Utah State’s football team has two choices Saturday when it faces North Texas in the New Mexico Bowl — wilt or win.
To win would be something the Aggies have gotten used to this season. They finished 10-2 overall with a 7-1 Mountain West Conference record. A loss to Boise State stopped their winning streak at 10 games, a first in school history.
Even the way Utah State wins games has been notable. The Aggies have claimed victory by an average margin of 34.4 points. They have scored at least 50 points seven times.
Or, the Aggies could wilt, as the team goes through a major upheaval in its coaching staff.
