Description

Off a bye week, Utah football looks to build some momentum after a dominant win in West Virginia.


But the next two weeks, specifically, will test the Utes against ranked opponents. So how is the team looking going into a game against Arizona State?


Host Josh Furlong breaks down the bye week talking points, including a conversation about whether Byrd Ficklin should redshirt and whether he's QB2 for the rest of the season.


He also assesses the team at the midway point of the season to see where things have gone well and where it can improve.
