In the training room after the game, with his leg encased in a brace, Hancock criticized Utah defensive back Cedric Crawford for what he considered a "cheap shot."

The injury occurred on a third-and-six play at the BYU 42. Forced out of the pocket, Hancock tried to get a first down but was hit just as he reached the sideline. "He went after my knees," Hancock said. "Then he stood there laughing. It wasn't very classy at all.

"That just exemplifies Utah," he continued. "We had the game put away, and if they want to take cheap shots, I guess that's their prerogative."
