Two-time defending Pac-12 South champion Utah will finally kick off the season this weekend against No. 20 USC.

The Utes had their opening two games canceled due to COVID-19 cases.

Utah’s game marks the latest opener for the Utes since 1895, when they played against the Salt Lake City YMCA squad on Nov. 28.

The Trojans have lost in their last three visits to Rice-Eccles Stadium.
