SALT LAKE CITY — Utah dialed up a late-game touchdown to put away USC Friday night and to remain undefeated this season. The come-from-behind victory helped Utah’s case as it moved up in this week’s college football rankings.

Utah moved up to No. 18 in the USA Today Amway Coaches Poll, jumping up five spots from last week's No. 23 ranking.

Joining Utah in the rankings from the Pac-12 is Stanford, who also needed a late-game touchdown to beat UCLA, and Washington, who narrowly got by Arizona in overtime. Stanford is ranked No. 6, followed by Washington at No.
