When No. 3 Oregon and No. 23 Utah last met in the 2019 Pac-12 Championship Game, the Ducks won handily and wrecked the Utes' hopes of making the College Football Playoff. Utah got its revenge on Saturday night by clinching the Pac-12 South with a dominant 38-7 victory that likely dashed the Ducks' CFP aspirations. The Ducks' loss likely ensures that the Pac-12 will not have a representative in the CFP for the fifth straight season, with Washington's appearance at the close of the 2016 season being the last for the league.
Utah took a 28-0 lead into halftime by denying Oregon points on all three of its trips into Utes territory. It capped the half off in thrilling fashion with a 78-yard punt return from Britain Covey as time expired in the second quarter. An Oregon team that plays at a methodical pace scored on its opening series of the third quarter, but the Ducks couldn't sustain the momentum and suffered their second loss of the season -- with the previous defeat coming to Stanford.
Oregon finished with just 294 total yards, averaging only 2.7 yards per rush while converting on jus 6 of 14 third down attempts. Tavion Thomas ran for 94 yards and scored three touchdowns to lead the Utah offense, while quarterback Cam Rising completed 10 of 18 passes for 178 yards. Rising improved to 7-1 this season as the starter since taking over following the team's 1-2 start. His favorite target was tight end Brant Kuithe, who caught five passes for 118 yards.
With the win, the highest ranked victory at home for the Utes, coach Kyle Whittingham is now the program's all-time wins leader with 142 victories. He surpasses Ike Armstrong, who led the program from 1925 to 1949.
