In their third season under head coach Ray Nagel, the Utes compiled an overall record of 7–3 with a mark of 5–1 against conference opponents, placing third in the Skyline. Home games were played on campus at Ute Stadium in Salt Lake City. Utah was led on the field by senior quarterback Terry Nofsinger. Conference foe New Mexico was not played in 1960, so Utah finished a half game behind co-champions Utah State and Wyoming in the standings. The Utes denied the undefeated Aggies an outright title and a perfect regular season with a 6–0 shutout in the conference finale on November 19 in Salt Lake City.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=_DQxAAAAIBAJ&sjid=a0kDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6729%2C4710632 Deseret News Salt Lake City, Utah Miller Hack Utes subdue Aggies November 21, 1960 1C For the second straight year, Utah did not face longtime rival Colorado; the teams met in 1961 and 1962, then the series went on hiatus until 2011, when both schools joined the Pac-12 Conference.
