Ten months ago Utah State had a lame duck president, an interim AD, a vacant mbb coaching position, a transfer portal exodus and an NIL problem. Credit Jerry Bovee for hiring Danny Sprinkle amid all that, and credit Sprinkle and his team for working their magic.

SDSU should be ranked cuz they're 11-2 with a win over the PAC-12 Champ. But the CFP folk are a bunch of clowns for sighting COVID as a reason to put SDSU over USU. Only two of their starters were out, and ALL 12 of their MW 1st and 2nd team players played. USU just whooped them.

As some in the Utah media flip USU’s success into a story of Utah and BYU’s failures, just savor every minute of it. It’s their job to cater to those fan bases. Just appreciate what Odom has built and enjoy watching outsiders twist themselves into knots over it.
