Ja'Quinden Jackson ran for a career-high 97 yards and a touchdown and No. 12 Utah had a season-high 306 yards rushing in a 45-20 win over Arizona on Saturday night. Cam Rising threw for 151 yards and a touchdown in his return following a one-game absence. Utah (No. 14 CFP, 7-2, 5-1 Pac-12) forced seven fumbles and recovered four. Jayden de Laura had 159 yards passing and ran for a touchdown to lead Arizona (3-6, 1-5). The Wildcats totaled 387 yards but gained only 138 yards after halftime. Utah took control of the game in the second quarter behind an imposing running attack. The Utes racked up 153 yards and four touchdowns on the ground in the first half while averaging 7.0 yards per carry. Three of the scores came in the second quarter.

Arizona got its only touchdown before halftime when Michael Wiley gained 57 yards on a jet sweep to set up De Laura's 3-yard scoring run two plays later to tie the score 7-7. Third string QB Nate Johnson scored touchdowns on his first two career carries to help Utah pull away before halftime. His first touchdown, an 8-yard run, put the Utes up 14-7. After Zemaiah Vaughn recovered a muffed punt return at the Arizona 9, Johnson punched it in on his second run one play later to extend the lead to 28-7. The Utes drove deep into Arizona territory twice in the third quarter, but fumbles ended both drives. Utah finally scored its fifth touchdown early in the fourth on Rising's first touchdown pass. He connected with Thomas Yassmin on a 12-yard strike to extend the Utes' lead to 38-10. - Utah/AP College Football

11/02/22 - Matt Landers, rSr/2023, Arkansas + More +

Arkansas coach Sam Pittman nodded his head Monday when a reporter mentioned the numbers recorded by receiver Matt Landers in the team's last two games. He again nodded when asked if the Toledo transfer's play is more along the lines of what was anticipated when the Razorbacks signed him out of the NCAA transfer portal. Simply put: Landers is producing, and Pittman is thrilled. Confidence was the difference for Landers during Arkansas' victories at BYU and Auburn. "He needs confidence," Pittman said. "I mean, he needs that. We all do, but he needs that. He's catching the ball extremely well." Following a 123-yard outing in the Razorbacks' win over Missouri State on Sept. 17, Landers' numbers plummeted. He caught three passes for 50 yards over the next three weeks.

Landers was held without a reception in the loss at Mississippi State. That day, his string of 10 consecutive games with at least one catch was snapped. But in Arkansas' last two outings, he has looked better than ever. Pittman said last Monday that Landers would have to be good down the stretch if Arkansas hoped to close the regular season on a note similar to last year, when the team won five of its final six games. A long, speedy and fluid target, Landers may be turning the corner for the Razorbacks. "To be honest with you, I think KJ (Jefferson) is the one who really looks to me like he's looking for him a little bit more," Pittman said, referencing his quarterback. "Now, he has to get open. Certainly he's No. 1 in read progression a lot more than what he was earlier in the year." - Northwest Arkansas Times

Taylen Green threw for a career-high 305 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another, George Holani rushed for 108 yards and three touchdowns, and Boise State defeated Colorado State 49-10 Saturday evening. Boise State (6-2, 5-0 Mountain West Conference), winners of four straight, limited Colorado State to a season-low 170 yards, 49 less than the Rams mustered against Michigan in their season opener. The Broncos also posted a season-high 514 yards of total offense in the victory. Colorado State (2-6, 2-2), which gained nearly half their offensive yards on a 76-yard touchdown pass from Clay Millen to Justus Ross-Simmons, remains winless against the Broncos in 12 meetings.

Green, who rushed for over 100 yards in his first two games with significant playing time, hasn’t rushed for more than 22 yards during Boise State’s current win streak. He completed 22 passes - also a season high for the freshman - on 27 attempts for a completion percentage of 81, another personal best for him. Stefan Cobbs led the Boise State receiving corps with four catches for 91 yards, while Billy Bowens added four receptions for 76 yards and a touchdown. Millen threw for 161 yards, while the Rams finished with a total of 3 yards rushing. - Boise State/AP College Football
