The number three Utah State football player in the Cache Valley Media Group Top 25 Aggies of 2024 is quarterback Spencer Petras.
Late last fall, Petras made the quick decision to come to Utah State and so far it’s paid off, with him earning the starting QB spot in spring camp and recently being named one of the captains of the team. Petras transferred from Iowa where he spent six seasons. He appeared in 37 games, starting 31 times and threw for 5,199 yards and 24 touchdowns.
This year, Petras is looking to bounce back from missing all of 2023 due to an injury, and also overcome some of his shortcomings with what was at times an anemic offense. He’ll have the benefit of being under center in what has been a very QB-friendly offensive system that’s filled with explosive playmakers.
The Top 25 Aggies is based on a vote from members of Utah State media including Jason Walker, Eric Frandsen, Craig Hislop and Ajay Salvesen. A public fan poll was also used with its results being used as a fifth ballot. The full list of 25 players will be revealed one at a time each weekday on the Full Court Press (106.9 FM, 1390 AM) at 4:25 p.m. from July 22 until August 26.
