Yes, Utah improved to 4-0 on the season — but it came with a cost.
Quarterback Tyler Huntley went down with an apparent shoulder injury, and defensive star Kylie Fitts was carted off the field with an apparent leg injury. Head coach Kyle Whittingham said that neither injury is expected to be season-ending, but did not give any further updates after the game.
So where do the Utes go under senior quarterback Troy Williams, and with a defense that allowed 200 yards rushing against the Wildcats.
