PROVO, Utah — BYU is just under 3 weeks away from taking the field against Utah in LaVell Edwards Stadium.

The Cougars held their first scrimmage on Saturday, and Head Coach Kalani Sitake says he's impressed by the offensive line and running backs, while their offensive coordinator says there's a couple freshman standing out and rising to the occasion.

Quarterback Zach Wilson was most excited to see graduate transfer Ty'son Williams play, and Wilson—along with Sitake—said he has confidence in the backs.

BYU will scrimmage again this Saturday, as they prepare to face the Utes on August 29.
