SALT LAKE CITY — It’s first-and-goal on the 2-yard line against UCLA, down 10-6 in the third quarter and Utah decides upon the read-option for the score. Travis Wilson fakes the handoff to Joe Williams as Wilson keeps it in an attempt to scramble off the edge.
Nothing.
Wilson is sniffed out and tackled for a loss of yards, all while Williams seemingly could have walked into the end zone. Utah fails to get a touchdown on two more attempts and settles for a field goal — a conservative approach, despite three previous failures on the goal line while trailing at home.
