For a second consecutive year the Utes missed out on playing against highly-touted UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen. However, next weekend they will have to deal with the most accomplished quarterback in the conference in Luke Falk.
A walk-on turned record-setting passer, Falk has made Washington State his home and the Pac-12 Conference his stage on the way to becoming one of the most prolific quarterbacks in college football.
This weekend, Falk will play an hour and a half down the road from his hometown of Logan, Utah, when he and the Cougars (8-2, 5-2) visit Rice-Eccles Stadium and take on Utah (5-4, 2-4) Saturday afternoon.
