Washington had a chance to put Utah firmly in its rearview mirror.
The No. 5 Huskies led the No. 18 Utes 33–28 Saturday with 30 seconds left in the third quarter. Washington linebacker Alphonzo Tuputala snagged an interception and seemed headed for paydirt. This was it—the moment the Huskies would pull away from one of the Pac-12's peskiest outfits...
...until Tuputala dropped the ball at the goal line. Not only did he drop the ball early, Tuputala dropped it well short of the goal line, and Utah offensive lineman Michael Mokofisi jumped on it to hand possession back to the Utes.
