SALT LAKE CITY — It’s one of those games Utah would like to erase from its memory, but the thought remains like a bad taste in the mouth. And head coach Kyle Whittingham isn’t ready for any of his offensive staff to forget about it.
“The message with no uncertain terms is: we’ve got to get a lot better on offense if we’re going to have a chance to win many more games this year,” he told ESPN 700 following the game. “That wasn’t good enough.”
Utah managed 354 yards of total offense but only came away with 7 points from the offensive staff in a 17-6 win over host Northern Illinois.
