The Utes are rounding into form at just the right time.
There are two weeks remaining in the regular season but three weeks until Pac-12 coaches cast their votes for post-season awards.We see a wide-open race for Coach of the Year that reflects the state of play atop the conference: USC’s Lincoln Riley, UCLA’s Chip Kelly, Oregon’s Dan Lanning, Washington’s Kalen DeBoer and Utah’s Kyle Whittingham all have a path to the honor.
The list of contenders for Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year is lengthy, as well, with one tailback, UCLA’s Zach Charbonnet, joining the four quarterbacks in contention: Oregon’s Bo Nix, Washington’s Michael Penix, Jr., USC’s Caleb Williams and UCLA’s Dorian Thompson-Robinson. More clarity exists in the race for Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, with USC lineman Tuli Tuipulotu as the obvious frontrunner.in both sacks and tackles-for-loss and, in our opinion, has been the best player in the conference on either side of scrimmage.
Lesser cases could be made for Utah cornerback Clark Phillips III, ASU linebacker Kyle Soelle, Oregon cornerback Christian Gonzalez and WSU linebacker Daiyan Henley. As we approach the voting and subsequent announcement, be mindful that Pac-12 coaches have been known to get a tad political with their selections.
