During Utah’s bye week, Whittingham emphasized that the veteran quarterback “wants to play worse than anybody.”

Coming off a disappointing 23-10 loss to Arizona last week, Utah’s offensive problems were exposed, especially in the passing game. Cam Rising has missed the last three and half games with injured fingers on his throwing hand against Baylor,

Utah quarterback Cam Rising will be a game-time decision ahead of the Utes’ matchup against Arizona on Saturday night, according to a report from ESPN’s Pete Thamel. Rising missed the last two games after suffering an injury to his throwing hand in Utah’s win against Baylor on Sept.

The touchdown to Kuithe was a bright spot, and just like he did against Utah State, Wilson settled in during the second quarter and completed 9 of 10 passes during a stretch. He’s shown the ability to make high-level throws above his experience level, and despite the interceptions, Wilson never looked rattled at any point in the game.

Per ESPN's college football insider Pete Thamel, Rising warmed up with a glove on his hand but was having some struggle throwing the ball. Rising was injured in the second quarter of Week 2's win vs. Baylor, when Baylor defensive lineman Treven Ma'ae pushed Rising along the sidelines into the Bears' water coolers.
