What Utah’s 33-0 Shutout Revealed About the Utes | Big 12 Power Rankings

Utah football improved to 3-0 with a 33-0 shutout of Utah State, but the final score doesn’t tell the entire story.

Steve Bartle and Josh Bennett break down Devon Dampier’s impressive decision-making, Braden Pegan’s breakout performance and why Utah struggled to generate consistent movement in the run game. Was the offensive line the problem, or did Utah State’s aggressive defensive approach deserve more credit?

They also examine another dominant performance from Utah’s defense, the emergence of Rabbit Evans and a linebacker group that continues to exceed expectations.

Then, it’s time for the Utah Blockcast Big 12 Power Rankings. Utah, BYU and Texas Tech lead the championship conversation—but which team has earned the No. 1 spot through three weeks?
