LOGAN – Prior to the season, no one anticipated that this week’s matchup of Utah State and UNLV would be of any consequence, but it’s turned into a huge game for both sides. The Rebels are looking to validate their strong start and the Aggies are in desperate need of a turnaround. In different ways this week is a must-win for both sides, though it’s much more of a must-win for the Aggies, whose season could stumble completely out of control with a second straight home loss. USU head coach Blake Anderson has been a major critic of his own team this past week, repeatedly talking about his team’s shortcomings and his desire to see those improved. On Monday he re-iterated those points again, saying the team has been “our own worst enemy” and that they’ve not yet played “our best ball.” “We’ve played extremely hard but have not played well. We’ve got to put those two thing together,” Anderson said. “And no better time than this Saturday.” Here are the things to know as Utah State attempts to put into affect all the improvements it worked on during the bye week.
