The Big 12 announced Monday that Utah has been named the conference's Offensive Line of the Week. Nicknamed the Wasatch Front, the group assisted the Utes in totaling 545 yards of offense during a 41-24 victory over Kansas.
During the win over Kansas, Utah recorded a season-high 31 first downs. The team also achieved both a 100-yard rusher and a 100-yard receiver for the first time this season. This performance marked the second time this season the team has surpassed 500 total yards of offense, and the third game in which Utah exceeded 450 yards.
Pro Football Network graded left tackle Zereoue Williams an 86.5 for the week. This grade led all Big 12 players at the position and ranked sixth in FBS.
Utah has scored 30 or more points in each of its first five games this season, a feat the program has not accomplished since 1994.
Utah is scheduled to play Colorado on Saturday, Oct. 17, with an 8:15 p.m. MT kickoff. The game will be broadcast on ESPN.
