San Antonio • Twenty-five days after Utah’s prolific offense went cold against Oregon in the Pac-12 championship game, things didn’t get much better in the Alamo Bowl.
After 12 regular-season games, the Utes offense was averaging 35.6 points and 453.6 yards per game, both good for third in the Pac-12 and in the top-25 nationally. On Tuesday night against Texas at the Alamodome, Utah was shut out in the first half of a 38-10 loss at the Alamodome.
Against a Texas defense playing under an interim coordinator after ranking 108th nationally, the Utes managed just 254 yards for the game, 127 in each half.
