No. 21 Utah could be down to its sixth-string running back, a week after inserting a fourth-stringer at center.Utah lost running back Armand Shyne to a season-ending knee injury last week, and his replacement, walk-on Jordan Howard, wont play Saturday at Oregon State because of an undisclosed injury. Next up could be redshirt freshman Marcel Manalo, true freshman Devontae Henry-Cole (who has not yet played) or a player moved from another position.At least theres a chance that running back Zack Moss (309 rushing yards) could return mostly healthy for the game at Reser Stadium, starting at 4 p.m. ET.This is the worst I can remember and Ive been here a lot of years, 12th-year Utes coach Kyle Whittingham said of the injuries. I cant remember this many injuries.Utah (5-1, 2-1) has still managed to find itself in a three-way tie for first-place in the Pac-12 South with Colorado and Arizona State. Oregon State (2-3, 1-1) ended a 12-game conference losing streak Saturday with a 47-44 overtime home victory over Cal.Can you grow from that? Boy, you better, Oregon State coach Gary Andersen said. You absolutely should grow from that moment.We have to understand that is what youre supposed to do, win football games. It should give them an understanding of what it takes to win in the Pac-12. Its a great win, but we still have lots of work to do.The Utes have been playing with fire by falling behind so early, given its injury situation. They were down 24-10 to USC before rallying for a 31-27 victory. They trailed Cal 14-0 in the first quarter and lost 28-23. They fell behind 14-3 to Arizona last week but came back for a 36-23 victory.Were a pretty decent football team if we stop some of the self-inflicted stuff, said Whittingham, who reached 100 career victories last week. We do some things to create tough situations for ourselves. And weve got to get those fixed.Oregon State rushed for 474 yards in last weeks victory over Cal, when running back Ryan Nall became the eighth player in school history to rush for more than 200 yards in a game. He finished with 221 on just 14 carries. Art Pierce and speedy Paul Lucas are reliable backups who will also be needed against a Utah defense that is 24th nationally against the run, allowing 119.0 yards per game.As for Utahs running game, the depletion in the backfield -- which includes the early season retirement of Joe Williams -- is exacerbated by the injuries at center. The Utes, without standout center J.J. Dielman for the rest of the season because of a foot injury, started fourth-stringer Nick Nowakowski last week against Arizona. Utah committed nine false start penalties.Whittingham partially blamed that on Arizonas defense mimicking the snap count, although Wildcats coach Rich Rodriguez called that an empty accusation. In any case, Utah will look this week in practice to see if senior offensive linemen Isaac Asiata or Sam Tevi can handle the center position.Nick Nowakowski didnt play poorly but we want to get the five best guys out there, Whittingham said. If theres a better combination, Im interested in that.It has all put more pressure on quarterback Troy Williams, who has not thrown an interception in 106 passes in three Pac-12 games. His season completion percentage of 58.3 is something he is working on, but at least he is not putting Utah in trouble. Leading receiver Tim Patrick, who has caught five of Williams seven touchdown passes, missed the Arizona game but has a high probability of playing Saturday, according to Whittingham.Oregon State held Cal quarterback Davis Webb to 113 passing yards, well below his average of 428.6 entering the game. Cornerback Xavier Crawford had 10 tackles and broke up three passes.Beavers quarterback Darell Garretson was just 13 of 24 for 85 yards, with two interceptions, in the win over Cal, when OSU was saved by its running game. The Beavers, who dont have a reception of longer than 20 yards in the past two games, will find that strategy harder to implement against a stout Utah front, led by potential first-round defensive tackle Lowell Lotulelei.They have really good run schemes with a lot of misdirection and fly sweeps, Whittingham said of the Oregon State run game. They have a whole arsenal in their repertoire. Thats the main thing, trying to stop them running the football. Thomas Vermaelen Jersey . "Trying to breathe," he said with a grin. Bernier stopped 42 of 43 shots on Monday night, including all 22 in a hectic middle frame, his heroic performance propelling the Leafs toward an undue point in their final game before the Christmas break. Sergi Roberto Jersey . -- Quarterback Will Finch threw for 252 yards and three touchdowns, and Yannick Harou rushed in two scores as the No. http://www.fcbarcelonapro.com/Kids-Xavi-Hernandez-Jersey/ . After a replay, the winner will meet Sunderland in the quarterfinals. Sagbo did well to control Sone Alukos right cross and fire past Brighton goalkeeper Peter Brezovan. Aluko was making his first start in four months after recovering from an Achilles injury. Aleix Vidal Jersey . "It doesnt get any better than that," Giambi said. "Im speechless." The Indians are roaring toward October. Giambi belted a two-run, pinch-hit homer with two outs in the ninth inning to give Cleveland a shocking 5-4 win over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night, keeping the Indians up with the lead pack in the AL wild-card race. Ousmane Dembele Jersey . Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview. "We just dont know what the results from Torino will be," Budgett said.
