The Utah State Aggies loss against Wake Forest looks much better than it did at the time as they went head-to-head with what looks to be a dangerous team in the ACC. The Aggies once again have one of the better offenses in college football as they have Jordan Love under center who has proven time after time to get the job done. The Aggies have also shown the ability to be very good on the defensive side of the ball, and that could be problematic for the San Diego State Aztecs as they have been very inconsistent through the early part of the season. QB Ryan Agnew has struggled to gain any confidence through the air which means they are forced to run the ball which Utah State will key into. Final Score Prediction, Utah State Aggies win and cover ATS 28-21.
