Rising tried to return from an injury to his throwing hand and it did not go well
Utah's seventh-year senior quarterback, who had not played since injuring his throwing hand against Baylor on Sept. 7, started thePlaying with a glove on his throwing hand, Rising went 2-for-9 for 11 yards in Utah's first two offensive series. He also took a nasty hit where he appeared to roll his ankle. He either couldn't grip the ball or couldn't plant on his injured ankle. Or both. The result was almost every throw coming up short and off target.
Rising also severely underthrew wide receiver Money Parks on a key 4th down play early in the fourth quarter. Parks was wide open and easily would have picked up the first down. But the short pass forced him to go to the ground four yards short of the marker. Isaac Wilson, a true freshman, had started the last three games in Rising's absence. Coming off a bye week, there was hope Rising's hand had healed and he could play.
