The 5-foot-10, 210-pound sophomore from Florida rushed for a career-high 141 yards on 20 carries, and added three receptions for 26 yards. He gave the Utes offense a hard-nosed element and balance.
Last week, Stanford’s pressure rattled the Utes significantly and forced Troy Williams into a less than stellar game. Saturday night against USC, Williams passed for 262 yards, using play-action in several key situations — including a pivotal fourth-and-1 on the final possession.
