You should be tighter than your average from UTG anyway. While there's more in the pot after antes kick in, there are also more people still to act who can 3bet you off marginal hands, and a higher probability that when you do see the flop, it will be OOP.

That said, it's situational. For example, if your table is nitty, you can open up your range from all seats including UTG.
