I think it's safe to say 3 weeks in we don't really know much about 90% of college teams out there. This week we will finally start to get some clarity.

[@Borck-l4r]

This game is getting everybody all hot and bothered. Absolutely love it! Go Utes

[@KevanHancock]

Best breakdown, conversation, friendly arguments,... Etc. etc. of this Utah OSU game I've heard thus far... Keep it up! And GO UTES!!!!

[@coreylyman]

"Cam Rising has not been a game changer through two weeks." This is nonsense. He had as many touchdown passes as incompletions week one (5), and jumped out to a 17-0 lead against Baylor before the finger injury. I'm glad he'll have some more eyes on him this week.

[@chaytonhumble5185]

Can’t blame Risings injury on that game being close. He plays QB not defense.

[@RunRoss]

Probably honestly even more important to mention that the track record in 2021 and 2022 is a lot closer to his true talent level at QB - which is to say he might still be a top 10 QB in CFB even if he's not as athletic or talented as the top 5. Only health can stop him from legitimately competing against any team

[@doctorstomp7468]

saying Cam has not been a game changer with a 241 passer rating doesn't quite add up.. dude has thrown 7 TD's in 4 qtrs compare that to anyone else in the conference and it's pretty clear Cam is a game changer. Match that against OKST's 129th ranked passing defense and it could be a bad day for OKST.

[@chaytonhumble5185]

Oklahoma state has arguably the best receiver room in the big 12. Utah secondary is young. If Bowman makes good throws and tue receivers catch them, it’ll be a long day for Utahs secondary.

[@dracwahlss]

So what everyone is saying here is it should be a shoot out cause the strengths og both teams are their passing games right now?? ​@@chaytonhumble5185

[@supbg7296]

You can’t say utah is a different team without Rising then say he’s not a game changer. That makes 0 sense. He is THE game changer.

[@SMychal25]

Does Ruffino actually watch any highlights or just look at stats? Complaining about Cam going 8-14 against Baylor when there was some balls dropped and a defensive PI is goofy as hell.

[@_Doodle-bob]

Also, Baylor actually might have a legitimately good defense this year. Baylor is quietly ranked 13th in the country in total defense right now. Maybe Baylor is good, but Utah is just better?

[@galen6538]

What did OK State do to hurt Joe? This is now the third time he has said OSU will lose.

[@connorboatright1807]

Yeah, dude hates OSU

[@pmartbrown]

Didn’t Cam throw 5 touchdowns in the first half of the first game before sitting down in the second quarter?

[@chaytonhumble5185]

Against southern Utah, the 175th ranked team. That’s expected but that doesn’t mean much. It means he did what he should’ve. He’s played what? 6 quarters in 4 years?

[@StoicMetitations]

Cam Rising hasn’t been a game changer? He’s played 2 halves of football and he has 7 touchdown passes…

[@TexasRibeye817]

Can’t wait for this game. I’ll be at BPS, can’t make a prediction bc so many variables. Love how heated yall got. The game should be electric. -OSU alum

[@djsuchnsuch2004]

Regardless of what these guys say, it will be an exciting game for sure. BPS is a very difficult place to play ball though. Gundy does not lose at home very often. I'll be looking to forward to tailgating with some Ute fans. I feel a new rivalry brewing. OSU 27 Utah 20. Go Pokes!

[@Zeusssssssss]

Utah State’s qb was the starter last year at Utah. He knows everything about Utah’s defense. So Utah showed up with a different scheme. Didn’t work. They went back to their core and Utah state got 1 td for the rest of the game, at their home field. Can’t compare vs usc. Besides, usc can’t beat Utah 😂

[@janjep88869]

They "USC" might could this year if they were still playing in the same conference bcuz now they have a D, where they didn't in the past. However, Utah could see USC in the playoffs possibly? Although, I hope the trend continues. Go Utes..!!

[@Zeusssssssss]

@@janjep88869 USC would win each of the last 4 times they played Utah and even go to the CFP in doing so- but they didn’t.

[@chucky0034]

All valid points, We all gladly get to find out Saturday. All we need to know is what the coaches said. Gundy- "Utah always plays 1 extra in the box, they take away the run and dare you to pass" Gundy- "Front 7 is a problem, Big and all Athletic". Gundy- "Utah loves 12 personal, they are who they are they don't change, just line up and try and beat us" Whittingham- "Gordon is a bruiser, he is a bully back there. He will have our attention." Whittingham-"You will see 13 personel!" As Utah fan I always pick the toughest road games to go to. I look at this as round 1 and round 2 in Dallas. No disrespect to K-State. I also am headed to Orlando.

