Live scores, highlights and updates from the Washington State vs. Utah football game

The Washington State Cougars haven't won a game against the Utah Utes since Sept. 29 of 2018, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Thursday. The Cougars and Utah will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 10 p.m. ET at Clarence D. Martin Stadium. The Utes should still be feeling good after a win, while Washington State will be looking to get back in the win column.

Washington State came up short against the Oregon State Beavers last week, falling 24-10. One thing holding Washington State back was the mediocre play of QB Cameron Ward, who did not have his best game: despite one touchdown, he threw one interception with a passing completion percentage of only 46.30%.

Meanwhile, Utah won a matchup that couldn't have been any closer, slipping by the USC Trojans 43-42. QB Cameron Rising went supernova for Utah as he passed for two TDs and 415 yards on 43 attempts in addition to rushing for three TDs and 60 yards. That was the first 300+ yard effort for Rising this season. Rising's sharp performance set his single-game rushing touchdown high for the season.

The Cougars are expected to lose this next one by 7.5. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past two games, so buyers beware.

Washington State is now 4-3 while the Utes sit at 5-2. Utah is 3-1 after wins this season, and Washington State is 1-1 after losses.
