Utah Utes Move Up in Latest AP Top 25 College Football Poll.
UtahThis week included three major upsets that would shuffle the AP Top 25. The No. 1, No. 6 and No. 12 teams lost to lower-ranked Top 25 teams.
No. 23 Oregon beat No. 12 Ohio State by 13. No. 13 Tennessee beat No. 6 Kentucky, along with No. 11 Notre Dame dropping No. 1 Miami.
What did not happen is No. 3 Utah losing to No. 8 BYU. In arguably the most important Holy War of at least recent memory, Utah controlled for the most part.
Some of that was due to significant penalties and turnovers. Utah deserves credit for creating turnovers, but BYU did themselves no favors.
