Summary

On Friday, we'll see the Aggies and Cougars try and rise above some very unfortunate injuries.

More Coverage
  • Collie making impact in NFL

  • September was rough for Cougars

  • BYU is a big deal for Utah State

  • Cougars, Aggies, plenty in common

  • SDSU better under Hoke

Air Force 28, Navy 24: The Falcons didn't look interested at Wyoming but nothing will get the Falcons standing at attention faster than this battle for the Commander in Chief Trophy.

UTEP 21, New Mexico 10: The Lobos are fast becoming everyone's best friend now that Rocky Long's toughness is transplanted at San Diego State.

Toledo 17, Wyoming 14: The Cowboys are improved and have some weapons but this road trip isn't going to be a rodeo at all.

Nevada 28, UNLV 14: Colin Kaepernick could beat Harry Reid if he was running for Senate and he'll get plenty of statewide love in this instate game between two future MWC foes.

BYU 28, Utah State 21: BYU must fight off USU early and win the line of scrimmage battle. USU needs to score quick and force Cougar panic in Logan. Look for the Cougar offense to find a rhythm even with Gary Anderson trying to puzzle Jake Heaps.

Last week 5-1; overall 28-4 (.875)

Re: Dallas Aggie
