Utah State prepares for road matchup after home loss to Idaho State

The Utah State Aggies prepare for their upcoming game against the Huskies following a season-opening loss to Idaho State. Coach Bronco Mendenhall enters his second season with the program amid concerns regarding team discipline and offensive performance. The team recorded 11 penalties and four turnovers in the Week 1 defeat. Quarterback McCae Hillstead finished with three interceptions while completing 15 of 30 passes. Defensively, the unit utilized a 3-3-5 scheme to limit Idaho State to 152 passing yards, showing improvement against the pass compared to 2025. The Aggies now look to address these early-season issues as they move through their non-conference schedule before beginning Pac-12 play.
