Cain threw touchdown passes of 8 and 47 yards. Robert Johnson had a career high three interceptions, two that led to second-half touchdowns for Utah (4-1 overall, 1-0 Mountain West).
Eddie Wide caught a touchdown pass and added a rushing score.
The temperature was 25 degrees at kickoff.
Leonard Mason ran for a career-high 130 yards. Grant Stucker had a touchdown pass, but was intercepted three times.
