AP Top 25: Texas stays on top, while Tennessee and Utah rise
Gabe Goins - DNP against NIUGoins (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's game against Northern Illinois.
ImpactGoins was previously listed as questionable with an undisclosed injury following last week's game against UMass, but the freshman running back was unable to suit up against the Huskies on Saturday. Goins, as a true freshman, has struggled to earn opportunities early in the 2024 season, failing to record a counting stat through the team's first four games. Goins will hope to make his return to the field in time for Saturday's matchup against UConn.

Jake Orlando - DNP SaturdayOrlando (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's matchup against Northern Illinois.
ImpactOrlando was previously listed as questionable with an undisclosed injury following last week's game against UMass, but the senior tight end was unable to suit up against Northern Illinois. Orlando caught two passes for 34 yards in the team's first three games this season and will hope to make his recovery in time to play against UConn on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 22ROTOWIRE
Trayvon Rudolph - Tough day in OT lossRudolph tallied two receptions (on five targets) for 10 yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime defeat to Buffalo.
ImpactRudolph has not done much since his 100-yard season-opener performance, especially as he has just two catches in the last two weeks. The senior pass catcher looks to be a supplementary option in the Huskies' offensive scheme at this point in the season.
SEPTEMBER 22ROTOWIRE
Antario Brown - Two touchdowns in near lossBrown had 24 rushes for 73 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in 3 of 5 targets for 22 yards during Saturday's 23-20 overtime defeat to Buffalo.
ImpactBrown had complete control over the Huskies' backfield with a bonus two touchdowns, and he's now logged back-to-back weeks with 20 or more carries. The senior running back should continue to be the catalyst of Northern Illinois' rushing attack in the coming weeks.
SEPTEMBER 22ROTOWIRE
Ethan Hampton - Struggles versus BullsHampton completed 23 of 43 passes for 194 yards and one interception during Saturday's 23-20 overtime loss against Buffalo. He also had five rushes for 16 yards.
ImpactHampton was unable to find a passing touchdown in Northern Illinois' surprising loss after beating Notre Dame last week. The junior quarterback still passed 43 times even with the rush-heavy Husky attack, and he'll have the chance to bounce back next week against NC State.
SEPTEMBER 22ROTOWIRE
Victor Snow - First score of season vs. UNISnow caught 3 of 4 targets for 72 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 23-20 overtime win versus Northern Illinois.
ImpactSnow surprisingly led Buffalo's receiving corps versus the Huskies, which was likely aided to the fact that starting receiver Nik McMillan is injured. Snow could continue to be a solid option in the coming weeks but doesn't have much fantasy relevance at this point in the season.
