Keys to Victory: Utah vs Iowa State
- Ahead of Iowa State in 2026 Week 4, the Utah preview says defensive tackle Karson Kaufusi is off the injury report. That updates his listed availability, not confirmation of a full workload or a medical diagnosis.
- The Utah preview says the Utes held their first three 2026 opponents to 24 combined points, while Utah State twice hurt them on reverses. That identifies a perimeter-contain concern within an otherwise strong early defense, not a forecast for the Iowa State game.
