The final game of the nonconference schedule and the first game of Big 12 play will prove to be a pivotal early stretch for Utah football.
Host Josh Furlong returns with the next two games on Utah's schedule, with a road contest at Wyoming and home game against Texas Tech to start the conference slate.
The Cowboys are looking to bounce back from a poor season, while the Red Raiders are going all in on the 2025 season in an effort to win the conference. How Utah performs in these two games will be telling for the rest of the season.
Will Utah have what it takes to upend a Texas Tech squad with arguably the best roster on paper in the conference, or is Utah still a step behind after a dismal 2024 season?
Furlong also gives a brief update on the shifting College Football Playoff landscape, as well as an update on Utah's official visits.
