UTAH STATE®


• Gary Andersen (hired on Dec. 9, 2018) is in his second stint as Utah State’s head coach and in his fifth season overall (2009-12; 2019-present). Andersen, who is the first of 27 coaches in USU history to serve as head coach multiple times, was named the Western Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 2012. .

• Andersen has been a Division I head coach for 10 years and has 31 years of coaching experience. He has been involved in 13 bowl games, including four New Year’s Day bowls.

• Andersen was a finalist for the Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year Award at Utah State in 2012, along with being named the Western Athletic Conference Coach of the Year, and a semifinalist for the Maxwell Coach of the Year Award (2013) and George Munger Coach of the Year Award (2013, 2014) at Wisconsin. He was also a finalist for the Frank Broyles Award at Utah in 2008, which is given to the top assistant in college football. As a head coach, he led Utah State to the 2012 WAC Championship and Wisconsin to the 2014 Big Ten Conference West Division title.

• Academically, three of Andersen’s teams have finished in the top 10 nationally in Academic Progress Rate, in addition to 160 academic all-conference honorees.

• During his five-year tenure with the Aggies, Andersen has posted a 33-30 overall record, including the school’s first back-to-back winning seasons (7-6 in 2011 and 11-2 in 2012) since 1979-80. He was also the first head coach since Phil Krueger (1973-75) to notch an overall winning record.

• In 2019, Andersen led Utah State to a 6-2 Mountain West record, finishing third in the Mountain Division. USU also advanced to its 14th bowl game in school history, including its third under Andersen, which is the second-most under any head coach in Aggie history.

• When initially hired by Utah State on Dec. 4, 2008, Andersen inherited a program that had suffered through 11-straight losing seasons and only had two winning campaigns in 28 years. Fast forward six years since his departure, and Andersen is inheriting a program that has now appeared in seven bowl games in the past eight years after playing in just four bowl games in school history prior to his arrival.

• In just his third year at Utah State, Andersen led the 2011 squad to its first bowl game in 14 years and the first Aggie team to win seven games since 1993. The following season, Andersen led USU to its best season ever with a school-record 11 wins, going undefeated in the WAC and capturing its first outright league title since 1936. USU also won just its second-ever bowl game that season with a 41-15 victory against Toledo in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. USU finished the 2012 campaign with an 11-2 record and is one of just three teams in school history, along with the 1961 and 2018 clubs, to finish the season nationally ranked as it was 16th in the final Associated Press poll, 17th in the final Coaches poll and 23rd in the final BCS standings.

• During his first four years as Utah State’s head coach, Andersen built an Aggie football program that set numerous school records, including wins (11), points scored (454), total offense (6,108 yards) and yards per game (469.8) in 2012, and touchdowns (60), rushing yards (3,675) and rushing touchdowns (37) in 2011. The 282.7 rushing yards per game in 2011 ranked sixth in the nation that year and are the second-most in school history. Furthermore, the 34.9 points per game scored in 2012 are the second-most in school history, while that team’s defense allowed just 322.1 yards and 15.4 points per game, its fewest at USU since the 1960s. Furthermore, those 15.4 points allowed per game in 2012 ranked seventh nationally.

• During the 2011 and 2012 seasons at Utah State, Andersen led the Aggies to an 18-8 record, including an 11-2 conference mark.

• While at Utah State, Andersen has recruited/coached seven All-Americans (Will Davis, Kerwynn Williams, Tyler Larsen, Nevin Lawson, Zach Vigil, Kyler Fackrell and Dominik Eberle) and 10 Aggies who went on to have careers in the NFL, including current Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner, who was selected in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft. Furthermore, Andersen has coached 37 players that earned various all-conference honors during his time in Logan, including running back Robert Turbin, who was named the WAC’s Offensive Player of the Year in 2011 and has spent the past seven seasons in the NFL.

• Following his four years as Utah State’s head coach, Andersen spent two seasons as the head coach at Wisconsin (2013-14) and three years as the head coach at Oregon State (2015-17). At Wisconsin, he led the Badgers to a 19-7 record, a Big Ten Divisional Championship in 2014 and appearances in the 2013 Capital One Bowl and 2014 Outback Bowl.

• During his two years at Wisconsin, Andersen coached five All-Americans and had seven players selected in the NFL Draft. In 2013, Chris Borland was named a first-team All-American, and the Big Ten Conference Linebacker and Defensive Player of the Year. In 2014, Andersen coached Melvin Gordon, the nation’s lead-ing rusher and scorer, to the Big Ten Conference Offensive Player of the Year Award and a runner-up finish for the Heisman Trophy.

