No. 12 Utah is set to host Kansas at Rice-Eccles Stadium on Saturday night, but it won’t start at its original 10:15 p.m. ET time.

According to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, the Utah vs. Kansas game is moving up to 6 p.m. MT (8 p.m. ET) because Utah is dealing with storms associated with Tropical Storm Rachel.

“Utah’s game with Kansas is moving to 6 p.m. MST, up by two hours and 15 minutes. Utah is dealing with storms associated with Tropical Storm Rachel,” Thamel wrote Friday on X.

The Utes Are Looking For Their Second Big 12 Win of the Season

Utah is looking to start the season 5-0 with a win over Kansas. The Utes got a big win two weeks ago when they knocked off Iowa State for their first Big 12 win of the season, and they are well-rested after a bye week.

After playing Kansas, the Utes will travel to Colorado, then host No. 22 Houston before heading to Cincinnati. They return home on Nov. 7 to host No. 8 BYU.

The Utah vs. BYU game could be crucial, as the winner may secure a spot in the Big 12 title game against Texas Tech, the clear conference favorite.

BYU is hosting Iowa State on Friday night and will then welcome No. 3 Notre Dame on Oct. 17. After playing at UCF, it will host Arizona State before facing Utah. The Cougars will likely be undefeated in Big 12 play when they meet Utah in early November.
