This fall’s University of Utah vs. Utah State football game at Rice-Eccles Stadium, originally scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 12, has been rescheduled to Friday, Sept. 11.
In a news release sent out to the media on Monday, U of U Athletics stated the reason the game has been moved to Friday, Sept. 11 was to "accommodate a request of the Pacific-12 Conference Office and its television partners."
Utah vs. USU will kick off at 7 p.m. local time on Friday, Sept. 11, and the game is expected to be televised live to a national audience on a network to be announced later.
