Utah’s Dumbest Flaw is Also It’s Most Fatal
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Heading into the 2019 season, expectations are higher for Utah football than they have ever been during Utah’s time in the Pac-12 Conference. The Utes are the defending champions for the South Division and enter the season with the best odds of any Pac-12 South team to win the conference.
There have been very few seasons where expectations have been this high for the program before the season has begun. Utah is poised to have the team’s highest AP Poll Preseason ranking in history. The Utes have never been ranked higher than No. 18 to start the season. That will likely change when the AP Top 25 is released.
