2026 Big 12 Title Game Odds: Utah Favored; BYU, Texas Tech In The Hunt

Isaiah Mizell - Catches another TD Friday Mizell notched six receptions (on seven targets) for 78 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 29-28 win against TCU.

Impact Mizell scored in his fourth consecutive game Friday, bringing him to seven touchdown receptions across the last seven games. While Gio Richardson (11 catches for 171 yards) seemingly took back his spot as the No. 1 option in the passing game, Mizell remains an elite asset in an offense that can easily sustain multiple productive receivers.

Giovanni Richardson - Shines in Friday's win Richardson had 11 receptions (on 13 targets) for 171 yards during Friday's 29-28 victory over TCU.

Impact Richardson had by far his best game of the season Friday as he set season highs in receptions, targets and receiving yards. He accounted for over half of Noah Fifita's passing yards as he finally slotted back into the lead role after missing four games during the middle of the season. While he's yet to catch a touchdown through five appearances this season, he proved on Friday that he still has a high ceiling in this high-powered passing attack.

Quincy Craig - Hauls in TD Friday Craig accrued five carries for 18 yards and gathered in all four targets for 47 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 29-28 win versus TCU.

Impact Craig was not very effective on the ground in Friday's comeback win, though he made up for it in the passing game. He caught a 15-yard touchdown with less than two minutes left in the game, his first touchdown reception of the season. He also set a season high in receiving yards as he caught four passes in his second straight game.

Kedrick Reescano - 52 yards in win Reescano tallied 10 carries for 52 yards during Friday's 29-28 win against TCU.

Impact Reescano rushed for over 50 yards for just the second time this season in Friday's win, though he failed to score a touchdown for the first time since Week 4. Given how effective the Wildcats' passing attack is, Reescano continues to have a fairly low ceiling heading into the final stretch of the regular season. He faces a difficult matchup versus Utah next.

Noah Fifita - Leads comeback win Friday Fifita was 24-for-37 passing for 313 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Friday's 29-28 win against TCU. He also had 11 rushes for 38 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Fifita accounted for three touchdowns Friday, including his fourth rushing touchdown of the campaign. He completed two drives in the final two minutes as well to complete the eight-point comeback win late in the fourth quarter. Next up is a very difficult matchup versus Utah, though a win could bump the Wildcats into playoff contention.

Caleb Smith - Will play in Week 10 Smith (undisclosed) is ready to roll for Friday's clash with TCU, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Smith popped up as questionable but will be available for Friday's contest. He's been held to just five catches for 27 yards over his last three games and has 14 grabs on the year in his freshman campaign.

Cole Rusk - Will be available for Week 10 Rusk (ankle) will be available for Friday's contest versus TCU, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Rusk will suit up for the first time since Week 3. He hauled in six catches for 86 yards before getting injured. It's unclear how involved he'll be right away following an extended absence.

Cole Rusk - Likely to suit up in Week 10 Rusk (ankle) carries a probable tag for Friday's clash with TCU, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Rusk is trending in the right direction ahead of Friday's meeting against TCU, and all signs point to him suiting up for his contest. However, Rusk has not suited up since Week 3, so it's unclear what kind of role he'll have if he ends up playing.

Ismail Mahdi - Considered questionable versus TCU Mahdi (undisclosed) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest versus TCU, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Mahdi has appeared in just two games for the Wildcats this season, and the questionable tag leaves his situation for Friday's matchup against the Horned Frogs up in the air. As has been the case in recent games, Kedrick Reescano, Quincy Craig and Antwan Roberts are the primary candidates to see work against the Red Raiders if Mahdi remains out.

Caleb Smith - Considered questionable for Friday Smith (undisclosed) is questionable for Friday's game versus TCU, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Smith has landed on Arizona's initial injury report after a Week 9 performance that saw him reel in one of two targets for seven yards. The wideout is in jeopardy of sitting out his first contest of the season.

Giovanni Richardson - Productive in return to field Richardson totaled six receptions (on nine targets) for 90 yards during Saturday's 34-26 loss against Texas Tech.

Impact Richardson returned to the lineup after a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury and he didn't miss a step. He tied for the team lead in targets with nine, catching six passes for 90 yards which ranked second on the team. Although Isaiah Mizell has exploded the past few weeks, this passing offense can sustain multiple highly productive receivers.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Isaiah Mizell - Explodes again Saturday Mizell totaled seven receptions (on nine targets) for 182 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-26 defeat versus Texas Tech.

Impact Mizell's excellent run of form continued Saturday, an especially promising performance considering both Gio Richardson and Chris Hunter returned to the lineup. Mizell had a season-high nine targets and gained over 180 yards for the second time in his last three games, thanks in part to his 94-yard touchdown reception. While it's unlikely he keeps up this pace, especially with Richardson and Hunter back in the lineup, Mizell has established himself as a fantasy star.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Kedrick Reescano - Scores twice Saturday Reescano recorded nine carries for 18 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in 3 of 4 targets for 16 yards during Saturday's 34-26 defeat against Texas Tech.

Impact Reescano scored a pair of touchdowns Saturday, a five-yard rush in the second quarter and a one-yard rush in the third. He now has seven rushing touchdowns on the season. He managed only 18 yards on his nine attempts though as the Texas Tech defense shut down the Wildcats' rushing attack. He faces a more favorable matchup Friday versus TCU.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Noah Fifita - Over 400 yards in loss Fifita completed 33 of 45 passes for 417 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-26 defeat versus Texas Tech. He also had 10 rushes for -25 yards.

Impact Fifita threw a season-high 417 yards in Saturday's loss, though he tied a season-low with just one touchdown pass. After holding onto a 23-17 late in the third quarter, he and the team blew the lead and lost for the second time this season. He faces a more favorable matchup Friday versus TCU.

R.J. Mosley - Looks to miss significant time Mosley (knee) looks to miss significant time, Andrew Valenzuela of The Daily Wildcat reports.

Impact Mosley's injury was bad enough that he exited Texas Tech's football field on a cart. The wide receiver was a candidate for regular reps in November, but that likely won't be the case anymore. Last month, Mosley logged three receptions (on five targets) for 49 yards.
