Notes
- Tight End Brayden Loftin suffered a knee injury early in the B.Y.U. game and be out indefinitely.
- Dylan Edwards is the clear second running back, even though the depth chart continues to list him as an “or” with La’James White.
- The Dante Cephas / Tre Spivey wide receiver spot has essentially been abandoned for an extra tight end or an extra running back. It’s possible they may play a bigger factor with the injury to Loftin.
- Jacob Knuth was the first QB off the bench, and is most likely the in-game back-up quarterback.
