SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Utah’s dynamic duo of quarterback Tyler Huntley and running back Zack Moss suffered injuries in the second quarter against Arizona State.
Huntley went down first with a leg injury after getting tackled by an Sun Devil defender. Three plays later, Moss ran the ball up the middle and was hit in the helmet by an Arizona State defender, forcing the star running back to exit the game. Evan Fields was called for targeting on the hit to Moss and was ejected after the officials reviewed the play.
Both players returned shortly after on the same drive and was able to get into the end zone on a one-yard touchdown by Moss.
