The 2016 football season is in the books for the Utah Utes football team. While the Utes failed to capture that elusive Pac-12 South Championship, they did win nine or more games and a bowl for the third straight season. We will hand out offensive MVP, defensive MVP, special teams MVP, best newcomer, best freshman, and best unsung. Utah had a 1,000 yard rusher for the third year in a row. They had a player record double-digit sacks. They also had the Ray Guy Award winner for a record third year in a row.
Offensive MVP: RB Joe Williams
The season did not get off to a great start for Williams.
