BERKLEY, Calif. — All you want in a game is an opportunity to win. Late in the fourth quarter, Utah had that, and then some.
But costly mistakes sprinkled throughout the game ended up being too much for the Utes to overcome in a 28-23 road loss to Cal.
Here are my instant observations following the game.
4th down conversions helped some, but one miss hurt down the stretch
Utah's streak of consecutive 4th down conversions grew to 9-9 on the season, with Zack Moss and Armad Shyne teaming up for 4-4 early on against Cal.
