00:00Kevin Walsh, it seems as though we have breaking news.
00:07Yes.
00:08Pete Thamel of ESPN.
00:09According to sources, Utah quarterback Cam Rising is a game-time call versus Oklahoma
00:13State.
00:14There's an expectation he'll attempt to play, but he's not expected to be 100% with an injury
00:18on his throwing end.
00:19I want to clarify.
00:20Please.
00:21I think Pete Thamel is the best in the business at breaking college football news.
00:23That tweet amounts to, sources tell me, absolutely nothing.
00:28I have no idea what's going on in one of the absolute biggest games on the slate.
00:33And I don't know.
00:34It's garbage.
00:35This is garbage.
00:36It's garbage.
00:37We pay them now, and we should, by the way.
00:40They're pros.
00:41Grow up.
00:43We all bet on these games.
00:44And again, I'm not on you, Tom.
00:46I hope they lose this game by a zillion.
00:50This is garbage.
00:52It's indefensible.
00:53Grow up.
00:55Be a real sport.
00:56It does not make it easy from the handicapping perspective.
01:00Uncertainty is not great for breakdowns.
01:02It's not great for a preview show to get you set for Saturday, except to ask even more
01:07questions.
01:08I don't know if we said this on the airwaves last week, or we just had this conversation
01:12during the commercial break, but Kyle Whittingham takes pride in the fact that Cam Rising is
01:17a game-time decision.
01:18He does not want to give the other side a competitive advantage, whatever that means.
01:23As he stated last week ahead of the Utah State game, the in-state rivalry in Logan, unless
01:28it is season-ending, we do not give injury updates.
01:32It's why we have no clue if Cam Rising is actually going to play today, despite reports,
01:37until Kev—and you're right, he leads Utah onto the field in the first huddle with the
01:42Utes on offense, and even then, we'll see what it looks like.
01:45An injury late in the opening half to his right throwing hand in their Week 2 matchup
01:50against Baylor.
