The Utes (6-1, 3-1 Pac-12) are coming off a 34-32 victory over USC in Los Angeles on Saturday. Injuries have continued to be an issue, but Utah just keeps winning regardless.
Oregon (6-1, 3-1 Pac-12) rebounded nicely from its first loss of the season and handled business against Washington State at Autzen Stadium, winning 38-24.
It’ll be the second time this season Oregon has been featured on GameDay and the third time a Pac-12 team has hosted. Colorado hosted GameDay in Week 3 against Colorado State, and Washington hosted in Week 7 for the top-10 matchup with the Ducks.
Kickoff between the Utes and the Ducks is set for 12:30 p.m. PT on FOX next Saturday.
