Depth.
The main reason we lost to Utah last year.

I understand from others on CB that the Utes have a good team this year. They will also likely "see us coming"; I'm sure they're self-satisfied at overcoming a 20 point deficit, but if they're smart they'll worry that next time it won't happen and will be focused. I hope that additional focus will be offset by this being the first game: they've traditionally underperformed in their first game, coming from behind to beat patsies. It's our first game, too, but I'm thinking with our O-line and Zach having experience together it may not matter as much to the offense that it's the first game.

So, what I think is the main question: can our D hold on for longer than it did last year? That I don't know. We're missing a couple key guys from last year, and, if there are a couple injuries or, *gasp*, suspensions keeping our starters out of game 1, has our depth improved?
