Scrimmage to Highlight Week 3
The Utes will hold their first scrimmage of the spring on Friday, Mar. 31 at 4 p.m. The scrimmage will be played in Rice-Eccles Stadium and is open to the public.
 
Camp Notes
While the Utes did some scripted live work at practice last Saturday, the 80-play scrimmage this Friday, Mar. 31 will emphasize live situational play … The offensive line, which must replace four starters, is "still a work in progress" other than veteran returners Salesi Uhatafe, Jackson Barton and Lo Falemaka, according to Coach Kyle Whittingham. Whittingham added that he is confident eight to nine players will be prepared to contribute on the offensive line by fall … First-team All-America punter Mitch Wishnowsky is punting well … The starting place kicker won't be determined until fall camp when scholarship freshman Chayden Johnston joins sophomore Hayes Hicken and JC transfer Cristian Antezana in the competition to replace four-year starter Andy Phillips … Defensively, Whittingham says Chase Hansen, Kavika Luafatasaga and Bradlee Anae have stood out.