• At Oregon State, Andersen had three players drafted into the NFL in Isaac Seumalo, Sean Harlow and Treston Decoud, and coached two Freshman All-Americans in Xavier Crawford and Gus Lavaka. He also coached 12 all-league players.

2019 UTAH STATE GAME RECAPS

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - For the second-consecutive year, Utah State proved it could go toe-to-toe with the big boys of college football, taking ACC-foe Wake Forest to the wire before falling short, 38-35, in the season opener for both teams on Friday, Aug. 30, 2019, at BB&T Field. The Aggies, who opened the season with a 38-31 loss at No. 11 Michigan State in 2018, appeared to be headed for the potential game-tying field goal or game-winning touchdown in the waning moments Friday night. Unfortunately, the Demon Deacons’ Justin Strnad intercepted a pass by Utah State junior QB Jordan Love at the Aggies’ 20-yard line with 17 seconds left to end the game. Love finished with 416 yards passing and three touchdowns, completing 33 of his 48 pass attempts – both career highs. His favorite target on the night was graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner, who caught eight passes for 118 yards and one touchdown. For Love, it was his third-career 400-yard passing game. Utah State finished with 596 yards of total offense, including 180 on the ground. Junior college transfer RB Jaylen Warren led the way for the Aggies with 141 yards and one touch-down on 19 carries. Warren’s 4-yard touchdown run with 13:51 remaining in the fourth quarter gave Utah State its final lead of the night at 35-31. After the go-ahead score, the Aggie defense forced two straight punts by the Demon Deacons, and turned them over on downs with 4:05 to go. However, USU couldn’t run out the remainder of the clock and punted back to Wake Forest, which took over on its own 11-yard line with 2:19 to go. Two plays later, after Demon Deacons QB Jamie Newman completed passes of 18 and 70 yards, respectively, the hosts were at the Aggies’ 1. But, Utah State’s defense stuffed three straight running plays by Wake Forest and the Demon Deacons faced a fourth-and-goal situation from the 2. That’s when Newman found Kendall Hinton in the right corner of the end zone for the touchdown. Newman finished the night with 401 yards passing and three touchdowns, completing 34-of-47 passes. He also rushed the ball 21 times for 36 yards and a score. Following Wake Forest’s go-ahead touchdown, Love drove Utah State into Demon Dea-cons’ territory, aided by a 24-yard pitch-and-catch to Mariner, and a targeting penalty on the hosts. Senior RB Gerold Bright scored the Aggies’ first touchdown of 2019 on a seven-yard run in the first quarter, while Love’s first touchdown pass of the season came with 14:11 remaining in the second quarter when he found junior WR Jordan Nathan from 27 yards out. Love also threw a 17-yard touch-down pass to Mariner, who made an acrobatic grab in the right corner of the end zone to give the visitors a 21-17 lead at half, then found sophomore WR Deven Thompkins for a 56-yard touchdown pass midway through the third quarter. Defensively, junior LB David Wood-ward had a career-high 24 tackles, which included 3.5 tackles for loss and 1.0 sacks, to go along with two forced fumbles. Redshirt junior DE Justus Te’i recov-ered one of those fumbles and junior S Shaq Bond had a game-high-tying two pass breakups and eight tackles.

Junior QB Jordan Love (10) was 33-of-48 passing for 416 yards and three touchdowns in Utah State’s 38-35 season-opening road loss at Wake Forest.

