SALT LAKE CITY — Utah capped its third week of spring football Friday with its first full scrimmage at Rice-Eccles Stadium, ready to show off a shiny new offense and a high-octane system.
It didn’t go quite up to par, though.
Head coach Kyle Whittingham said the new offense is about 70 percent installed, and quarterback Troy Williams and the first-team offense stalled regularly after a 10-yard touchdown run on fourth down.
The play of the day came when transfer Cooper Bateman tossed a 48-yard touchdown to Samson Nacua.
Yes, the Utes’ offense is still a work in progress — and so is the decision on a starting quarterback.
