  Coming off a much-needed 52-point win over Arizona State last week, it was time for Utah to show fans what they were really made of as they hit the road to take on No. 5 Washington in Seattle. Luckily for viewers, the match turned out to be an intense showcase of perseverance and skill...

Washington pitched a shut out in the second half to rally for a 35-28 win over No. 13 Utah on Saturday.

Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, and No. 5 Washington pitched a shut out in the second half to rally for a 35-28 win over No. 13 Utah on Saturday.

Utah almost played spoiler after a strong first half where No. 18 Utahs offense dictated the terms of the game and controlled a 4-point lead going into the halftime break.

As Washington linebacker Alphonzo Tuputaia raced into the end zone for a pick-six (so he thought), Utah offensive lineman Michael Mokofisi noticed something. Tuputaia started to celebrate what would have been a game-changing interception return for a touchdown too early. With no one within 10 yards of him, Tuputaia simply dropped the football one yard before the goal line and went into his celebration.

Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, and No. 5 Washington pitched a shut out in the second half to rally for a 35-28 win over No. 18 Utah on Saturday.

Maybe Penixs playing style as a pocket passer helps tilt the matchup toward Utahs defense; regardless, Washington will hit some home runs and will get some points on the board.
