Utah's offensive line will feature a new starter

Right offensive back Michael Mokofisi is expected to be unavailable today. Mokofisi struggled a lot last week and it appears injury played a role.

Starting in his place will be Utah Falcon Kaumatule, who filled in for Mokofisi last week. Kaumatule has mostly worked as an offensive tackle, but has also trained in-house.

Good and bad injury news for Utah's defense

Connor O'Toole was close to a return last week and will be again today. There were indications throughout the week and early Saturday that he would play against TCU, but then he wasn't fit last week. Today the situation is similar, but O'Toole seems ready to get going today.

It looks like Utah will be getting not one, but two Fotu back today. Defensive tackle Tevita Fotu and linebacker Sione Fotu are believed to be available for the Utes.

At defensive tackle, Junior Tafuna was not fit last week after being ruled ineligible for medical reasons last week, but that wasn't a football issue. He was expected to return to action today since Tafuna traveled with the team to Houston, but he does not appear to be available for the Utes today.

Keanu Tanuvasa has struggled with injuries in recent weeks. Despite a strong performance against TCU, Tanuvasa was significantly hampered. He is not expected to be available for Utah today.
