Utah's defense showed that should be one of the best in the MWC on Saturday. Sean Smith had a key interception and Paul Kruger was all over the field at his D-End position.

Hard to tell if Michigan was that bad on offense or if the Ute defense is that strong. Michigan never sustained a full drive the entire game. Utah made some key mistakes on defense that allowed Michigan to move down the field and they gave up on big pass play for a TD, but other than that, I was impressed with their performance.
