down Broadway. Mark Kraft to snap it.
- 2:49:16Speaker 1: March will do the holding and Jane Redding will do
- 2:49:18Speaker 1: with the kicking. Here. Snap is good, the hold is good,
- 2:49:23Speaker 1: the kick is away by Redding, it's high, it's endover Endon.
- 2:49:25Speaker 1: It is good. It's good. With two thirty seven to play,
- 2:49:32Speaker 1: Jade Redding remains perfect on the season and he puts
- 2:49:36Speaker 1: Utah up ten thirty eight to twenty eight.
- 2:49:40Speaker 8: Well, I'll tell you maybe the specialty player of the
- 2:49:43Speaker 8: game is March. That's not easy to come in cold
- 2:49:46Speaker 8: like that and get the hold down and does an
- 2:49:49Speaker 8: excellent job. Great kick, and then he takes one for
- 2:49:52Speaker 8: the team on the block punt or the roughing the
- 2:49:56Speaker 8: punter one. But nice, nice job from someone who's held before.
- 2:50:01Speaker 1: It is not fun.
- 2:50:01Speaker 8: It's not a fun job under the best of circumstances.
- 2:50:04Speaker 8: And just good job for March here.
- 2:50:12Speaker 1: Utah has now scored thirty one unanswered points Scott Mitchell
- 2:50:17Speaker 1: thirty one unanswered here in the second half under the
- 2:50:21Speaker 1: leadership of Drew Lisch, the red Shirt senior from Jordan
- 2:50:26Speaker 1: High School.
- 2:50:26Speaker 2: What a storybook.
- 2:50:28Speaker 1: If this is indeed Drew's last game, what a storybook
- 2:50:31Speaker 1: finished this could be.
- 2:50:32Speaker 8: But it just goes to show you what your offense
- 2:50:35Speaker 8: can do if you just don't try to do too much.
- 2:50:38Speaker 8: You know, you got a lot of people around you.
- 2:50:40Speaker 8: You don't have to do everything. Just get the ball
- 2:50:42Speaker 8: into hands of the people that can make stuff happen.
- 2:50:45Speaker 1: Wow, and there's a line drive kick Jordan Noise didn't
- 2:50:49Speaker 1: mess around that time. Whether it drove it through the
- 2:50:51Speaker 1: back of the end zone and into the construction project. Hey,
- 2:50:55Speaker 1: I think if you kick a ball in the construction project,
- 2:50:58Speaker 1: it just stays there.
- 2:50:59Speaker 8: I wouldn't want to go in there and find, you know,
- 2:51:01Speaker 8: under a piece of you know, barre bar or something.
- 2:51:04Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what. Seven plays thirty yards. Utah's
- 2:51:09Speaker 1: forced two Washington State turnovers here in the second half
- 2:51:12Speaker 1: and done a good job getting points off turnovers. Ten
- 2:51:19Speaker 1: points off those turnovers.
- 2:51:20Speaker 8: Nice jot by reading to make a kick when it
- 2:51:22Speaker 8: counts too, you know those.
- 2:51:23Speaker 1: Presher kicks Porgie in the backfield. Two thirty seven to play.
- 2:51:28Speaker 1: Washington State's gonna have to go and go quickly the
- 2:51:31Speaker 1: lord to pass, fires over the middle, Cotton dropped.
- 2:51:35Speaker 2: Oh, he had a man wide open.
- 2:51:37Speaker 1: That's Calvin who's had a big day to day for him,
- 2:51:40Speaker 1: Jamir Calvin's got seven catches for one hundred and four yards,
- 2:51:43Speaker 1: but that one hit him right in stride and he
- 2:51:45Speaker 1: dropped it, brought and got a hand on it. But
- 2:51:48Speaker 1: that's still a catchable ball by Calvin. Yeah, and you know,
- 2:51:51Speaker 1: just Devin Lloyd looks lost back there. It just needs
- 2:51:54Speaker 1: to get more depth in his dropping, make it harder
- 2:51:57Speaker 1: to throw through those lanes. Second down and ten down
- 2:52:00Speaker 1: by ten Washington State with two and a half minutes
- 2:52:03Speaker 1: to play. Utah just gonna rush for and drop everybody
- 2:52:07Speaker 1: else into coverage. Don't get beat deep. Here's de Laura
- 2:52:10Speaker 1: scrambling looking outside being chased by Tafua. Fires down the
- 2:52:14Speaker 1: field and incomplete. He hit fawn in the back, sa
- 2:52:18Speaker 1: Mere Vaughan. He had the covers trying to get it
- 2:52:20Speaker 1: to Calvin again, but I think he hit to the
- 2:52:22Speaker 1: vendor of the back.
