In the fourth quarter, Chenault picked off Wilson and returned it 30 yards to the Colorado 22-yard line with 5:09 remaining.

Three plays later, Dampier saw Pegan open in the middle of the field and hit him for a 6-yard score to make it 27-17 with 3:43 to play.

The Buffaloes rallied with Wilson throwing a 2-yard scoring pass to Moore to cut the Utah lead to three with 1:21 remaining.

Colorado later took over possession with 56 seconds left and its final play was Wilson's incomplete heave into the end zone.

They got on the board on the third play of the quarter when Smith caught a short pass from Wilson at his own 35-yard line and broke two tackles while completing a 68-yard scoring play.

Colorado then went ahead 14-13 when Taylor took a pitch from Wilson and scored from the 18 with 9:45 left in the third quarter.
