At 10:30pm ET, my Big 12 Game Of The Month is on Utah. The Utes enjoyed a bye after their loss against Arizona. They are itching to get back on the field and will be extremely determined to avoid another loss. The Utes hope to have QB Rising back and the bye helps his chances. They've been piling up games without him though and will be fine if he doesn't play. The Utes have beaten the Sun Devils four straight times after crushing them 55-3 last season. Rising didn't play in that game and Utah still won by more than 50! The Sun Devils managed only 7 first downs and 83 yards of total offense. Utah had 26 first downs and more than 500 yards of offense. The Utes vastly superior defense will be the difference again on Friday night.