Junior LB David Woodward (9) had a career-high 24 tackles, which included 1.0 sacks and 3.5 tackles for loss, to go along with two forced fumbles against the Demon Deacons.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Junior RB Jaylen Warren rushed for 74 yards and one touchdown and senior PK Dominik Eberle kicked three field goals as Utah State held on for a 23-17 Mountain West road win at San Diego State on Saturday, Sept. 21, 2019. This was the Aggies’ first victory over San Diego State since a 31-25 road win on Nov. 25, 1967, snapping a 10-game losing skid to the Aztecs. Junior QB Jordan Love threw for 297 yards, completing 30 of his 47 pass attempts, to help Utah State (2-1, 1-0 Mountain West) open a 23-3 lead with 10:53 remaining in the third quarter after Eberle kicked his third field goal of the night, a 32-yarder. The Aztecs (3-1, 0-1) made it interesting in the fourth quarter, though, as quarterback Ryan Agnew threw a pair of touchdown passes – a 25- and 49-yarder, respectively – both of which were on fourth down. The second of the two came with 5:19 remaining, pulling the hosts within 23-17. San Diego State got the ball back one more time on its own 25-yard line with 1:18 to go after Eberle missed a 42-yard field goal. Agnew completed a 14-yard pass on the opening play, but misfired on his next three attempts before redshirt junior DE Justus Te’i slammed the door on the Aztecs by sacking the SDSU signal caller for a loss of 37 yards. Utah State finished with 375 yards of total offense, just three better than SDSU. Agnew was 20-of-37 for 281 yards and two touchdowns. He also threw a costly interception in the first quarter, which was picked off by USU junior S Shaq Bond and returned 48 yards for the first touchdown of the game. The second pick-six of Bond’s career gave the Aggies a 7-3 lead with six minutes remain-ing in the opening quarter. Bond finished with eight tackles, including a career-best 1.5 tackles for loss, and a pass breakup. Junior LB David Woodward led Utah State with 13 stops, his 11th career double-digit tackle outing. Senior CB DJ Williams added a career-best 12 tackles, including 11 of the solo variety. Senior DE Tipa Galeai tied his career high with 3.0 tackles for loss for the Aggies, senior CB Cameron Haney added a career-high-tying three pass breakups and junior LB Kevin Meitzenheimer had nine tackles to match his personal best. Senior graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner was Love’s favorite target on the night as he caught seven passes for 74 yards. Junior WR Savon Scarver added five receptions for 90 yards, both of which were career highs. San Diego State took the opening kickoff and ate up more than seven minutes off the clock, but had to settle for a 22-yard field goal by Matt Araiza to give the hosts a 3-0 lead. Utah State proceeded to score the next 23 points, beginning with Bond’s pick-six. Field goals of 30 and 29 yards, respectively, by Eberle made it 13-3 with 3:27 to play in the first half, but the Aggies weren’t done putting points on the board. Utah State forced SDSU to punt late in the half and the Aggies took over on their own 20 with 1:15 remaining. Seven plays and 80 yards later, USU was in the end zone courtesy of an 11-yard touchdown run by Warren to give the guests a 20-3 lead at the break.

Junior RB Jaylen Warren (20) carried the ball 17 times for 74 yards and scored the only offensive touchdown of the night for the Aggies on an 11-yard run in Utah State’s 23-17 Mountain West road win at San Diego State.

Junior S Shaq Bond (4) had eight tackles, including a ca-reer-best 1.5 tackles for loss, and returned an interception 48 yards for a touchdown against the Aztecs.

LOGAN, Utah - Senior RB Gerold Bright rushed for 179 yards on 36 carries, both career highs, and Utah State overcame four turnovers in a 34-24 Mountain West home win against Colorado State on Saturday, Sept. 28, 2019. Bright finished with 198 all-purpose yards as he also caught two passes for 19 yards in the cold and rain. Utah State (3-1, 2-0 Mountain West) finished with 444 yards of total of-fense, including 240 on the ground. Defensively, the Aggies limited the Rams (1-4, 0-1 MW) to 296 yards of total offense, including just 70 yards on the ground from Marvin Kinsey Jr., who racked up 246 yards rushing a week ago against Toledo. Junior LB David Woodward recorded up a game-high 14 tackles for Utah State. He also forced two fumbles and recovered one of them, which he returned for an 8-yard touchdown to essentially seal CSU’s fate. Junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. added a career-best 11 tackles, including 1.0 sacks and 3.0 tackles for loss, which were also career highs. Senior DE Tipa Galeai tallied six tackles, a career-best four quarterback hurries and his first-career fumble recovery. Senior CB Cameron Haney had six tackles, as well, a career-high-tying three pass breakups and his first-career forced fumble. The game was delayed before the two teams even kicked off because of lightning. Utah State, which extended its home winning streak to nine, battled back from three separate seven-point deficits in the first half as Colorado State turned a blocked punt and interception into 14 points. Following a blocked punt, the Rams struck first courtesy of a 2-yard touchdown run to make it 7-0 with 7:14 remaining in the opening quarter. Just 13 seconds later, the Aggies answered back with a 100-yard kickoff return for touchdown by junior WR Savon Scarver. It was Scarver’s fourth-career kickoff return for touchdown, which tied the school record previously set by Kevin Robinson. CSU regained the lead early in the second quarter on a 1-yard touchdown by Kinsey, but again, the Aggies answered right back – less than two minutes later. Junior QB Jordan Love, who was 17-of-33 passing for 204 yards and two touchdowns, connected with sophomore WR Deven Thompkins from 37 yards out to knot the game at 14-apiece.

