Seattle • In a makeshift postgame interview room near the loading docks inside Husky Stadium, Kyle Whittingham spoke softly. On the other side of the drapes not too far away, game-day staff members could be overheard reliving the final two minutes of a game and result that was, in a sense, a mirror image of Utah’s 2017 season.



And against the No. 16-ranked Washington Huskies Saturday, it wasn’t, even though the Utes were there in the driver’s seat after playing their best first 58 minutes of the season.
