USU vs Louisiana Tech

Louisiana Tech did to New Mexico State what I was expecting USU to do to them, trounce them 45-7. Maybe Utah State would’ve been able to do that had they been playing at home like La. Tech was, but there is no excuse for the Aggies lack of performance against NMSU. It’s about the next game, and that game is against the Bulldogs of Louisiana Tech.

Fortunately, we get to face them at home. There is significance in that. Our lone victory this season was at home and La. Tech has yet to win a game on the road this year. We have the support of the fans at home, which can give a team the extra push they need.

USU needs to reclaim their home field advantage before trying to take the next step of being successful on the road. Beating the Bulldogs would be a big win for the Aggies. It is a win that could provide the confidence needed for the Aggies to make a run to end the season. The best part is, the game is winnable.

If you can see past the win/loss column you would find an Aggie team that has fought hard against every team they’ve played this year. More than that, they’ve looked like they belong on the field with every team they’ve played so far. The Aggies have always been in the game late with a chance to win. One of these weeks it’s got to happen; somethings gotta give. When it does, the Aggies will start stringing together wins.