- 2:52:23Speaker 8: No take that, but it was not the Alax and
- 2:52:25Speaker 8: Monte Aleen came out and was gonna cover the guy
- 2:52:27Speaker 8: in the flat area and the guy in the flat,
- 2:52:30Speaker 8: turned up the sideline, and it was just kind of
- 2:52:32Speaker 8: a miscommunication there, turned around, he probably.
- 2:52:35Speaker 2: Catched the ball. So now third down in ten.
- 2:52:39Speaker 1: Cougar's three out of eleven on third down, just one
- 2:52:42Speaker 1: out of five here in the second half. And again,
- 2:52:46Speaker 1: Borgey was so good for them in the first half.
- 2:52:48Speaker 1: It's not been a factor here in the second half.
- 2:52:49Speaker 1: Bunch four man Utah rush on third down in ten.
- 2:52:57Speaker 1: Now they'll bring a blitz. They throw a long looking long,
- 2:53:01Speaker 1: tosses up and caught dropped Calvin again in complete good
- 2:53:05Speaker 1: coverage by Brock. A little surprise they brought the blitz
- 2:53:09Speaker 1: on that play, but brought a good coverage up the
- 2:53:11Speaker 1: far sideline.
- 2:53:12Speaker 8: Yeah, I like I like the no call on this.
- 2:53:14Speaker 1: I mean, just this.
- 2:53:15Speaker 8: This is great coverage here, and it's you know, that's
- 2:53:17Speaker 8: the best you're gonna get from Washington State, and you
- 2:53:20Speaker 8: know you can cover and so so you know, come
- 2:53:23Speaker 8: up and be a little bit more aggressive here we go.
- 2:53:26Speaker 8: Fourth down.
- 2:53:26Speaker 1: This is in essence the ball game. Carden. Hey, there's
- 2:53:30Speaker 1: our j Hubert making his way on the field. Our
- 2:53:32Speaker 1: j has been battling injuries, not quite healthy this year,
- 2:53:35Speaker 1: coming off that knee surgery a year ago. Good to
- 2:53:38Speaker 1: see him out there on fourth down and ten. Watch
- 2:53:42Speaker 1: the back out of the backfield here, that's the Laura
- 2:53:44Speaker 1: tried to get that ball to Borgie.
- 2:53:46Speaker 2: Laura surveys the defense and now what.
- 2:53:48Speaker 1: Do we have the lay a game offense. Five yard
- 2:53:53Speaker 1: penalty fourth down. Wow. Usually you see a coach take
- 2:53:59Speaker 1: a time out before where you get that penalty, but
- 2:54:02Speaker 1: nothing that time for Nick Rolovich. So it's down fourth
- 2:54:05Speaker 1: down in fifteen, back of the twenty yard line.
- 2:54:09Speaker 8: And Utah has that had that three man rush in
- 2:54:12Speaker 8: on that last look, and Washington State has run a
- 2:54:16Speaker 8: draw every time against it.
- 2:54:17Speaker 1: I don't know that they wanted to do that on
- 2:54:19Speaker 1: that fourth down. Here we go, fourth down in fifteen,
- 2:54:22Speaker 1: four man rush coming here for Utah. Four wide receivers
- 2:54:26Speaker 1: in a back for Washington State, and the Louisville pass
- 2:54:29Speaker 1: backpedal surveys, looks fires down the field, intercept it. Phillips
- 2:54:33Speaker 1: has it.