BATON ROUGE, La. - Utah State stepped out of Mountain West play and into SEC country, losing 42-6 to No. 5 LSU on Saturday, Oct. 5, 2019. For Utah State, it was the first time in did not score a touchdown in 91 games, dating back to the 2012 season. Senior PK Dominik Eberle provided the lone points for the Aggies (3-2, 2-0 MW), convert-ing on field goals of 30 and 47 yards, respectively, in the first half. LSU’s defense gave Utah State QB Jordan Love and the Aggies fits all afternoon. The junior signal caller was just 15-for-30 for 130 yards and three interceptions. Junior WR Jordan Nathan was Love’s top target, hauling in four passes for 51 yards, while graduate transfer senior WR Siaosi Mariner had two receptions for 45 yards. Junior WR Savon Scarver also had two receptions for 20 yards and sophomore WR Deven Thompkins had two receptions for 18 yards. The Aggies, who were 1-for-12 on third downs, finished with just 159 yards of total of-fense and 10 first downs. Senior RB Gerold Bright finished the game with 18 rushing yards on eight carries, while freshman RB Enoch Nawahine carried the ball seven times for 10 ayrds. Joe Burrow was 27-of-38 for 344 yards and five touchdowns for the Tigers (5-0, 1-0 SEC), who racked up 601 yards of total offense – 353 through the air and 248 on the ground. Justin Jefferson caught nine passes for 155 yards and two touchdowns, while Thaddeus Moss, Derrick Dillon and Ja’Marr Chase caught one touchdown apiece. Junior LB David Woodward and fellow junior LB Kevin Meitzenheimer led the Aggies’ defensive effort with 16 and 13 tackles, apiece. Meitzenheimer, who had a career-high in tackles, also forced one fumble, the first of his career. Junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. added 10 stops, to go along with his first-career forced fumble and fumble recovery for Utah State, which fell to 0-3 all-time against LSU. Senior CB DJ Williams and sophomore CB Andre Grayson each added six tackles, which was a career high for Grayson. Utah State trailed 21-6 at the break, but it could have been much closer than that. Eb-erle’s first field goal came after senior CB Cameron Haney intercepted a pass by Burrow and returned it 19 yards to the Tigers’ 7-yard line. However, the Aggies lost six yards on the drive, settling for Eberle’s 30-yarder that made it 7-3 for LSU. Eberle’s second field goal of the game came following a 5-play, 35-yard drive for Utah State that cut the LSU lead to 7-6 late in the first quarter. With Utah State trailing 14-6 and driving in the second quarter, Love was intercepted by LSU’s Derek Stingley at the Tigers’ 1-yard line. Burrow proceeded to march the hosts 99 yards in 13 plays, capped by a 25-yard touchdown pass to give the Tigers their halftime lead. LSU controlled the game as it possessed the ball for 41:03, largely in part to the fact that it was 11-of-17 on third downs. Utah State did force two turnovers in the game and had a chance for two more, as LSU fumbled it three times on the day. Freshman P Pierce Callister had a solid day for Utah State as he punted a career high seven times for an average of 39.0 yards per punt with a long of 47 yards, while two of his punts were downed inside the 20-yard line.

Junior LB Kevin Meitzenheimer (33) posted his first-ever double-digit tackle outing with a career-high 13 stops, to go along with his first-career forced fumble, in Utah State’s 42-6 loss at fifth-ranked LSU.

Junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. (3) had 10 tackles, to go along with his first-ever forced fumble and fumble recovery, against the Tigers.

