As Oklahoma State and Utah prepare to clash on Saturday, both teams are aiming for strong positions in the Big 12 standings, with playoff aspirations on the line. The game features two veteran quarterbacks, Cam Rising and Alan Bowman, both in their seventh year of college football, making it potentially historic due to their combined age of 49. Meanwhile, in the NFL, the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings both improved to 2-0, with Houston's C.J. Stroud and Minnesota's Sam Darnold leading their teams in offensive performances. Stroud has passed for 494 yards and three touchdowns so far, while Darnold has thrown for 476 yards and four touchdowns. In the Rookie of the Year race, Cardinals receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has surged to the favorite position after a standout game, while Bears QB Caleb Williams' stock has dropped following a disappointing performance. High school quarterbacks are also making headlines, with top prospects like Belleville's Underwood and Bellefontaine's St. Clair excelling in their final prep seasons, showcasing the future of football talent.