- 2:54:34Speaker 3: Twenty five twenty fifteen, ten five touchdown, household, pick six
- 2:54:40Speaker 3: for Clark Phillips, and that will be the dagger today
- 2:54:45Speaker 3: as Utah goes up forty four twenty eight.
- 2:54:51Speaker 8: Well, in a nice Utah is in a two deep
- 2:54:53Speaker 8: zone and Clark Phillips is kind of sitting out there
- 2:54:55Speaker 8: wait for that throw. Washington Saint runs an out route
- 2:54:59Speaker 8: and he just gets a gift right there and show
- 2:55:01Speaker 8: some great speed.
- 2:55:02Speaker 1: He's got to be pumped though.
- 2:55:03Speaker 8: He's just a freshman out there and catches a pick six,
- 2:55:06Speaker 8: he gets a fumble today. He's gonna be a good
- 2:55:11Speaker 8: player for this Utah team.
- 2:55:12Speaker 1: There are so many guys on that field that are
- 2:55:14Speaker 1: gonna be really good players. Pat here from Jayden Redding
- 2:55:20Speaker 1: to make it thirty eight unanswered points pulled, snap kick good,
- 2:55:25Speaker 1: Utah forty five Washington State twenty eight. Thirty eight unanswered
- 2:55:31Speaker 1: all here in the second half by this Utah football team.
- 2:55:34Speaker 1: What an answer. And I cannot wait to hear what
- 2:55:37Speaker 1: Kyle Whittingham said to those guys at halftime. If there
- 2:55:41Speaker 1: was any paint in the temporary locker room there and
- 2:55:44Speaker 1: it came off the walls based on what we've seen
- 2:55:46Speaker 1: here in the second half. Well, you.
- 2:55:49Speaker 8: When you have a talented team and they kind of,
- 2:55:54Speaker 8: you know, they kind of lea goose egg, you know,
- 2:55:57Speaker 8: in the first half, and they come back and they
- 2:56:00Speaker 8: they have the ability. You see these special players start
- 2:56:04Speaker 8: making plays when they want to and when they start
- 2:56:08Speaker 8: figuring out how good they are and they really mature
- 2:56:12Speaker 8: and they really put it all together, and maybe this
- 2:56:15Speaker 8: year has been a really good kind of introduction or
- 2:56:20Speaker 8: a glimpse into who they can become.
- 2:56:22Speaker 1: You know, you get.
- 2:56:23Speaker 8: Excited and it seems like a team that really wants
- 2:56:26Speaker 8: to play, wants to win.
- 2:56:27Speaker 1: But a remarkable comeback here. Quite as you talk.
- 2:56:29Speaker 2: Football, really there's no other way to say it.
- 2:56:33Speaker 1: You talk about momentum being a fickle thing and weird
- 2:56:36Speaker 1: in sports. I don't know how you explain this. Jordan
- 2:56:41Speaker 1: Noy's with another kick off. This one's just going to
- 2:56:43Speaker 1: be a squib ball down through the hands of the
- 2:56:45Speaker 1: first guy into the hands of the second guy who
- 2:56:47Speaker 1: goes down at about the seventeen yard line with two
- 2:56:50Speaker 1: six to play the ball game one day day.
- 2:56:58Speaker 2: For the University of Utah. What a way to put
- 2:57:01Speaker 2: a cab on what was a weird season.
- 2:57:06Speaker 8: It truly is remarkable, a weird ending to a weird year,
- 2:57:10Speaker 8: but a glimpse into something that could be really special
- 2:57:14Speaker 8: next season. Hopefully we're in a place as a world
- 2:57:18Speaker 8: that we can really reap the benefits of a full
- 2:57:21Speaker 8: college football season next year.
- 2:57:23Speaker 2: And what these players can really do well. Jadan Laura
- 2:57:27Speaker 2: is going to come back out again.
- 2:57:29Speaker 1: Whatever was ailing him early in the fourth quarter is
- 2:57:32Speaker 1: no longer ailing him now.
