Can John White IV get the job done at running back?
What about Utah's new starting secondary?
Will the focus really be on Montana State and not next week's Pac-12 opener at USC?
After months of anticipation, the answers will soon be revealed.
Ready or not, it's time to kick things off.
"Hopefully, we'll handle it well," Wynn said.

Just because BYU has lost 6 times to Montana State, one shouldn't assume that Utah will.
In this kind of game, you have much to gain so you play the game, run your schemes and make adjustments MSU is better than 6 teams on some other team's schedule.
It's game day. Get up!
3 things I wish for this season:
1) Healthy --no major injuries
2) At least 10 wins --including USC and BYU
3) All Utes (players, coaches and fans) have fun
Go Utes, have a great season!
