Isaac Wilson starts in place of QB Cameron Rising (hand) for No. 12 Utah

After throwing poorly in pregame warmups, quarterback Cameron Rising was replaced in the starting lineup by Isaac Wilson as No. 12 Utah faced No. 14 Oklahoma State at Stillwater, Okla., on Saturday.

Rising, who was limited in practice this week with a hand injury, appeared in Saturday's warmups and went through throwing drills but with a glove on his throwing hand, fluttering his throws. He had been described as a game-time decision Saturday with ESPN reporting that he could be expected to play despite residual hand soreness.

Instead, Wilson stepped in for Rising for the second straight game. Last weekend, he led the Utes to a 38-21 victory over Utah State.

Wilson has thrown for 343 yards on 31-of-53 passing with four touchdowns and three interceptions this season.

Rising was injured Sept. 7 during the Utes' 23-12 home victory against Baylor.

In two games this season, Rising is 18-of-29 passing (62.1 percent) for 346 yards and seven touchdowns, with five of those in a season-opening victory against Southern Utah. He also has 46 yards rushing on six carries.

Rising, 25, is in his seventh college football season, He originally enrolled at Texas in 2018, transferred to Utah in 2019 and played one game for the Utes in 2020. He sustained a major knee injury in the Rose Bowl following the 2022 season and missed the entire 2023 campaign.

In 29 games over four seasons on the field for Utah, Rising has completed 64.0 percent of his passes for 5,918 yards, 53 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.
