Ute receiver Derrick Vickers is having a good year and is eager to atone for his fumble at Washington

Utah's football players usually just lift weights to start their weekly routine, but because the Utes had last weekend off, they took the field Monday afternoon. Coach Kyle Whittingham liked the players' response, saying they returned to practice eagerly.

The flaw of Utah’s schedule, from his perspective, is having to live for two weeks with his lost fumble that delayed the Utes’ comeback in a 33-28 win at Washington. He enjoyed another victory during a rewarding season that stemmed from the NCAA’s giving him an extra year of eligibility, but Vickers has stewed about what happened after his only reception in Seattle.
