BYU released their official depth chart against UTSA.

BYU is 3-0 as they prepare for another game on Saturday. BYU released their official depth chart against UTSA:

Quarterback

3. Jaren Hall

Zach Wilson is piecing together a fantastic season at quarterback. Wilson will look to build on his JR campaign against UTSA.

Running Back

1. Lopini Katoa OR Tyler Allgeier

No changes here. However, Sione Finau could see his first action of the season against UTSA.

Full Back

1. Masen Wake
2. Kyle Griffitts

Quick shoutout to Masen Wake - he played really well against UTSA. Masen Wake had one of the most entertaining plays of the season when he hurdled a would-be tackler and broke a few more tackles before finally being dragged down near midfield.

Wide Receiver

1. Neil Pau'u
2. Kody Epps

1. Gunner Romney
2. Keanu Hill OR Brayden Cosper

Dax Milne and Gunner Romney have been the go-to receivers over the last few weeks, that probably won't change this week.

Tight End

1. Isaac Rex
