Utah's football team is poised for a strong 2025-26 season, led by highly rated players including Spencer Fano, who is ranked as the top right tackle in EA Sports' College Football 26 video game with a 94 overall rating. Fano, an All-American and the top returning offensive lineman per Pro Football Focus, anchors an offensive line that also features left tackle Caleb Lomu with a 90 rating. Key offensive contributors include quarterback Devon Dampier and running back Wayshawn Parker, while the defense is led by free safety Tao Johnson and linebacker Lander Barton. The Utes have also secured a commitment from four-star offensive tackle recruit Obot, ranked among the top offensive tackles nationally for the 2026 class, further bolstering their offensive line depth. Utah's 2026 recruiting class is ranked 58th nationally and 12th in the Big 12, with Obot being the highest-ranked recruit and the only four-star commit in the class. These developments signal Utah's intent to remain competitive in college football, building on a foundation of strong player ratings and promising recruits.
