FORT WORTH, Texas, Dec. 24 (UPI) -- Louie Sakoda's four field goals helped Utah defeat Tulsa, 25-13, in the Armed Forces Bowl in Texas Saturday.
Brett Ratliff threw for 240 yards with a touchdown and an interception for the Utes (8-5), who are a perfect 6-0 in bowl games since 1999. Eric Weddle rushed for 56 yards and a touchdown, and also intercepted Tulsa quarterback Paul Smith on the last play of the game.
Smith finished with 158 yards passing while running for two scores for the Golden Hurricane (8-5), who were making back-to-back post-season appearances for the first time since 1964-65.