- 2:57:34Speaker 2: It's just the Utah defense that's ailing him.
- 2:57:37Speaker 1: Utah's fours three turnover Scott, They've got seventeen points off
- 2:57:41Speaker 1: those three turnovers. Yeah, and.
- 2:57:45Speaker 8: You know it's kind of the you know, you get
- 2:57:48Speaker 8: a lot of turnovers and you give a lot of turnovers,
- 2:57:52Speaker 8: it kind of equals.
- 2:57:52Speaker 1: It all equals all out first and ten past the
- 2:57:55Speaker 1: Laura throws it near side, caught by Joey Hobart. Obart
- 2:58:00Speaker 1: grabs it for a gain of seven yards. Clock stops
- 2:58:05Speaker 1: with exactly two minutes to play the ball game. We'll
- 2:58:08Speaker 1: have plenty coming up on the postgame show. We'll hear
- 2:58:09Speaker 1: from coach Win some players. We're gonna talk to Drew Lisk.
- 2:58:13Speaker 1: If I have to send Matt Roblez over to the
- 2:58:15Speaker 1: football facility to bring him back, We're talking to Drew Lisk.
- 2:58:18Speaker 1: We're gonna talk to Britton, Covey, Clark, Phillips, and a
- 2:58:20Speaker 1: bunch of others coming up. Cam and Cooper the ball
- 2:58:25Speaker 1: game again. The lefty from Lehigh surveys the field fires
- 2:58:29Speaker 1: down the field, nearly intercepted. Trying to force that ball
- 2:58:33Speaker 1: into Joey Hubert. Clark Phillips almost had himself a second
- 2:58:38Speaker 1: interception right there. Third down coming up. I'm not quite
- 2:58:42Speaker 1: sure what Clark was jumping for that ball.
- 2:58:44Speaker 8: Was loan away well, I think he was trying to
- 2:58:47Speaker 8: jump like he was anticipating.
- 2:58:49Speaker 1: At being more on target.
- 2:58:50Speaker 8: Yeah, and then it came out kind of slid back
- 2:58:53Speaker 8: to the left. Ball was almost like a Fernando Valenzuela's
- 2:58:57Speaker 8: screwball come out.
- 2:58:58Speaker 1: Funky Cougar's one out of six on third down. Here
- 2:59:01Speaker 1: in the second half, they faced third down at about three.
- 2:59:04Speaker 1: Cooper and the gun Forgy next to him delaid handoff.
- 2:59:07Speaker 1: Max Forgy picks his way forward, turns the corner thirty
- 2:59:10Speaker 1: and written out of bounds at about the thirty five
- 2:59:14Speaker 1: thirty six yard line. He was doubled up there by
- 2:59:17Speaker 1: Vonte Davis and Xavier Carlon. Look at big x Man.
- 2:59:22Speaker 1: That kid is Jike. He's six foot seven scott and two.
- 2:59:25Speaker 2: Hundred and sixty pounds and he's eighteen years old.
- 2:59:28Speaker 1: There's a lot of good look at players on this
- 2:59:31Speaker 1: Just telling you, man, Fillinger's in that game, right now too.
- 2:59:33Speaker 8: The depth that's there and just the athleticism, that's a
- 2:59:37Speaker 8: good football team.
- 2:59:38Speaker 1: The only guy they may lose a couple of guys
- 2:59:40Speaker 1: off this defense, Devin Lloyd if he goes to the pros,
- 2:59:43Speaker 1: and maybe just maybe Nate Richie if he goes on
- 2:59:45Speaker 1: a mission. Everybody else should be back. Here's Cam and
- 2:59:48Speaker 1: Cooper to pass again on first down, looking long. He's
- 2:59:51Speaker 1: got a man out there and open in Utah territory.
- 2:59:54Speaker 1: Caught and complete. They had Donovan Holly back up White receiver.
