The Utes barely escaped Spartan Stadium with a win Saturday night. They left relatively healthy, but the few injuries suffered could prove costly.

The football team pulled off a sloppy win over San Jose State, the women's soccer team lost by one goal and the volleyball team went 0-2 at the Santa Clara Tournament.

Extending the nation's longest winning streak to 16 games, the No. 17 Utes were given all they could handle from a San Jose State team that was coming off a 56-3 whooping at the hands of No. 3 USC a week ago.

Utah's offense got off to a quick start against Utah State on Sept. 3, scoring two touchdowns before first time starter Terrance Cain had an incomplete pass. But it was a different story in the Utes' first road game of the season Saturday night at Spartan Stadium.

After kicking off their season with a 15th straight win, the Utes will look to extend the nation's longest win streak to 16 on Saturday when they take on the San Jose State Spartans.

The San Jose State Spartans are looking to end the Utes' 15-game winning streak in both teams' second game of the season this weekend in California.

It was as simple as that. At one game, Ute supporter Terri Jackson was dancing to the Blues Brothers in the tailgating lot with the marching band, and at the next she was making her debut as "Crazy Lady" at Rice-Eccles Stadium in front of thousands of people.

Utah senior defensive tackle Kenape Eliapo will go head-to-head with his younger brother Saturday when the Utes take on San Jose State in their second game of the season.

Thirty years after graduating with a degree in audiology and deaf counseling from the University of Utah, Terri Jackson is still cheering on her alma mater at every home game. She has become a staple of University of Utah football, and fans inside the stadium look forward to her pre-4th quarter performance at every game.

As the first Saturday of the college football season came to a close with the highly anticipated match-up between BYU and the Oklahoma Sooners, I found myself in limbo.
