Washington prepares young running backs for Utah State game

Summary

Washington head coach Jedd Fisch announced that running backs Quaid Carr and Jayden Limar will miss time due to injuries sustained in last week's game. Carr requires hand surgery, while Limar is sidelined with an elbow injury. The team will now rely on Trey Cooley, Brian Bonner, Ansu Sanoe, Julian McMahan, and Ryken Moon for carries against Utah State. Washington struggled with its zone-blocking scheme during the Apple Cup but may find a rhythm against a Utah State defense that allowed a 50.2% success rate against the run last week. Utah State also arrives with significant turnover concerns after its quarterbacks threw multiple interceptions in a loss to Idaho State.
