After Cam Rising’s late scratch for the University of Utah’s 21-17 win at Washington State on Thursday night, the All-Pac-12 quarterback’s status for Saturday’s visit from Arizona is officially unknown.
Utah Utes quarterback Cameron Rising as the University of Utah hosts USC, NCAA football in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022.After Cam Rising’s late scratch for the University of Utah’s 21-17 win at Washington State on Thursday nightAlthough, head coach Kyle Whittingham offered enough tea leaves on Monday morning to have one believe the 12th-ranked Utes will have Rising at their disposal.
In between Oct. 17 and Thursday, Whittingham on Monday indicated that Rising was on track to start against the Cougars, but suffered a setback on Thursday. While the circumstances surrounding the setback are murky, Whittingham did offer that it occurred before the team arrived at the stadium, not having anything to do with practice during the week.
“We hope so, we certainly hope so,” Whittingham said when asked if he expects Rising to play against the Wildcats.All-Pac-12 tight end Dalton Kincaid injured his shoulder late in the third quarter on an incomplete pass from Barnes. Two plays later on first-and-goal from the 5, Barnes and Kincaid connected on a touchdown pass off a bubble screen, but Kincaid took a shot to the right shoulder in the process.
The other big injury situation is Micah Bernard, who had been playing banged up for weeks, which reached a tipping point vs. USC. Bernard warmed up and had three carries, but was very limited in what he was able to do. “I disagree with it, I think the NFL has it right,” Whittingham said in terms of the letter of the law being applied to a targeting penalty/ejection. “If you watch tape, which I’m sure some of you might, there’s probably 100 targetings throughout the course of a game.
