SALT LAKE CITY – Utah Football will celebrate senior night as they host the Iowa State Cyclones in the last home game of the 2024 season.
Both sides enter the matchup with something at stake. The Utes need to win out in order to be bowl-eligible. The Cyclones are still in the race for the Big 12 title game but a late-season loss would likely dash those hopes.

3rd and 7 and ISU is short but it looks like they’ll go for it on 4th and 2…

Utah stops the drive, ISU will settle for a field goal…. And it’s blocked but flags are done.
Utah flagged for holding and it’s an automatic 1st down.— Steve Bartle (@BartleKSLsports) November 24, 2024
Iowa State gets it into the end zone on a slant route. Lots of frustration over that defensive holding call.

I haven’t seen a good look of the defensive holding penalty. But maybe someone had their phone out recording it?

Some things are just meant to be… 87 yards the other way. Incredible play by Barton and Vaughn at the end to provide the last block to get Barton into the end zone.
