Arkansas travels to face Utah in ranked college football matchup

The Arkansas Razorbacks head to Salt Lake City on September 12 to face No. 20 Utah in a non-conference matchup. Arkansas enters the game at 1-0 following a win against North Alabama, while Utah arrives with an identical record after defeating Idaho in its season opener. A primary point of focus for the Razorbacks involves improving a rushing attack that struggled to maintain momentum during the first week of play. Meanwhile, Arkansas defensive coordinator Ron Roberts indicated the team must force Utah into third-and-long situations to mitigate the effectiveness of the Utes' offense. The contest also features a featured one-on-one matchup between Arkansas cornerback Joker Johnson and Utah wide receiver Braden Pegan. Arkansas returns home next week to play Georgia in its first conference challenge of the season.
