All indications are he is a go Dallas. Onlyu said he looked good in practice all week. Maybe I’m being overly optimistic but its the perfect time to get him back and infuse some energy.

I think Reid will play. O’Toole may be a game time decision but I think he’s ready to go as well. Probably safe to say both are still a little banged up but I think they are ready.

Their run defense might have as much to do with who they have played as it does with their defense. The rushing offenses they have faced are ranked:

Wyoming – 117th
Mississippi State – 91st
Texas State – 61st
Texas Tech – 59th
Kansas – 22nd

Yeah, and that can be explained by the three trips to the redzone against Arizona and only coming away with 3 points.

That was pathetic.

We will be 7-1 going into the BYU game and BYU will be 5-3.

Good sir @Onlyu, always appreciate your insights. Are you able to comment on Reid and O’Toole’s status?

Game speed is always a little different. It will be interesting to see if ASU blitzes and puts pressure on him or drop back and make him throw the ball. I expect more TE and RB throws. Should be a nice test to see where he’s at.

Yep. Running game did not look good against Arizona, defense wasn’t great, and I have serious concerns about Rising’s timing with receivers. I’m also worried Cam is rushing back before he will be able to be fully effective as a passer.

Inject this into my veins!
FWIW, an alleged insider (who people seem to trust) on the Utah football subreddit has also hinted at 🌕. I don’t have any connection to this redditor, so don’t shoot the messenger; just passing along what I saw.

Just naming that game gets you in trouble now.

Yep, I also noted that in my previous comment. I feel we need to score at least 24 to have a good chance. Can our O (assuming Wilson starts) do that?

But does it matter if their scoring offense (#31) is significantly better than ours (#71)?! What is also concerning is that their rushing defense (#21) seems quite good.

One interesting stat (maybe the key stat?) is their rush defense. Rated higher than ours. That’s surprising and worrisome, especially if Wilson is our QB.

Overall, yes. But they have a slightly better RZ TD percentage than us.

We’ve had 22 RZ attempts with 11 TDs (50%). ASU has 24 RZ attempts and 13 TDs (54%).

I agree. He hasn’t played a full game in almost two years. They are better with him but he still might have some rust. If he plays and stays healthy the last few weeks of him not playing could pay dividends later in the season. Go UTES!

The Zip is a gametime decision.

Love me some maiden. I dig it! Bruce Dickenson is amazing.
