Utah State predictions
- Thread starter Flatlandcoug
- Start date
Yeah, I think we bitch-slap them. Mateer goes wild. Lots for us and not so much for them. Martin crowd will be drunk and rather loud.
We're going to blow the doors off of the Aggies, but that's not on my mind.
What's on my mind is this:
We're 7-1.
We're ranked.
We have a chance to be 11-1.
Just the above, should be enough....but it's not.
Fast forward....
Dickert and team run out of the tunnel Saturday night at 7:25pm, and look up at the crowd, Martin Stadium, home game, 7-1, and ranked.
And what do they see?
They see a ton of empty seats.
Why? Let's look at the reasons why there's going to be a ton of empty seats with a 7-1 team, ranked in the CFP # 21:
Besides winning, what is the most important thing to CJD and our players?
Fans in the seats. But, unfortunately, it won't even be close to a sellout.
That's what's on my mind.

- Not a big brand, big name opponent.
- Pullman is hard to get to.
- It's a night game.
- It's going to be freezing.
- It's super expensive, (for a lot of fans, especially "the casual fan" to grab a hotel for the weekend. Even RV'rs, it's not inexpensive.
- It's cheaper, easier, and warmer with a huge 4K TV at home. Plus, you don't have to go very far for the comforts of home.

Did you see the O- line article on CF.C? It’s free.
Answers a lot of questions asked in this forum over the past 3-4 weeks regarding the O-line.
USU plays fast. They use no huddle and there will be a lot of plays this game. They lost receiver, Jalen Royals, during the NM game. He was probably the second-best receiver the Cougars would have faced this year, a potential second day NFL pick. That is huge for them and will hurt their offense. USU's defense is next level bad, maybe the worst in all of D1. USU 17, Cougs 55.
I'm thinking a repeat of the Hawaii game is what *should* happen, but I can also see Utah State scoring more points.
USU 21
WSU 41