[@dawnbowe5577]

Will be in Orlando too. Go Utes!

[@ejr801]

Utes need to come in and dominate from the get go. Cam Rising has to prove the doubters wrong, I’m hoping for a season defining game against OKS.

[@Fluffy311]

I can’t wait to let Ruffino be honest with me

[@dcjohnson7615]

Lol..... Cam Rising is 18/29 350 yards 7 TDs 0 INTs in about 3 quarters of play but hes slow...... holy hell, i would love to see him not at 60% and at 100%..... give the QB the Heisman today.

“He’s already hurt” like it was his fault? Dude was shoved late out of bounds into a block of solid mass. He cut and dislocated his finger. Chill dude. Let me see you not get hurt with that. It was a fluke thing, nothing to do with being injury-prone.

[@jfrazz08368]

I think Cam is a tick late. Utah State scoring 21, remember that was their Superbowl. Utes were asleep the first period. Wilson is a true 18 yo freshman. This will be a great game. I'm headed to Stillwater. Thanks for your comments.

[@rogerharris5515]

Ollie Gordon has been nursing a leg injury. He's been playing a little with it. As for Utah, They've been breaking in a new freshman QB. This whole non-conference 3 games, has been used to get him all settled in. Cam's injury wasn't a big deal. He will be starting against OSU. You haven't even seen the Utes A game yet this year, because they've used this time to make final adjustments to their defense and a few other parts. You'd know this if you watched the coach's show. Now that the conference is here, expect to see a Utah football team that is ready to play. Pokey Man isn't ready for what's coming this week end. Blake, you need to actually watch a game instead of just looking at stat sheets. Joe is right on.

[@treydenhansen5111]

Blake saying cam rising isn’t a game changer is absurd 😂

[@_Doodle-bob]

With regards to USU moving the ball early on Utah, that needs to be put into context. First it’s a rivalry game. Nothing like BYU, but still the “Battle of the Brothers” game and we all know rivalry games can get weird. Second, it was in Logan. Third, Bryson likely had one of the best games of his life going against a system that he was a major part of for two years. He knows Utahs scheme. He knows Morgan Scalley defense. This enabled him to have some 1st quarter success. The 3 quarters that followed are much more indicative of Utah and the team we are.

[@jakekelley7926]

Your first 2 points can be said for Oklahoma state. Yet they won their game 45-10😂

[@_Doodle-bob]

@@jakekelley7926 well my third point only exacerbated those first two points. So I’m not sure what you are getting at. Good for Oklahoma State for taking care of business. Utah also took care of business. If you watched the game (which I’m sure you didn’t) the game was never really in question.

[@vaxis2113]

7 touchdowns in what has essentially been 3 quarters of play. Anyone saying Cam isn't playing at a high level right now is being incredibly disingenuous. Cam does need to protect himself from getting injured, but that's the only fault I can see in his play. Utah wins 38 - 24.

[@chucky0034]

Blake, instead of looking at the box score like Eastcoast writers and casual rival fans might I suggest you watch the whole tape of the game. Good work all in all. ✌️

OSU is great and to get Utah at home is a huge bonus. Utah has not gelled yet, and Rising doesn’t take care of his body, but he is an elite QB. Utah has top 8 talent and coaching, just not sure they are there yet on week 4? This game could go either way, is very important, and should be amazing!

Ruffino is treating Rising's current injury as if it was like when he tore is ACL in 2022. He's got a lacerated finger that required stitches after getting tackled into a gatorade table. Sure, it's on his throwing hand, but it's a cut finger. It ain't a knee.

[@ruffinoandjoeshow]

Where did I say this even remotely (ps I picked Utah to win)

[@dallinwright1592]

Giving ok st credit for forcing a muffed punt and a fumbled pitch to the running bank is wild. Arkansas 100% gave that game away with unforced errors. Also their running game fell off when Jackson got hurt. Came back late but missed a lot of the second half.

[@aidenbrown3834]

Yeah Ollie not being able to run in the fist half I’d much MUCH different than the backup getting garbage time carries

Oh come on.... They purposely sit Rising for Utah St. to give Isaac Wilson experience. Theyre saving Rising for the conference. Hes gonna come out firing and Utah has a ton of weapons on offense. Ok St. Defense is super suspect. 25 chunk yards so far this season is one of the worst in fbs.

[@ninerealms69]

When Blake makes a good point Joe just deflects. It's annoying talking to people who skip from a good point to "well you just like Alan Bowman" when you're talking about Rising. Joe talked about how the Utah defense struggled against USU, but Blake put the blame on the offense that scored 39 points without rising. The Arkansas game counts against OSU even though they won, but the USU game doesn't matter. Weak
