Not necessarily. Even if Utah wins out (including a victory over California), the Utes could still finished tied with the Bears (@ 12-6). However, if that were the case (Cal is currenlty 9-5 in conference while Utah is 8-6), that would mean that Cal would have defeated Oregon. Utah CANNOT have that happen because if Cal does beat Oregon in Berkeley, Utah would lose the tie-breaker to the Bears via Cal splitting against Oregon and Utah getting swept by them (assuming Oregon finishes ahead of both Utah and Cal). It is mathematically impossible now for Utah to finish ahead of Oregon because the Ducks already have 12 conference wins and Utah already has 6 conference losses because Utah lost the tie-breaker to Oregon 2-0. Both Cal and Utah were swept by Arizona and UCLA, so, the likely tie-breaker would be their records against Oregon.
