Utah football game guide:

Opposing Coach • Welcome to your first game as head coach, Demario Warren. You get a team that went 10-3 last year. He’s only in his early 30s, but Warren knows the drill, having coached SUU’s defense last year in a strong performance despite a 12-9 loss to Utah State (the winning touchdown was on a punt return). The first African American head coach at a Utah Division I school, Warren hails from UC Davis, and was hired by former SUU coach Ed Lamb almost by accident. But Warren proved himself starting in the secondary, and eventually helped groom NFL Draft picks Miles Killebrew and LeShaun Sims.
