Utah's defensive linemen so frequently have been honored by the Pac-12 this season that a rotation is established. This week is Bradlee Anae's turn again.
The senior defensive end started this trend Oct. 21, when he was named the Pac-12 Defensive Lineman of the Week after a win over Arizona State. The three other starters on the line — Leki Fotu, John Penisini and Mika Tafua — followed as honorees, then Anae claimed the award Monday for his play in Saturday’s 35-7 win at Arizona. Disregarding a bye week, Utah defensive linemen have been recognized for five straight games.
