Utah report card
Offense
Brett Ratliff looked like a seasoned veteran in his first-ever Div. I start, leading the team to 491 yards of total offense and five touchdowns. Quinton Ganther picked up most of his 131 yards rushing in the first half. Best thing no turnovers.
GRADE A-
Defense
Played almost flawlessly in the first half but had some rough spots in the second half when the Cougar offense got rolling. Casey Evans' stripping the ball from Fahu Tahi was huge in the second quarter.
GRADE C
Special teams
The weak link for the Utes on Saturday. Dan Beardall made a pair of field goals, but he also missed a pair including one on the final play of regulation. Utah's six punts, including two rugby-style punts by Eric Weddle, only averaged 31.7 yards.
