Utah is 5-0 and has outgained every opponent by 408, 136, 292, 95, and 154 yards. It scores 42.8 points per game, sixth among the 138 FBS teams, and allows 13, also sixth. It beat Kansas 41-24 last Saturday on 545 yards and held the ball 39.1 minutes. This season, the Utes gain 502 yards per game and allow 285, and they hold the ball 33 minutes a game. It has taken the ball away seven times and lost it four. Colorado is 2-3, scoring 18.6 points per game (122nd) and allowing 25.4 (85th). Its two wins were 14-13 at Georgia Tech and 52-21 over Weber State, and its losses were 41-7 at Northwestern, 23-13 at Baylor and 29-7 against Texas Tech. It last played October 3, so it comes off a two-week break. It has lost the ball 11 times in five games, four in each of the Northwestern and Texas Tech games. Colorado has scored 14 or fewer in four of its five games. I'm on Utah to cover.
