Overview

• Texas Tech beat No. 16 Utah 34-10 in Salt Lake City as the Utes managed 263 total yards and four turnovers, including two interceptions by quarterback Devon Dampier.
• Utah was limited to 101 rushing yards at 3.3 yards per carry and scored on only two of 15 drives.
• A 69-yard Jackson Bennee touchdown was erased for ineligible player downfield on No. 55, announced by head referee Michael VanderVelde.
• Head coach Kyle Whittingham said a lineman misheard the play call and failed to recognize play action, calling the penalty correct.
• Salt Lake Tribune analysis questioned a run-heavy, short-pass game plan under playcaller Jason Beck with Whittingham input, and Utah now readies for an early-departure trip to West Virginia.
