The Utah Utes completely dominated the game right from the first quarter. At the halftime whistle, they secured a 43-0 lead. Coach Prime's team finally got itself on the scoreboard in the fourth quarter. This was after quarterback Ryan Staubb scored a rushing touchdown, followed by Alejandro Mata converting the extra point.

Utah quarterback Byrd Ficklin ended the night completing 10 of 22 passes for 140 yards and three total touchdowns. On the other hand, Kaidon Salter completed 9 of 22 passes for 37 yards before being replaced by Staub.

Deion Sanders takes responsibility for humiliating 53-7 loss against Utah

In the post-game press conference, Deion Sanders was "dumbfounded" with the way his team lost on Saturday.

"This is bad. This is probably the worst beating I've ever had except when my momma whopped me as a kid," Coach Prime said. "Sometimes, you are just dumbfounded man. You just look at this day and say, 'Wow, what happened? There's no way?'"

He also took responsibility for the loss and highlighted that they will try to improve their game going forward.

"It start's with me," Coach Prime added. "It starts with the coaching staff. Let's forget the guys for a minute. Let's start at the top. I'm trying to figure that one out. I really am."

The Buffs are next scheduled to face the Arizona Wildcats on Nov.1
