Utah Utes vs UCLA Bruins Match Player Stats On Oct 26, 2018

Junior running back Zack Moss established career highs of 211 yards and three touchdowns to help No. 23 Utah roll to a 41-10 victory over UCLA on Friday night in Pac-12 play at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.

Moss topped 100 yards for the fifth time this season and 10th time in his career as the Utes (6-2, 4-2) piled up 325 rushing yards while winning their fourth consecutive contest. Junior quarterback Tyler Huntley passed for 138 yards and was intercepted once, and sophomore receiver Britain Covey threw a touchdown pass as Utah scored 40 or more points for the fourth straight game.

UCLA junior running back Joshua Kelley scored a touchdown and rushed for 90 yards after topping 100 in each of the four previous games. Senior quarterback Wilton Speight passed for 164 yards and two interceptions as the Bruins (2-6, 2-3) had a two-game winning streak snapped.
