2. Utah running back Zack Moss is an absolute beast

I’m sure you all know this, but if you don’t, senior running back Zack Moss was a beast for Utah throughout this matchup. He was simply able to make sure that his team won this one by what he was able to do on the ground. He was quick, efficient and able to cover what was necessary to get the first down or in one case the touchdown.

Moss finished with 29 carries for 188 yards on the night.

There were other running backs that helped Moss out for sure in this one, but he was a workhorse for the Utes and every minute of it was necessary to crank out this win for Utah. Moss had over 1,000 yards in both his sophomore and junior years and I wouldn’t be surprised if he cranked out another 1,000-yard season to cap off his career at Utah.
