Utah coach Kyle Whittingham promises some razzle-dazzle for the annual Red & White Game Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

Utah wraps up spring football today with the annual Red & White Game at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. Admission and parking are free. After the game, players will be available to sign autographs.
"There will be a little razzle-dazzle," said Utah coach Kyle Whittingham. "But it's still serious business."
Though the spring finale is traditionally a scaled-down version of what the Utes do offensively and defensively, Whittingham said it will give fans a good look at the team.
This year's contest will pit the ones against the twos. Whittingham said the decision to keep the starters intact will allow them to work together and provide continuity.
"You hope the ones win. We'll find out," said Whitingham. "We're not going to spot the twos any points this year. We're just going to let them play. We just want to see clean execution, sharp tackling and good possession of the football."
The format for this year's game will exclude kickoffs, kickoff returns and punt returns. The first two quarters will be 12-minutes long with normal stops. The second half will feature two 10-minute quarters and a running clock.THE ROSTERS:
