Kyle Whittingham the best in postseason football

SALT LAKE CITY — When it comes to winning football in the postseason, there is no one better than Utah head coach Kyle Whittingham.

Style points aside, Whittingham is nearly unbeatable in the postseason. With Utah's 35-28 win over BYU Saturday in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl, Whittingham now sits at 9-1 all-time in bowl games, making him the college football leader with a .900 winning percentage among coaches with at least 10 bowl appearances.

Whittingham has now surpassed his former mentor and friend Urban Meyer at the top spot, who currently sits at 8-2 (.
