UH saw a 10-point lead erased in the second half and couldn't come through with chances to take the lead or tie en route to a tough loss to Utah.
The University of Houston's defense struggled to contain Utah's offense in a 21-13 loss at Rice-Eccles Stadium. The No. 14 Cougars fell behind early, as No. 10 Utah's stable of backs and quarterback Devon Dampier controlled the game in the second half. UH threw four incompletions on their final drive, ultimately failing to secure a victory. Dampier led Utah with 354 total yards and three touchdowns, extending their nation's longest active winning streak to 13.
