Utah Rout Cincinnati 49-25: A 42-6 Halftime Lead, Two Defensive Scores and an 8-0 Start
No. 6 Utah won 49-25 at Cincinnati on October 31, leading 42-6 at halftime to stay unbeaten.
Utah scored on all four first-half offensive drives and added two defensive touchdowns — a fumble return and a 39-yard pick-six. Quarterback Devon Dampier completed 22 of 29 passes for 260 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 45 more; tight end Hunter Andrews caught two touchdown passes, including a 59-yarder in the third quarter.
Cincinnati outscored Utah 19-7 after halftime behind a Jacob Finley pick-six, 131 rushing yards from Cole Tabb and 263 passing yards from JC French IV, but the 36-point halftime gap was far too large. Utah outgained the Bearcats 534-456 before a crowd of 36,487.
Utah is 8-0 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12 and visits rival BYU on November 7. Cincinnati fell to 5-3 and 2-3 in the league and travels to Houston next. (Reporting by the Cincinnati Enquirer and Sportradar)
