ROAD WOE-RIORS: Next week will be Utah State's fourth consecutive road game. After closing the 2007 season at Idaho and New Mexico State, the Aggies open the 2008 campaign away from Logan with trips to Las Vegas and Oregon to face the Ducks.

Despite the two wins to close out last season, the road has been anything but kind to the Aggies during the Brent Guy era. In 22 road games, Guy's Aggies have won only three times.

The prospects of improving that winning percentage are not good as the Ducks have challenged for Pac-10 championships in recent years.

Of course, Romney Stadium hasn't been much better for the Aggies, where USU has won only three games for Guy.

SO-SO SETZER: After a great first quarter — 9-of-10 passing for 114 yards — Setzer struggled to keep his momentum going. The senior was only 1-of-5 in the second quarter and tossed an interception giving UNLV a chance to extend its lead just before halftime.
