Nevada coach Jeff Choate said AJ Bianco had diagnostic testing done and added, "I don't think there will be anything that AJ will do tonight in practice." Bianco injured his ankle in the first quarter against the Bison, according to Nevada Sports Net. Nevada is playing it by ear on who will be available at quarterback this week, the outlet reported.
Nevada QB Carter Jones is banged up with an arm injury, according to Nevada Sports Net. With his status uncertain entering game preparation, Nevada is playing it by ear at quarterback, Nevada Sports Net reported. Coach Jeff Choate said it was important "to get Carter to throw a little bit" and see how he was feeling.
Jaden Smith broke out with 12 catches for 90 yards and 21 CollegeFFB points in UTEP's 24-11 loss to San José State on Oct. 17. UTEP visits North Dakota State on Oct. 31, and Smith looks like he could keep drawing heavy volume, having averaged 4.3 catches per game across his previous 3 games. At $6.5M, he has averaged 8.4 points a game this season, and his Oct. 17 output hints at more upside.
Herschel Turner ran 19 times for 192 yards and 1 touchdown in Nevada's 30-13 win at UTEP on Oct. 10, good for 25.2 CollegeFFB points. According to Nevada Sports Net, it was his second straight game setting a career high in rushing, and he was named the Mountain West's offensive player of the week for Week 6. At $6.8M, Turner should continue to get chances when Nevada visits North Dakota State on Oct. 17, having produced all season with an average of 15.6 points a game this season.
Raymond Moore III threw for 132 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran 15 times for 65 yards in UTEP's 30-13 loss to Nevada on Oct. 10, good for 19.8 CollegeFFB points. At $4.9M, he should remain a factor for fantasy, averaging 9 points a game this season, as UTEP faces San José State on Oct. 17.
