Television star LeVar Burton is serving as the Tournament of Roses Grand Marshal, a role that comes with an important duty: the pregame coin toss. And he isn’t taking that duty lightly.
After nearly a month of waiting, the Rose Bowl is finally here. No. 11 Utah and No. 6 Ohio State are set to kick off at about 3:10 p.m. MT on ABC.
The Buckeyes are currently a 4-point favorite over the Utes, who are making their first ever appearance in the historic New Year’s Day bowl. But this Utes team isn’t worried about that. “I think it’s about climbing the ladder of national respect,” wide receiver Britain Covey said this week. “I feel like the University of Utah has done that in the past when we were BCS Busters. But it’s still difficult to be known as one of those premier programs, right? But I think we’re getting to the point where we could play anyone in the country and they would know what kind of game it’s going to be.
