Utah Utes 2016 Schedule Breakdown

The PAC-12 schedule tour moves on to the SLC and the Utes:

9/1 Southern Utah
9/10 BYU
9/17 at San Jose State
9/23 USC
10/1 at California
10/8 Arizona
10/15 at Oregon State
10/22 at UCLA
10/29 Washington
11/10 at Arizona State
11/19 Oregon
11/26 Colorado

Notes: The Utes open fairly easy with a solid win over Big Sky member Southern Utah. The BYU game is a tough one, but edge goes to the Utes at home. The Utes should roll at San Jose State. The month ends up with a home loss to USC. Utah starts out 3-1.
October is a solidly tough month. I see Utah beating Cal, but falling to Arizona. I see a win over Oregon State, but I also see losses to UCLA and Washington. Utah could be 5-4 at the end of October.
November is not horribly bad, as I see wins over Arizona State and Colorado, but a home loss to Oregon.
Overall Projected Record: 7-5
