The Utah Utes put forth a very commendable effort last year after going through their dream season of 2004. Only nine starters returned to last year's squad, yet new head coach Kyle Whittingham was able churn out seven wins and another bowl victory with this group.

The offense is loaded with skill at the quarterback position, and any of the three candidates can step into the four wide receiver set offense and succeed. The offensive line's retooled but has experience, but someone must stand out to be the go to wide receiver and every down back. The Utah Utes racked up tons of yardage last season, but didn't convert it into many points. They still averaged 30 points per game, but had an inexplicably high offensive yards per play average of 15.8. If the unit limits its turnovers, expect it to flourish. 


Defensively, there's question marks up front and the linebacker corps loses its top tackler, but the secondary is loaded with talent and boasts the Mountain West Conference Defensive Player of the Year in cornerback Eric Weddle whose a lockdown cover man for the Utes.