LOGAN, Utah - Senior RB Gerold Bright eclipsed the 100-yard plateau for the seventh time in his career, racking up 126 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries, in Utah State’s 36-10 Mountain West home win against Nevada on Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019, on Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium. With the win, the Aggies (4-2, 3-0 Mountain West) pulled into a first-place tie atop the Mountain Division standings. USU also won its 10th straight home game and improved to 17-4 all-time against teams from the West Division of the Conference. Bright scored on touchdown runs of 67 and 9 yards, respectively, in the fourth quarter. Utah State finished with 244 yards on the ground as part of its 418 total yards. Junior RB Jaylen Warren churned out 73 yards rushing on 12 carries. Junior WR Savon Scarver had a record-setting night for Utah State as he returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown. It was his fifth-career kickoff return for touchdown, including second this season, which set the all-time school record. The old mark of four kickoff returns for touchdowns was previously set by Kevin Robinson (2004-07). Nevada (4-3, 1-2 MW) had no answer for Utah State’s defense. The Aggies forced an eye-popping 10 three-and-outs and the Wolf Pack only had four drives that were more than three plays the entire game. Nevada finished with 326 yards of total offense (213 passing, 113 rushing). Utah State junior LB David Woodward was the lone player to record double-digit tackles on the night with 11, marking the 14th time in his career he has accomplished that feat. Sophomore CB Andre Grayson had a career night for the Aggies as he had nine tackles, including 2.0 tackles for loss and 1.0 sacks, three pass breakups and two forced fumbles. As a team, Utah State tallied a season-high nine pass breakups. After Nevada opened the game’s scoring with a 23-yard field goal by Brandon Talton, Utah State proceeded to score the next 36 points. Scarver ignited the onslaught with his kickoff return for touchdown. Redshirt junior DE Justus Te’i made it 9-3 for the Aggies late in the first quarter when he recorded Utah State’s first safety since 2015 against Fresno State. Sandwiched in between a pair of field goals (29 and 32 yards, respectively) by senior PK Dominik Eberle was a 13-yard touch-down pass from junior QB Jordan Love to senior grad transfer TE Caleb Repp, helping USU open a 22-3 lead at the break. Love was 13-of-31 for 169 yards on the night, while his Nevada counter-part, Malik Henry, was 17-of-38 for 213 yards and two interceptions – one by junior S Shaq Bond and the other by junior LB Kevin Meitzenheimer. Bright’s fourth-quarter touchdown runs sealed the deal for the Aggies, who won their 10th straight at home, tying the 1923-27 teams for the fourth-longest home winning streak in school history. Junior P Christopher Bartolic punted a season-high seven times for the Aggies for an average of 40.1 yards per punt and had a season-best five of his punts downed inside the 20-yard line. Bartolic also had a pair of 53-yard punts in the game.

Senior RB Gerold Bright (1) posted his seventh-career 100-yard rushing game as he carried the ball 15 times for 126 yards and scored a season-high two touchdowns in Utah State’s 36-10 Mountain West home win against Nevada.

Sophomore CB Andre Grayson (21) had nine tackles, in-cluding 1.0 sack and 2.0 tackles for loss, to go along with three pass breakups and two forced fumbles against the Wolf Pack. All of those numbers are career highs.

USAFA, Colo. - Three different Air Force players rushed for at least 88 yards and combined for four touchdowns as the Falcons posted a 31-7 Mountain West home win against Utah State on Saturday, Oct. 26, 2019. The Aggies (4-3, 3-1 Mountain West) had trouble moving the ball all night against Air Force, which limited Utah State to just 128 total yards and seven first downs. In fact, USU did not record its initial first down until the second quarter, which proved to be the only time they moved the sticks during the first 30 minutes of play. The Falcons (6-2, 4-1 MW), who improved to 4-0 at home this season, led 17-0 at halftime following a pair of 1-yard touchdown runs by Timothy Jackson and Kadin Remsburg, and a 57-yard field goal from Jake Koehnke. Jackson finished with 148 yards rushing and the one touchdown on 25 carries, Remsburg added 92 yards and two scores on 16 carries, and Taven Birdow finished the night with 88 yards and one touchdown on 18 carries. Air Force racked up 472 yards of total offense, including 448 yards on the ground. The Falcons had 30 first downs – holding USU to just seven in the process – and held the ball for nearly 46 minutes on the cold and windy night. The Aggies, who have lost three straight on the road to Air Force, showed some life in the third quarter. USU took the second-half kickoff and marched 75 yards in nine plays, capped by a 27-yard touchdown pass from junior QB Jordan Love to senior graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner, cutting the deficit to 17-7. Utah State then forced the Falcons to punt on the ensuing possession, but Air Force’s Charlie Scott pinned the Aggies on their own 1-yard line. Utah State went three-and-out on its series, and punted the ball back to Air Force. The Falcons scored touchdowns on their next two drives to put the game away for good. Love finished 14-of-23 passing for 114 yards. Sophomore WR Deven Thompkins led the Aggies with six receptions for 26 yards, while Mariner caught three passes for 38 yards, including his 27-yard touchdown. Defensively, Utah State forced a pair of fumbles on Air Force’s first two series. Senior CB DJ Williams recovered the first one for the Aggies that was forced by fellow senior CB Cameron Haney, while junior graduate transfer DE Nick Heninger recovered the second that was forced by senior DE Devon Anderson. Heninger also forced a fumble and had a sack in the game. Unfortunately for Utah State, the offense couldn’t do anything with the takeaways. The Aggies had three defensive players with double-digit tackles, led by Williams, who had a career-high 14 stops. Junior S Shaq Bond had a career-high 12 tackles, and junior linebacker David Woodward added 11 stops for his fifth-straight double-digit tackle outing. Senior PK Dominik Eberle scored one point in the game to give him 308 in his career, which is tied with Robert Turbin for the most in school history. Junior P Christopher Bartolic punted a season-high eight times for an average of 45.5 yards, which in-cluded a career-long 71-yarder, which is the 11th-longest in school history. Bartolic also had two punts downed inside the 20-yard line.

