Utah Football: A Big Stage, A Big Response Needed | Houston First Look & Blockcast Mailbag

Utah is 6–0, but the Colorado escape left questions. Can the No. 10 Utes clean up their mistakes against No. 14 Houston with ESPN College GameDay in Salt Lake City?

In this episode:

• Utah’s opportunity on the national stage
• Defensive communication and assignment breakdowns
• Why Utah and Houston look so similar statistically
• Dampier’s development as an intermediate passer
• Mailbag: Utah’s energy, offensive play-calling, GameDay timing and the future quarterback room
