Ducks-Utes Important Considerations

The importance of this game cannot be overstated.  The loser is essentially out of Playoff contention.  That's a shame as both these teams are solid in 2023.

Since 2018, Utah has only lost two games at home. 

"Big game in the conference picture," Utes coach Kyle Whittingham said his Monday news conference. "They're a one-loss team, as are we. Both our backs are to the wall. Hopefully it will be a great football game."

"This is gonna be a fun opponent," Oregon head coach Dan Lanning said. "A really good team, extremely well coached. They've done a phenomenal job of utilizing their personnel and have some really talented players on their team."

Utah has only lost to Oregon State but that was a bad one, 21-7.  The Ducks made it quite the game against Washington but ultimately fell on the wrong side of a 36-33 finish.

Oregon will come into this game ranked second in the nation for scoring. Quarterback Bo Nix has passed for 2,089 yards, 19 touchdowns and one interception this season. 

The Utes, on the other hand, rank 96th in scoring (23.4 ppg) and 98th in total offense (345.0 ypg).

The Utes are battling major injuries.  Linebacker Lander Barton suffered a season-ending injury while quarterback Cameron Rising and tight end Brant Kuithe are also done for 2023. Bryson Barnes has mostly taken over for Rising.

Oregon has won 10 of the past 15 meetings with the Utes.

Sagarin suggests a healthy Utah team would still be a +3 dog here.
