Aggie Basketball looking up, Football too!

Last night the Aggie men’s basketball team met and exceeded my expectations; tonight, the Aggie football team showed up just as I had predicted but failed to pull out the win. A busy week for Aggie sports provided a lot of excitement and entertainment for die-hard fans like me. It also provided ample new content [...]

New Aggie Basketball Blog

I am intrigued. The blog is well constructed with a fancy picture and nice color scheme. And there’s the basketball roster down the side with all the players mentioned, except new walk-on E. J. Farris. The lone post is written as if it were a journal entry and hardly resembles a news style article at [...]

USU QB Diondre Borel

First things first, Diondre Borel is one of the top quarterbacks in the WAC. He is far better than the quarterbacks USU has fielded in recent history. As a fan, I can’t be disappointed in the effort and determination shown by our QB.
Having said that, I have been doing a lot of thinking about what this [...]

Deciphering the Aggie Football Team

The Utah State Aggies lost to the Nevada Wolfpack yesterday by 3 points, 35-32. 3 was also the margin of defeat in our game against NMSU last week. Herein lies the cunundrum: Nevada has a power ranking of 77 and NMSU is ranked 112th according to jhowell.net. How can we play so badly one week and so well the next? Had the [...]

James Walker coming to Utah State

MVP of his high school basketball league as a junior and getting ready to follow it up with a stellar senior season, James Walker decided he’d like to do that as a future Utah State Aggie.
His statistics aren’t mind numbing, and he’s not a high flyer, but the high school senior has had interest from more schools [...]

At 1-3 the Aggies are an unkown

What do we know about the Aggies?
This seems to be a common question among Aggie fans with regardto their football team. Usually, after four games we would have a good grasp on where the team is in relation to our WAC counterparts. But this season is different. Take this quote, for example, from a USU fan [...]

Player Spotlight: USU Punter Peter Caldwell

I mentioned briefly in my USU vs BYU review that Peter Caldwell had played a good game and that our special teams played well. I’ve had the chance to look at the stats and realized that I didn’t do him justice. Here is his stat line for the season to date:
Peter Caldwell, K USU,  Punts:23  Yards: 1025  [...]

USU vs BYU game recaps

The common feeling I have after most of our games is one of reserved enthusiasm. Following the BYU loss my feelings were the same, except maybe a little more reserve and a little less enthusiasm.
BYU was the superior team last night, there is no disputing it. However, the Aggies did look much more competitive this [...]
