Why Pac-12 Teams Should Be 'Terrified' Of Utah In 2023

For those who follow college football from afar, if you just look at Utah's 4-0 record you'd assume that everything is just fine in Salt Lake City.

For Utes fans who have been watching this team take the field every weekend missing about a dozen players, with star quarterback Cam Rising and star tight end Brant Kuithe headlining them, they know they've yet to be at full strength. Something that makes their 4-0 record become even more impressive, as they beat Florida who is now a top 25 team, while also beating No. 24 UCLA last weekend.

It is also something that according to analyst Evan Moore, should truly worry other teams in the conference.

Utah has a game against No. 19 Oregon State on Friday before they hit their bye week, which could be pivotal in getting key players back. The Utes are currently viewed as underdogs against the Beavers, but they have been able to overcome challenges all season.

Rising's status is unclear, but it is worth noting that he suited up before the UCLA game and warmed up before being spotted in street clothes during the game signaling that he could be ready to go soon.
