Utah struggled to get anything going on offense against the Sun Devils, eventually falling by a score of 27-19.
What Happened To Cam Rising?
Rising has dealt with injury for much of his college football career. He missed the entirety of last season due to a knee injury.
This season, he injured his throwing hand in the team’s game against the Baylor Bears.
In Friday’s matchup against Arizona State, it seemed Rising was pretty beat up, with a possible lower leg injury. Whittingham did not provide details on which injury (or injuries) led to the decision to name Wilson as the team’s starter.
Isaac Wilson, Utah Football Quarterback
Wilson started two games for the Utes this season – against Utah State and Oklahoma State. The team won both games.
