After struggling against the run against Utah State a week ago, Utah shut down OSU running back Ollie Gordon II despite not having its star linebacker Karene Reid for the second week in a row. Gordon finished with 11 carries, 42 rushing yards and a 3.8 yard per carry average.

The Utes’ starting quarterback did not play in the team’s 38-21 win over Utah State last week after suffering an injury on his throwing hand in Week 2 vs. Baylor, and now ESPN’s Pete Thamel is reporting that Rising will be a “game-time decision” against the Cowboys.