Junior QB Jordan Love (10) was 14-of-23 passing for 114 yards and one touchdown in Utah State’s 31-7 Mountain West road loss at Air Force.

Senior CB DJ Williams (7) had a career-high 14 tackles and recovered his first-career fumble against the Falcons.

FRESNO, Calif. - Senior PK Dominik Eberle kicked three field goals, including the game-winner from 30 yards out as time expired, to lift Utah State to a thrilling 37-35 victory over Fresno State at Bulldog Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2019. It marked the first time since 1998 that Utah State kicked a field goal to win the game. That year, Brad Bohn kicked a 30-yarder with five seconds left as the Aggies edged North Texas, 28-27. Eberle also connected on field goals of 39 and 25 yards, respectively, as Utah State (5-4, 4-1 Mountain West) scored the final six points of the game. With his trifecta against the Bulldogs (4-5, 2-3 MW), Eberle tied the conference record for most career field goals made at 57. Down 35-34, Utah State drove to the Fresno State 2-yard line, where the Aggies were stuffed on four consecutive running plays and turned the ball over on downs with 5:19 to go. However, the defense got the ball back for Utah State when the Aggies forced Fresno State to go three-and-out. Utah State took over on its own 47-yard line with 3:05 left and all the momentum on its side. Junior QB Jordan Love drove the Aggies to the Fresno State 10-yard line. Two plays later, Eberle connected on the game-winner following a perfect snap and hold from junior LS Brandon Pada and redshirt senior H Aaron Dalton, respectively. Love, who grew up less than two hours away from Bulldog Stadium, passed for 388 yards and two touchdowns – both to senior graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner – as Utah State snapped a two-game losing streak. Mariner led all receivers in the game with 11 catches for 103 yards, while senior graduate transfer TE Caleb Repp added five receptions for 75 yards. Senior RB Gerold Bright rushed for 79 yards and one touchdown on 14 carries. Junior RB Jaylen Warren also had a touchdown run of his own as he carried the ball 12 times for 30 yards. Junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. and fellow junior S Shaq Bond had seven and six tackles, re-spectively, for the Aggies. Fresno State QB Jorge Reyna was 16-of-20 passing for 263 yards. Running back Ronnie Rivers led all rushers with 17 carries for 102 yards and three touchdowns. Utah State took its first lead just before the end of the first half when Mariner caught his second touchdown pass of the night, an 8-yarder from Love on third-and-goal, to make it 21-14. Junior WR Jordan Nathan helped set the score up when he hauled in a 36-yard pass from Love in traffic down the middle. Mariner also caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from Love with 7:59 to go in the second quarter to square the game up at 14-apiece. Utah State’s other touchdown of the first half came courtesy of Bright’s 21-yard run to tie the game at 7-all late in the first quarter. Rivers accounted for both of the Bulldogs’ touchdowns during the first 30 minutes of play, one on a 10-yard run and the other from 2 yards out. The Aggies opened their largest lead of the night at 28-14 after taking the second-half kickoff and marching 60 yards on eight plays, capped by Warren’s 6-yard touchdown run. Eberle’s first field goal of the night gave the Aggies a 31-21 lead with 5:16 left in the third quarter. The Bulldogs moved back in front following touch-down runs by Rivers and Jalen Cropper, making it 35-31 with 14:11 remaining in the fourth.

