⚡ CFB Dashboard

- Tight end is one of Utah's largest offensive mysteries after losing Dallen Bentley, who developed from 64 career receiving yards entering 2025 to more than 600 yards in his senior season. - Hunter Andrews is the best-known returning option, but his status is unclear after an injury four games into last season; Utah's usual silence on injuries adds uncertainty. - The remaining candidates are largely projections, and a new tight-end coach must identify another player capable of creating the matchup value Bentley supplied. - If the room does not produce a reliable target, Utah may need to spread the offense out more frequently.

- Utah has QB depth (Damp healthy as top-3 Big 12 QB, explosive Ficklin backup), solid HC in Scalley, unproven OC; Big 12 one-bid likely with favorable schedule but scary November.

- Pick/market: I'll take 11 wins from Utah football every year.

- Utah likely starting four seniors and one junior on O-line, with freshman and junior backing them up regularly.

- What does future P2/semi-pro top 48-60 team league structure look like—employee status, NIL limits, regional divisions, separate from lower D1?

- John Henry Daley suffered Achilles injury vs KSU; Utah lost him to Michigan transfer, not injury recovery timeline.

- Utah schedule heavily winnable with key QBs returning. - BYU at home critical for Big 12 championship race. - 9-3 to 10-2 realistic.
