Utah Football fans react to blowout loss to Oregon

Last week, the Utah Utes and their pig farmer quarterback, Bryson Barnes, pulled off a last-minute win against Caleb Williams and USC. This week, Kyle Wittingham’s No. 13 Utes were no match for Bo Nix and No. 8 Oregon.

Unlike Williams, Nix is dominating the Utah defense and the Ducks carried a 35-6 lead into the fourth quarter. Utah fans weren’t interested in sticking around the see the last 15 minutes of this blowout.

Oregon head coach Dan Lanning told Fox reporter Jenny Taft that their game plan was to take the Utah crowd out of it at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City. His Ducks have done just that. On social media, the fanbase isn’t as quiet as the fans at the stadium.

Oregon jumped out to a 7-0 lead on a surgical drive from Bo Nix that ended with the Heisman candidate quarterback keeping the ball himself for a rushing touchdown. Nix has thrown two more and dominated the Utah defense.

Utah fans aren’t happy with the state of their team even after a surprising win over USC. However, that USC win isn’t looking quite as impressive with the Trojans trailing Cal 28-17 at halftime.

Utah will be losing a streak of dominance at home in Salt Lake City.

Other fans are seeing the bright side. Utah has dealt with a lot of injuries that have forced them to play the entire year with backup quarterbacks and convert their starting safety into a two-way running back. There is still some hope for this team that has won back-to-back Pac 12 titles.
