SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Reggie Dunn returned a kickoff 100 yards for the third time in two weeks and John White rushed for 101 yards and two touchdowns as Utah defeated Washington State 49-6 Saturday.

The loss was the sixth straight for Washington State (2-7, 0-6 Pac-12), assuring coach Mike Leach of his first losing season.

Utah (4-5, 2-4) has won two straight.

White also caught an 18-yard TD pass as Utah scored on five first-half possessions and led 31-0 at halftime.

Dunn opened the second half with his school-record fourth career 100-yard return. He had an NCAA-record two 100-yard kickoff returns last week.

Utah freshman Travis Wilson completed 17 of 21 passes for 171 yards, with two touchdowns and an interception.

Washington State's Jeff Tuel was 23 of 45 for 232 yards, with a 5-yard TD pass to Kristoff Williams on the game's final play. Tuel was intercepted, fumbled and sacked six times.
