The Utes will close the regular season Saturday at Colorado, and getting back to the Pac-12 championship game is still a possibility.
With the expectations being what they were, a question: is a nine-win season good enough for Whittingham and the Utes at this point?
Whether or not Utah ends up in the Pac-12 championship game, a win on Saturday in Boulder will polish off a 9-3 regular season, including a 7-2 mark in the Pac-12. It would be the program’s fifth nine-win regular season in the last seven dating back to 2015. Of the 65 Power Five programs in the country, plus independent Notre Dame, only 20 of them either have at least nine wins, or are going for win No. 9. Specifically in the Pac-12, which currently has half of its teams ranked in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, including No. 14 Utah, three teams sit with at least nine wins, with another three aiming for No. 9 this weekend.
By the time Utah showed up in Pasadena last month, Kuithe was out for the season, and running back Tavion Thomas’ role had been reduced while dealing with personal issues. By the time the Utes showed up in Eugene, Rising had been dealing with a left knee issue for more than a month, while other injuries, severe or otherwise, to depth-chart players had mounted.
