Utah football schedule, record, stats and more
Record: 4-6 overall, 1-6 in Big 12 play
Coach: Kyle Whittingham (20th year; 166-85 record)
Utah has finished with a winning record in 17 of Whittingham's 19 seasons to this point — including a current streak of 10 years in a row — but the Utes face an uphill battle to keep that alive. Utah needs to win Saturday and next week at UCF to hit the .500 mark.
The Utes started the year 4-0, sweeping the three-game non-conference slate. They opened Big 12 play with a highly anticipated ranked matchup vs. Oklahoma State and won it, 22-19. But neither team has won a single game since that day. Utah has dropped six games in a row, including three at home, to fall to 4-6.
Defensively, Utah ranked in the top 25 in points per game allowed at 20.3. On offense, Utah has been plagued by turnovers (21, including 17 interceptions). The Utes have not won the turnover battle since Sept. 14 vs. in-state rival Utah State.
Isaac Wilson has seen the bulk of the work at quarterback this year, tallying 10 touchdowns to 11 interceptions on a 54.8% completion rate. Micah Bernard is the team's leading rusher, with 880 yards on the ground.