Junior QB Jordan Love (10) was 30-of-39 passing for 388 yards and two touchdowns in Utah State’s 37-35 Mountain West road win at Fresno State.

Senior PK Dominik Eberle (62) was 3-of-3 on field goals, including the game-winner from 30 yards as time expired.

LOGAN, Utah - Junior QB Jordan Love was 18-of-29 passing for 282 yards and two touchdowns and redshirt junior LB Eric Munoz posted 13 tackles and two interceptions in Utah State’s 26-21 Mountain West home win against Wyoming on Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019. Munoz, a walk-on who was making his first-career start, had just eight total tackles in seven previous appearances for the Aggies, but posted his first-ever double-digit tackle outing against the Cowboys and culminated his performance by intercepting Wyoming QB Tyler Vander Waal with just over a minute remaining at the USU 25-yard line. Overall, it was Munoz’s second interception of the game as he returned the first one 51 yards to the Wyoming 2-yard line, setting up a 23-yard field goal by senior PK Dominik Eberle that gave the Aggies a 26-14 lead with 11:11 remaining in the game. With the win, Utah State (6-4, 5-1 Mountain West) became bowl eligible and remained in the hunt for the Mountain Division title, while the Cowboys (6-4, 3-3 MW) lost a heartbreaker for the second-consecutive week. Munoz accounted for half of Utah State’s takeaways in the game as junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. forced and recovered a fumble in the first quarter at the USU 30-yard line, while fellow junior S Shaq Bond intercepted a pass of his own late in the second quarter that led to an Aggie field goal. Lefeged finished with a career-high 12 tackles, while junior linebacker Kevin Meitzenheimer added 12 stops. Coming in, Wyoming had only turned the ball over five times to rank second in the nation only to see USU force four turnovers on the day. Wyoming’s defense came into the Bridger’s Battle showdown ranked 14th in the nation in scoring defense at 17.9 points allowed per game, but gave up 20 to USU in the second quarter alone. USU finished the game with 422 yards of total offense, including 317 through the air, while Wyoming had 343 total yards. Utah State scored 12 straight points on four Eberle field goals (47, 44, 26 and 23 yards) to open its 12-point lead early in the fourth. With his four field goals, Eberle set both the USU and Mountain West record for field goals made in a career with 61. The previous school record was 59 set by Brad Bohn (1997-2000), while the previous MW record was 57 set by Utah’s Louis Sakoda (2005-08). Senior graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner led all receivers in the game with a career-high 123 yards on four catches, including a career-long 80-yard touchdown that tied it at 7-apiece early in the second quarter. Wyoming scored first following a 10-yard interception return for a touchdown. Utah State took its first lead of the day on a 35-yard touchdown pass from Love to senior RB Gerold Bright, who finished the game with 56 rushing yards on 17 carries and 44 receiving yards on three receptions. Utah State added six more points in the second quarter on a pair of Eberle field goals, and extended its lead to 26-14 early in the fourth quarter fol-lowing two more Eberle field goals. Vander Waal’s 5-yard keeper for Wyoming cut the deficit to 26-21 with 6:52 to go, but the Cowboys could not complete the comeback. Vander Waal finished 20-of-36 for 185 yards and the three picks, to go along with two touchdown runs.

Junior QB Jordan Love (10) was 18-of-29 passing for 282 yards and two touchdowns in Utah State’s 26-21 Mountain West home win against Wyoming. Love also carried the ball nine times for 33 yards.

Redshirt junior LB Eric Munoz (38) had a career-high 13 tackles, including 0.5 tackles for loss, to go along with the first two interceptions of his career against the Cowboys.

