The Utah Utes and the Colorado Buffaloes will clash from Boulder this afternoon.
Utah begins the contest with a record of 4-5. The Utes will need to win two more games earn a bowl bid. The last time Utah has had a losing season was in 2013.
Head coach Kyle Whittingham has done an outstanding job since taking over this program. Utah is coming off a heartbreaking home loss against BYU. The loss was controversial as Utah appeared to win the game on fourth down, but a holding call kept the final BYU drive alive.
The Cougars went on to make a game-winning field goal and knock off the Utes. Utah will attempt to earn its biggest win of the season today.