- 3:00:00Speaker 1: He's way down the depth chart. First down yards to
- 3:00:04Speaker 1: the Utah forty nine. Camn Cooper now three out of
- 3:00:08Speaker 1: six for about forty five yards. He'll pass again, Cooper
- 3:00:13Speaker 1: firing outside hit as he throws, caught it and complete
- 3:00:17Speaker 1: juggle as he went out of bounds.
- 3:00:19Speaker 8: That was Renard Bell pick up of about six and
- 3:00:24Speaker 8: at first down. At this point, Utah is just trying
- 3:00:26Speaker 8: to keep everything in front of it. That's pretty accurate
- 3:00:29Speaker 8: throw there. Yeah, he holds onto it, kind of bobbled it,
- 3:00:32Speaker 8: but keep everything in front of you, keep the falling bounds.
- 3:00:40Speaker 8: Make him go and use all of the clock to
- 3:00:41Speaker 8: score second down and four downs. Cooper stays in the shotgun.
- 3:00:45Speaker 8: Dam Macintosh with it.
- 3:00:51Speaker 1: Cooper to pass Blitz coming steps fires dear side caught
- 3:00:56Speaker 1: Trevelle Harris caught it with a defender closing quickly. Clarke
- 3:01:00Speaker 1: Phillips got first down yard It's picked up eight to
- 3:01:03Speaker 1: the Utah thirty seven yard line.
- 3:01:05Speaker 2: Manute two to play clock now begins to run.
- 3:01:08Speaker 1: I think, yep, here we go. Just keep him out
- 3:01:12Speaker 1: of the end zone here. If you're Utah, preserve that
- 3:01:14Speaker 1: second half shutout the laid hand off the Macintosh taking
- 3:01:21Speaker 1: down to the backfield. Great read by Nate Ritchie and
- 3:01:25Speaker 1: a time out taken by Nick Rolovitz out of be
- 3:01:28Speaker 1: his final time out with fifty seconds remaining. I'll tell
- 3:01:30Speaker 1: you what, Nate Ritchie has gotten better and better every week.
- 3:01:33Speaker 1: I'm not so sure he's not better against the run
- 3:01:35Speaker 1: right now than he is against the pass. He is
- 3:01:37Speaker 1: tremendous scout coming off that edge. And that was that
- 3:01:40Speaker 1: run blitz right there.
- 3:01:41Speaker 8: One guy has the running back, one guy has the quarterback,
- 3:01:44Speaker 8: and so Nate Ritchie has one job tackle the running.
- 3:01:47Speaker 1: Back and just does a phenomenal job.
- 3:01:49Speaker 8: There's no hesitation, no indecision, and he makes a great
- 3:01:53Speaker 8: play in the open field against a nice a good player.
- 3:02:01Speaker 2: What a day to day for Utah football. It looked
- 3:02:04Speaker 2: like it was not going to be the best day.
- 3:02:07Speaker 1: At halftime, down twenty eight to seven, they make the
- 3:02:10Speaker 1: quarterback change and Drew Lisk and what I mean he
- 3:02:15Speaker 1: technically Drew feels like he's been in the program since
- 3:02:17Speaker 1: Utah joined the Pac twelve conference, but with his eligibility frozen,
- 3:02:22Speaker 1: if you wanted to come back, Utah's not sure what
- 3:02:25Speaker 1: they're gonna have a quarterback. So we'll say we can
- 3:02:27Speaker 1: ask him in the postgame show what his plans might be.
- 3:02:31Speaker 1: First and ten, they get second down in twelve for
- 3:02:33Speaker 1: the Coopers for the Utah thirty nine, Camvin Cooper back
- 3:02:40Speaker 1: pedals to pass Blitz coming, looks long down the field,
- 3:02:43Speaker 1: throws the out and it's caught at the Utah twenty
- 3:02:46Speaker 1: three by Joey Hibberts, first down yardage with forty five
- 3:02:50Speaker 1: seconds to play. I know it doesn't matter in the
- 3:02:53Speaker 1: big picture, Scott, but if you're the Utah defense, you
- 3:02:56Speaker 1: have pitched a shutout here in the second half, you
- 3:02:59Speaker 1: played so well, you don't want to give up a touchdown.
