Utah athletic director Mark Harlan was not pleased with the Utes' 22–21 loss to the No. 9 BYU Cougars on Saturday.

Harlan questioned multiple calls while speaking to the media in a post-game press conference, but didn't specify which calls he was referencing. However, one penalty that caused an uproar on social media was a holding penalty on Utah cornerback Zemaiah Vaughn with 1:29 remaining in the contest. BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff was sacked on the same play, which would've effectively ended the game. Instead, the Cougars continued down the field and made a field goal.
