Excerpt of The Departure by Michael Parker

  HOME

Saturday, January 01, 2005

Congratulations to the Runnin' Utes of the University of Utah! They have just handily defeated Pitt 35 to 7 in the Fiesta Bowl to place an exclamation point on their undeafeted season, the first one since 1930, their first Heisman Trophy candidate, and Urban Meyer's recognition as coach of the year.  

The Utah defensive line was ominous and deadly, getting to the Pitt quaterback Pilko 9 times, which set the record for sacks in a Fiesta Bowl game. 

This is a HUGE victory not only for the university but for the state of Utah and the Mountain West Conference!  This team and this win may have just paved the way for other teams in the conference to be invited to the BCS. 

Go UTES!
