Utes defender rumbled to the end zone giving his team the lead
Utah linebacker Lander Barton delivered a game-changing moment to put the Utes ahead 10-7 in the second quarter against No. 22 Iowa State. With 11:53 remaining before halftime and Iowa State driving deep into Utah territory, Barton intercepted Cyclones quarterback Rocco Becht and returned it 87 yards for a touchdown. The spectacular play electrified the Rice-Eccles Stadium crowd and gave the Utes momentum in their quest to snap a six-game losing streak.
Barton’s interception showcased his elite instincts and athleticism. As Becht dropped back to pass, Barton read the play perfectly, stepping in front of a crossing route to snag the ball. Once he secured the interception, Barton’s speed and determination took over. He eluded multiple would-be tacklers, weaving down the sideline for a thrilling pick-six that shifted the game’s energy in Utah’s favor.
