For Williams and the Trojans, it was back-to-back losses to Utah. USC’s first loss of the 2022 season came Oct. 15 at Utah, 43-42. The Trojans are expected to fall out of the College Football Playoff top 4 with Friday’s 47-24 loss.

For Utah it’s also back-to-back conference titles for the first time since 2003-2004 in the Mountain West under Urban Meyer. Kyle Whittingham, who has been Utah’s head coach since 2005, also lead the Utes to a Mountain West title in 2008.
