Washington 31 Utah 14
The Huskies used a big 3rd half to build an insurmountable lead against the Running Utes to spoil Homecoming and the fist home PAC-12 game for Utah. Keith Polk rushed for 189 yards and the Husky offensive line took control of the game from the Utes. The Ute offense, on the other hand, was held to a mere 17 yards on the ground. Utah also committed 5 turnovers, which led to 17 Husky points. In short writing, what Utah did to BYU 2 weeks ago, Washington did to Utah tonight.
Utah MVP: QB Jordan Wynn
Eastern Washington 27 Weber State 21
The defending national champions kept their very slim post-season hopes alive by getting their first win of 2011. They took a 24-7 lead into the locker room, and then held off a WSU 2nd half rally. The game could have turned to the Wildcats favor for good when Davin Pugh intercepted Bo Levi Mitchell in the end zone with 12:53 remaining, but the Eagle defense stiffened and forced Weber State to punt from midfield. After the Eagles punted back, Weber drove down inside the EWU 17 yard line where the game was saved by Charles Moetului sacked Mike Hoke on a 2nd down play and forced a fumble. It was Hoke's first turnover as the Weber State starting quarterback. He still has yet to toss an interception.
Weber State MVP: WR Shaydon Kehano
North Dakota 26 Southern Utah 20
After a nightmare of a first quarter, the SUU attempt to rally at home against the Fighting Sioux was snuffed out when Daryl Brown intercepted Brad Sorensen in the end zone with 17 seconds remaining. The Sioux took a 16-0 lead in the first quarter and then held on for the victory. Statistically, the game was dominated by the Thunderbirds, but in the category that counted, the Sioux took an early lead and never trailed. North Dakota struck first, after pinning the Thunderbirds on their own 2 yard line, they held SUU for a 3-and-out and forced a fumble on the ensuing punt in the end zone which was recovered by SUU for a safety.
SUU MVP: QB Brad Sorensen
