Despite the shutdown, construction at the University of Utah’s Rice-Eccles Stadium has moved forward toward its target completion date prior to the 2021 football season. The $80 million upgrade will expand the stadium’s south end, add premium seating, and create a facility called the Ken Garff Performance Zone. In addition, the 2002 Olympic cauldron will be refurbished and housed in a structure just outside the stadium. — Deseret News
