LOGAN, Utah-Fresh off of a 45-20 win over BYU last Friday, Utah State football returns home to Maverik Stadium in Logan for a Homecoming game against UNLV Saturday.
The 4-1 Aggies, starting with this game, will play the rest of the regular season exclusively within the Mountain West Conference.
The Aggies’ series against the Rebels dates back to 1971, with Utah State leading 16-7 all-time.
The Aggies have won four straight games against UNLV and seven of their last nine in this series.
Utah State has excelled on Homecoming traditionally as they are 53-32-2 (.621) all-time in such games and 3-0 against the Rebels when they’ve hosted them for Homecoming.
Including the win against BYU, Utah State is 14-11 (.560) in their last 25 October games and Sunday, the Aggies received votes in The Associated Press poll for the first time since October 18, 2015
The Aggies’ offense has been explosive since head coach Matt Wells took over ahead of the 2013 season as they have scored 50-plus points 10 times and 60 or more four times in his tenure.
