Utah Football To Wear All Red Against Florida
Aug 28, 2023, 1:55 PM
SALT LAKE CITY – After announcing a “Red Out” for the fans, the Utes revealed they too will be wearing all red as they get ready to play host to the Florida Gators to open the 2023 season.
This uniform combination is primarily connected to the Utes’ rivalry game with BYU but will be seen from time to time for other big games. Hosting one of the marquee name brands in the SEC certainly qualifies as one.
Utah and Florida will only be meeting for the third time ever (1977 and 2022) with 2023 marking the Gator’s first trip out to Salt Lake City. Last season, the Utes came up one play short in the Swamp and will be hoping for a better result in front of their home crowd come Thursday night.
