Colorado State missed the mark.
If they could just beat a Fresno State team that was having a bad game, they would have been in the running for the Mountain West Championship. But they didn’t.
The Rams’ offense did not work, so they will have to settle for being the third-best team in their conference for a bowl spot.
Utah State has been doing well lately. Both on and off the field, it is been a rough year, but the Aggies have won three of their last four games since starting the year 1-6. The offense has been really good.
No bowl game is in the cards, but a win would give them a lot of momentum going into the off-season.

Utah State vs Colorado State: Who Will Win?
The Utah State running game has been fantastic. It ripped through Hawaii for 321 yards, followed it up with 322 against San Diego State, and it should all do well against Colorado State.
Aggie QB Bryson Barnes went off on the Aztecs, RB Rahul Faison was terrific against the Rainbow Warriors, and …
The defense is about to get ripped to shreds.
Utah State has the nation’s fourth-worst defense in total yards allowed. Even after holding down the ground games over the last few weeks, it’s about to bear the brunt of a Colorado State ground game coming off the clunker against Fresno State.
The Rams will move the ball however they want to on the way to over 500 yards in a fun back-and-forth fight for a half.
And then it’ll be all Colorado State.
