Utah State thoughts

After a bye week, and sounds like the bumps and bruises are healing well, 1st road game since the 1st of the season, it's not an easy place to play, I've been there a couple of times and not my most favorite place to see a game but I'm not an Aggie fan, but the Aggie Ice Cream, lol......

I think this will be a hard fought game and we see Mr. Josh Allen show us why he's a stud and we get this done late......UW 31----USU 28......GO POKES


to everyone's enjoyment I'll be on Vakay next week, so kinda quiet from me, lol

I sure hope so. This is the most important game on the schedule and we will finally know what kind of team we have following this week.

I simply wouldn't place a bet on this game. Wyoming had 2 weeks to prepare for this game but has been anemic on offense against any team with a pulse. Utah State's win over BYU is looking less impressive by the day. Until last year, Utah State had our number. We have the best single talent on either roster by a long shot with Josh Allen...but talent doesn't always translate to execution and wins.

I will go with Wyoming 24 - Utah State 23.

No victory means no bowl. This is a huge game for us no doubt. Pokes win 24 21 (I hope)

Our receivers carry over their performance from Texas State, our running game is improved but not dramatically and are able to sustain more drives. Defense continues its strong performances. UW 21-Utah State 17. GO POKES!

Hey guys! Utah State fan here.
I'm hoping for a great game tomorrow, and of course an Aggie win. No offense intended.
As a USU fan, after 52 years of wandering in the wilderness, this is what I'd always hoped for. It's great to have a game against Wyoming where the outcome is in doubt, and the stakes are high. I wish both teams were better. I wish everyone was expecting that this game would determine the MWC champion. But you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need. Hey, that's kind of catchy.
I hope both teams can walk off the field with their heads up. I hope there aren't any injuries. I hope we both get bowl eligible, no matter what the outcome. I hope the winner, by some miracle, goes to the MWC championship game.
So anyway, good luck. But not too much. And Wyoming is still my second favorite MWC team.
Go Pokes. Go AGGIES!

My brother's brother-in-law probably sez USU 27-24, just like his brother-in-law's far better looking brother.

I think '78 and Vegas are both right. USU by 3, 27-24. Never bet against people who do it for a living. And unfortunately, my brother-in-law's brother is not only better looking than his brother, but also better looking than your humble Aggie correspondent.

Wrong! The Pokes DID intend an offense! They just haven't got it (yet).

Since Bohl has taken over the program, the Pokes are 3-15 on road games (This doesn't count the bowl game with BYU or the loss to Iowa this year- if you throw those two games in the mix they are 3-17 on the road). Think about that for a second. They have won 3 games and lost 15 on the road. With their offensive woes this year, I don't believe they turn it around today. I see two possibilities today - one is a close game with USU winning by 7 or less, or a complete blowout with USU winning by 3+ touchdowns. For some reason Bohl has not figured out the road scenario in the MWC. At some point his teams will figure out how to win away from Laramie, but I just don't see it happening today. I hope I have to come back and eat some crow. USU by 7.

The three wins CowboyNV are referring to are...

2014: @ Fresno State, 45-17 blowout win in Bohl's first year at Wyoming
2016: @ Fort Fart, 38-17, to start a 5 game winning streak last year
2016: @ Nevada, 42-34
