The team had planned to leave Wednesday for Utah, “at least in part due to an effort to minimize the team’s exposure to high altitude,” Gators head coach Billy Napier said he consulted with sports scientists to see how to handle Utah’s elevation. The original plan was for his team to leave on Wednesday and play the next day without much acclimation time.