- 3:03:00Speaker 8: Here, dude, Well, no, because in kicking on side kicking.
- 3:03:03Speaker 8: Aint got to do is kick a field goal to
- 3:03:04Speaker 8: tie up?
- 3:03:05Speaker 1: No, no, no, seventeen? Oh there way, Yeah, it doesn't matter,
- 3:03:08Speaker 1: but you want to preserve that second half shut out.
- 3:03:10Speaker 1: Here's Cooper to pass again, you thought, twisting and stunning
- 3:03:13Speaker 1: up front. Cooper gonna scramble for his life for the outside,
- 3:03:15Speaker 1: being chased by Fillinger. Cooper's got the twenty. Cooper's got
- 3:03:18Speaker 1: the fifteen and out of bounds with thirty five seconds
- 3:03:21Speaker 1: to play. Here the ball game.
- 3:03:23Speaker 8: That's a long run for eight yard there really is.
- 3:03:26Speaker 8: I mean you're on the left ash, you run backwards.
- 3:03:29Speaker 8: You gotta run all the way across the field for
- 3:03:31Speaker 8: eight yard.
- 3:03:32Speaker 1: Cam's big guy too. He's six foot four in about
- 3:03:34Speaker 1: two hundred and fifteen pounds.
- 3:03:36Speaker 8: His coach in high school actually coached with me when
- 3:03:39Speaker 8: I was coaching. Ed Larson really really ed played football
- 3:03:43Speaker 8: in New Mexico. Good great coach four wide.
- 3:03:46Speaker 1: Look here on first and ten, making second and two,
- 3:03:49Speaker 1: I should say second one from the Utah fourteen, Cam
- 3:03:53Speaker 1: and Cooper Dion McIntosh loaded up in the pistol.
- 3:03:56Speaker 2: Right now, Utah jumps in the neutral zone.
- 3:03:59Speaker 1: Flag fly, Cam and Cooper's gonna scramble to the outside,
- 3:04:02Speaker 1: gonna be chased by five, So I'll throw it into
- 3:04:04Speaker 1: the end zone incomplete, and that's gonna be off sides
- 3:04:07Speaker 1: on I think Max to Pike jumped to the neutral
- 3:04:10Speaker 1: zone before the stat.
- 3:04:12Speaker 2: Twenty seven seconds to.
- 3:04:14Speaker 9: Play offside defense number ninety two five yard penalty.
- 3:04:20Speaker 1: Excuse me. That results in a first down if they'll
- 3:04:24Speaker 1: move it to about the nine yard line. And now
- 3:04:27Speaker 1: the Utah defense is going to have to try and
- 3:04:29Speaker 1: hold for twenty seven seconds to keep Cam and Cooper.
- 3:04:34Speaker 1: I'm sure it would be a thrill for him coming
- 3:04:36Speaker 1: back home to toss a touchdown pass in his home town. Yeah.
- 3:04:41Speaker 8: I wondered what had happened to Cam, and you know
- 3:04:44Speaker 8: he's still there and still fighting to play.
- 3:04:47Speaker 1: Four down lineman for you, first and goal for the
- 3:04:49Speaker 1: nine here for Washington State, Cooper three step drop rolls
- 3:04:54Speaker 1: out to his left, looking being chased hit by keith
- 3:04:57Speaker 1: He throws and out of bounds incomplete. Leek Keithy closed
- 3:05:01Speaker 1: that gap really fast on Cam and Cooper. That'll bring
- 3:05:03Speaker 1: up second down and goal with twenty seconds to play.
- 3:05:06Speaker 8: Yeah, what happens is you know Utah is not going
- 3:05:09Speaker 8: to give up a big play so they let you
- 3:05:11Speaker 8: have those little out routes and those shorter routes that
- 3:05:13Speaker 8: you get down by the end zone and there's nowhere
- 3:05:15Speaker 8: to there's no more outs to go, you know. So
- 3:05:18Speaker 8: these these dbs can sit on routes, and it makes
- 3:05:21Speaker 8: makes it hard when you get get down here tight
