Utah rolls over UCLA 41-10 behind Moss’ career night By DAN GREENSPAN Associated Press PASADENA, Calif. — Zack Moss rushed for a career-high 211 yards and scored three touchdowns, helping No. 23 Utah beat UCLA 41-10 on Friday night. Britain Covey had 132 all-purpose yards and threw a touchdown pass for the Utes (6-2, 4-2 Pac-12), who won their fourth consecutive game. Armand Shyne ran for a touchdown and Matt Gay kicked two field goals. Joshua Kelley ran for 90 yards and a touchdown, but the Bruins (2-6, 2-3) were unable to get their third straight win. Wilton Speight was 20 of 40 for 164 yards passing. Utah scored 28 straight points after falling behind 7-3 in the first quarter. Covey threw a 7-yard touch- down pass to tight end Cole Fotheringham off a reverse to make it 10-7 midway through the second quarter, and Moss had 1-yard touch- down runs in the second and third quarter. Shyne’s 2-yard touch- down run made it 31-7 after Julian Blackmon picked off Speight, who started for the first time since suffering a back injury in the season opener against Cincinnati. Kelley had a 25-yard touchdown run on fourth- and-inches in the first quar- PAC-12 FOOTBALL Utah UCLA 41 10 ter to give UCLA an early lead, but the Bruins defense could not keep Moss and Utah’s rushing offense in check. Utah finished with 325 yards on the ground and averaged 6.5 yards per carry. Utah safety Marquise Blair was ejected for target- ing in the third quarter and will miss the first half at Ari- zona State. Blair made hel- met-to-helmet contact with Speight when he was sliding at the end of an 11-yard run. The takeaway Utah: The Utes avoided the letdown that has kept them from winning the Pac- 12 South in previous sea- sons. Utah had followed home wins over Southern California in 2014 and 2016 with road losses, but there was no such slip-up this sea- son. If Utah can maintain dominant play on both sides of the line of scrimmage for three more conference games, coach Kyle Whit- tingham will finally reach the Pac-12 title game for the first time on Nov. 30. UCLA: The Bruins still have work to do. Consec- utive wins might have cre- ated the impression UCLA had turned the corner in Chip Kelly’s first season, but there were too many drops, penalties and missed tack- les to take advantage when Utah appeared vulnerable early on. Poll implications With a fourth straight impressive win, Utah will be in the Top 25 for the second straight week. A resume that includes narrow losses to No. 15 Washington and No. 14 Washington State might also get a closer examina- tion from voters. Up next Utah: At Arizona State on Saturday, Nov. 3.

DAWGS: Hermiston will play crossover game next week Continued from 1B the Braves up 13-12. Herm- iston’s next drive ended abruptly when a James pass was picked off, and Kami- akin drove to the 4-yard line. Hermiston held them up on three plays, but on fourth down quarterback Lucas Castilleja found Niko Wiltz in the back of the end zone to give Kamiakin a 20-12 lead which it took into the half as rain began to fall. Hermiston tied the game 20-20 in the third quarter on an Andrew James keeper, and he added a 2-point conver- sion on the ground. Altahir scored on a 63-yard run to put Kamiakin back on top, and scored again with 2:47 left to extend that lead. A pivotal play happened between the scores when a Kamiakin punt hit a member of Hermiston’s return team in the back, giving the ball right back to the Braves. Despite the bad bounce and back- to-back scores, Hermiston fought back hard. “I’m proud of our guys for bouncing back,” James said. “We could have quit. It would have been the eas- iest thing to quit right there, but we came back and made it a game. That makes me happy.” A screen pass to Wyatt Noland was the capper on the next drive and put Hermiston within reach at 34-27, and the defense forced a punt to keep the game interesting. “Football is like life,” Fae- teete told his team after the game. “Just as everything is going great, it punches you in the face. The lessons we learn from football is an opportu- nity to end the season right. It’s not the end of the road.” Hermiston will play in a district crossover game next weekend to end its first sea- son in the Washington con- ference. James, while disap- pointed to miss the playoffs in his senior season, said he felt good about the first campaign. “We showed we could do in Hermiston and we set the stage for all the classes com- ing up,” he said. ——— Hermiston Bulldogs (6-3, 5-3) vs. Kamiakin Braves (5-4, 5-3) Kamiakin 0 20 0 14 34 Hermiston 3 9 8 7 27 1st 7:36 – HHS Juan Carlos Navarette 31 yard field goal 3-0 2nd 9:55 – HHS Youbani Razon 3 yard reception from Andrew James (Navarette PAT) 10-0 8:55 – KHS Tuna Altahir 2 yard rush (Kaden Shymanski PAT blocked Jordan Ramirez) 6-10 5:21 – HHS Cody WIzner sack of punter Caesar Salas for safety 12-6 2:11 – KHS Altahir 43 yards (Shymanski PAT) 13-12 0:19 – KHS Niko Wiltz 3 yards reception from Lucas Castilleja (Shymanski PAT) 20-12 3rd 4:53 – HHS James 5 yard rush (James 2 pt rush) 20-20 4th 10:56 – KHS Altahir 63 yard rush (Shymanski PAT) 27-20 2:47 – KHS Altahir 11 yard rush (Shymanski PAT) 34-20 2:13 – HHS Noland 18 yard reception from James (Navarette PAT) 27-34 Staff photo by E.J.
