We've had to wait almost a month since the Utes'last game. The bitter taste of defeat at the hands of the team down South was still in our mouths, but things would get better at the hands of the Pac 10. Utah has dominated bowl season winning it's last eight games. Wait, let's make that the last nine years with a tonight's Poinsettia Bowl win against Cal.
Tonight didn't start out as a march towards another December victory, with Utah in an early 14-0 hole courtesy of a pick six at the hands of Jordan Wynn. Still, the team fought back. After an ugly first quarter the Utes stormed their way into the game with twenty seven straight points. By the end of the third period the game was pretty much over. The Utes were ahead 27-14 and the defense was stopping Cal on every drive.
Even though the final was only a ten point margin 37-27, Utah dominated this game. We controlled the final three quarters and Wynn looked awesome (338 yards and 3 TDs). He is the future of the program for the next three years and the future is bright. We had ten wins this year, and this was a rebuilding season for Utah. Wow, I can't wait to see what's in store for the program next year. With games against Notre Dame, byu, and TCU it's going to be another exciting season for the Utes. I just hope Max Hall stops hating us by then....
