With seven minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the Utah Utes faced a 10-point deficit on Saturday against Kansas State, and a season-long effort of reaching the College Football Playoff looked bleak.
What happened over the next seven minutes was a testament to the Utes being one of the best teams in the country.
Utah begins its comeback with a score and a stop
That is often a term used in basketball rather than football, but it applied perfectly in this scenario.
Utah began its comeback with a 12-play, 75-yard drive that was capped off by a 20-yard passing touchdown from Devon Dampier to Larry Simmons. The touchdown for Simmons was his fourth on just 11 catches.
It then came time for the Utes defense to get a stop, which they did, forcing a three-and-out and a punt to get the ball back with 2:19 remaining.
