Utah Utes to host Arkansas Razorbacks in Week 2 matchup

The Arkansas Razorbacks are set to face the No. 21 Utah Utes on Saturday, September 12, 2026, at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City. The matchup features a clash between the SEC and Big 12, with Utah entering the game as a significant favorite following a dominant 66-14 victory over Idaho.

Utah's offense, led by quarterback Devon Dampier, has shown significant explosive potential, averaging 66 points per game in their opener. Arkansas defensive coordinator Ron Roberts noted that while the unit performed well in their 31-14 win against North Alabama, they face a daunting task against Utah's rushing attack and Dampier's dual-threat capabilities.

Betting markets currently favor Utah with a spread of approximately 12.5 to 13 points. The game is scheduled to be broadcast nationally on ESPN.
