SALT LAKE CITY — Football is back this week with the University of Utah kicking off fall camp on Friday.
Fall camp comes a week earlier this year after the NCAA adopted a new policy in April that eliminates two-a-day practices, citing safety reasons. The change allows for an extra week of practices to make up for the lost time.
Utah is heading into its seventh season in the Pac-12 with significant turnover for both its offensive and defensive teams. The university had a record eight players drafted to the NFL, including first-round pick Garett Bolles.
