SALT LAKE CITY — It's a day Ute football fans have anticipated since last year's Las Vegas Bowl — game day.
With plenty of intrigue wrapped up in the matchup between Utah's team and the Harbaugh-coached Michigan Wolverines, fans began flooding Rice-Eccles Stadium early Thursday morning to cheer on their boys and tailgate amongst fellow fanatics.

Decked out in red and white, faces painted (and a few pets wearing headgear), Ute football enthusiasts showed their pride in anticipation of the big game.
