No. 16 Utah hosts No. 17 Texas Tech on Saturday in an early marquee Big 12 matchup. Both teams have rolled through the first three weeks of the season undefeated and look for the upper hand. 

Texas Tech is looking to get to 4-0 for the first time since 2013. Quarterback Behren Morton is off to a scorching start. He’s tied for the lead in college football with 11 touchdowns this season. The Red Raiders rank second nationally in explosive play rate, trailing only USC. But Morton has yet to face an elite defense like Utah, which is allowing just 224 total yards per game and hasn’t given up more than 10 points in a contest. Morton and his receivers will need to be at their best against a Utes secondary that allows just 134 passing yards per game.

Utah wants to reestablish Rice-Eccles Stadium as one of the toughest venues in the country after going winless at home in Big 12 play last season. With College Football Playoff aspirations in play for both programs, this showdown is about national recognition as it is about the Big 12 title race.

Few storylines have been bigger in Salt Lake City than the arrival of new quarterback Devon Dampier and offensive coordinator Jason Beck. Through three games, Dampier has been nearly flawless by completing 73% of his passes with 628 yards and accounting for eight total touchdowns. He’s orchestrated an offense averaging 45.7 points per game, and Utah’s offensive line remains among the best in the country at both protecting the passer and finishing drives.

Needless to say, the transition for Beck and Dampier from New Mexico has been successful. However, this will be the biggest test for both the Utes coordinator and quarterback. 

Utah has been a dominant home team under Whittingham, boasting a 93-30 record at Rice-Eccles since 2005. Still, last season’s 0-4 mark at home in Big 12 play was a black eye. On the other hand, Texas Tech has thrived in the opening weeks but has yet to play outside of Lubbock in 2025.
