This week's football game between UCLA and Utah at the Rose Bowl has been pushed back a day, and will now be played Saturday night, the Pac-12 announced Sunday.
The move comes two days after Utah was forced to cancel its season opener against Arizona because the Utes did not have enough available scholarship players due to positive cases for COVID-19 and the resulting isolation and quarantine protocols for contact tracing.
"We greatly appreciate the understanding and flexibility of UCLA, the Pac-12 and our conference television rights holders to consider the challenges we have been working through over the past several days with regard to our recent increases in positive COVID-19 cases within our football program," Utah athletic director Mark Harlan said in a statement.
