Javin Whatley - Scores in bowl game Whatley hauled in all three targets for 47 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 24-19 loss against Southern Methodist.

Impact Whatley cooled off after a strong start to the season. Across his first seven games, he totaled 32 receptions for 370 yards and three touchdowns. He caught just six passes for 73 yards and one TD over the final five games of the regular season. However, he capped off the year with a strong bowl game performance, scoring his fifth touchdown reception of the campaign.

Kris Hutson - Held under wraps in bowl game Hutson gathered in three of six targets for 24 yards during Friday's 24-19 defeat against SMU.

Impact Hutson was coming off a three-game string with 24 catches for 351 yards and a touchdown, but the Mustangs' secondary did a good job of keeping the senior wideout in check in what could be his final collegiate game. Despite being a redshirt senior, Hutson has only played more than four games in three seasons thus far, so there is a chance he could apply for another campaign of eligibility, but he could also elect to move on from the college game.

Cameron Barmore - Season-best day in bowl game Barmore caught all five targets for 61 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 24-19 defeat to Southern Methodist.

Impact Barmore went without a touchdown across his first 11 games, but he'll end the 2025 season having scored a touchdown in back-to-back contests. He set season highs in receptions and receiving yards. On the year, he caught 19 passes for 189 yards and two scores.

Kedrick Reescano - Only one carry during bowl Reescano logged only one carry and catch during Friday's 24-19 loss to SMU.

Impact A limited Reescano ends his 2025 junior season on a down note, though not that down to ensure the campaign was a significant improvement compared to his already impressive 2024. While his 396 rushing yards were not much bigger than those from what he logged in 2024, Reescano's nine touchdowns altered his role from a solid option to a major goal-line threat.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Ismail Mahdi - Solid showing in Holiday Bowl Mahdi had 11 carries for 68 yards and caught all four targets for 23 yards during Friday's 24-19 defeat to Southern Methodist.

Impact Mahdi led the backfield with Kedrick Reescano getting banged up early and handled 11 carries to go along with a season-best four catches. The senior was unable to find paydirt in this one and finishes out what should be his final collegiate campaign with 133 totes for 853 yards and fourtouchdowns, adding 17 catches for 119 yards and another score as a receiver. Mahdi is a bit undersized at 5-foot-9, 184 pounds, and he doesn't appear on many big boards as an NFL prospect.

Noah Fifita - Will return to Arizona Fifita will return to Arizona for his 2026 season, SuperWest Sports reports.

Impact Fifita's last year of collegiate eligibility will be used, and unlike most, he will not give the NCAA's transfer portal a go. The quarterback has logged three consecutive seasons as Arizona's starting QB, and his 2025 redshirt junior campaign comes off as a career-best. Fifita logged 275 completed passes, 3,228 passing yards and a 29-6 TD-INT ratio, all career-highs. So for 2026, there will be few quarterbacks as proven and reliable as the senior Fifita.