FRISCO, Texas - Utah State closed out the 2019 season with a 51-41 loss to Kent State in the 2019 Tropical Smoothie Cafe Frisco Bowl at Toyota Stadium on Friday, Dec. 20, 2019. Junior QB Jordan Love was 30-of-39 passing for 317 yards and three touchdowns, including two to senior graduate transfer WR Siaosi Mariner. Love set a USU bowl game record with his 30 completions, while Mariner tied the USU bowl game record for touchdown receptions. Mariner had seven catches for 113 yards. His 11-yard touchdown reception with 3:06 to go in the game pulled the Aggies (7-6) to within 44-41. However, Kent State recovered a squib kick on the ensuing kickoff and returned it 44 yards, setting up the final touchdown for the Golden Flashes (7-6). Crum, tabbed the Offensive MVP of the game, accounted for 436 yards of total offense and three touchdowns. He was 21-of-26 for 289 yards and two touchdowns through the air, to go along with a game-best 147 yards and the one fourth-quarter score on 23 carries. In his final game as an Aggie, Love set the school record for total offense in a career. He had 333 yards against Kent State, including 16 on the ground, to give him 9,003 total career yards. The old mark of 8,808 yards was previously held by fellow quarterback Chuckie Keeton (2011-15), who was on the sideline cheering his alma mater on Friday night. Senior RB Gerold Bright led the Aggies on the ground with 94 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries. Sophomore WR Deven Thompkins scored on a 57-yard run early in the fourth quarter to pull Utah State to tie the game at 34-all. Thompkins also caught four passes for 51 yards and a touchdown, while junior WR Jordan Nathan led Utah State with nine receptions for 71 yards. Senior PK Dominik Eberle ended his stellar Utah State career by kicking a pair of field goals from 41 and 45 yards, respectively, and making all five of his extra points. His 45-yard field goal is the longest by an Aggie in a bowl game. The Aggies finished with 506 yards of total offense, while the Golden Flashes had 550. Two players finished with double-digit tackles for Utah State, led by a career-high 14 stops from junior S Troy Lefeged Jr., which is also a USU bowl game record. Redshirt freshman DE Elijah Shelton added a career-high 10 tackles. Lefeged also forced a fumble, which was recovered by junior DE Nick Heninger. Utah State got the ball to start the game and scored on its opening possession. Bright capped the 10-play, 75-yard drive with a 4-yard touchdown run to give the Aggies a 7-0 lead less than three minutes in. Kent State also scored on its opening possession on a 78-yard touchdown pass. The Golden Flashes made it 17-7 late in the first quarter on a 2-yard run and a 40-yard field goal. Utah State pulled within 17-10 when Eberle made a 41-yard field goal with three seconds left in the opening quarter. A 25-yard touchdown pass from Love to Mariner tied it at 17-all with 8:24 left in the second quarter. Kent State went into the halftime break with a 23-17 lead after field goals of 22 and 36 yards, respectively. After falling behind 26-17 early in the third, Utah State rallied to take its final lead of the game when Thompkins scored on a 17-yard pass from Love and Eberle booted his 45-yard field game to make it 27-26 with 2:27 left in the quarter.

Junior QB Jordan Love (10) was 30-of-39 passing for 317 yards and three touchdowns in Utah State’s 51-41 loss to Kent State in the Tropical Smoothie Cafe Frisco Bowl. Love also carried the ball 10 times for 16 yards. Those 30 completions are a bowl record for USU.

Junior S Troy Lefeged Jr. (7) set a USU bowl game record with a career-high 14 tackles to go along with a forced fumble against the Golden Flashes.

UTAH STATE FACILITIES

/// NEW FACILITIES AT UTAH STATE OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS ///• Over the last decade, Utah State Athletics has focused on improving its infrastructure and now has some of the best facilities not only in the Mountain West, but in the Western United States, with the additions of the Jim & Carol Laub Athletics-Academics Complex, the ICON Sports Performance Center, the Wayne Estes Center and the West Stadium Center at Maverik Stadium.

WEST STADIUM CENTER AT MAVERIK STADIUMCompleted in August of 2016, the $36 million, 85,000 square-feet West Stadium Center is a new four-story premium seating and press box struc-ture inside Maverik Stadium. The structure includes a state-of-the-art media and game operations area, 20 luxury suites, 20 loge boxes, over 700 covered club seats and a premium club area that will also be used to host a student-athlete training table. Renovations to Maverik Stadium in 2016 also included new video boards on both the north and south ends of the stadium, and a new public address system.

WAYNE ESTES CENTERCompleted in May of 2014, the $9.7 million, 32,000 square-foot Wayne Estes Center is a basketball practice facility and volleyball competition venue that contains two regulation-size basketball courts and a regulation-size volleyball competition court with chair-back seating for 1,400 fans, along with a training room and in-season strength and conditioning area. Office space for both men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball is also included in the facility, as well as a locker room and film room for volleyball. Ticketing and concession services are also available on Game Days. Located inside the foyer of the Wayne Estes Center is a visual tribute of the building’s namesake.
