The Utah State Aggies football team represents Utah State University (USU) in college football at the NCAA Division I FBS level. The Aggies compete in the Pac-12 Conference (Pac-12). Established in 1892, Utah State is one of the oldest football programs in the western United States and has played its home games at Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium in Logan, Utah since 1968.

Utah State has won thirteen conference championships across four different leagues, most recently in 2021. It has produced multiple All-Americans, a Professional Football Hall of Fame inductee Merlin Olsen, and numerous NFL players. The program's modern era has been marked by periods of national recognition, including Top-25 finishes, division titles, and bowl victories in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2018, and 2021.

On July 2, 2024, defensive coordinator Nate Dreiling was named interim head coach after head coach Blake Anderson was placed on administrative leave and subsequently terminated for alleged violations of reporting requirements.[2] In December 2024, Utah State hired former BYU and Virginia head coach Bronco Mendenhall to lead the program, signing him to a six-year, $12.9 million contract beginning with the 2025 season.

The Aggies have appeared in eighteen bowl games, winning six: the 2021 LA Bowl against the Oregon State Beavers, the 2018 and 2014 New Mexico Bowls, the 2013 Poinsettia Bowl, the 2012 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, and the 1993 Las Vegas Bowl against the Ball State Cardinals.[3]

History

[edit]

Early history

[edit]

The first intercollegiate athletic event in Utah State University's history took place on November 25, 1892, when the Agriculturalists defeated the football team from the University of Utah, 12–0.[4] The game was played on what is now the quad, and it was the only game until 1896. The Aggies enjoyed early regional dominance, notching their first perfect season (7–0) in 1907.[5] In 1911, under head coach Clayton Teetzel, the team again finished undefeated, even shutting out each of its five opponents by a collective score of 164–0.[6] Hall of Fame. The makeshift field on the quad continued to serve the team until 1913, when football was moved to Adams Field, two blocks west of campus, where Adams Park now sits. The new field represented an improvement, but the facilities remained meager, a fact that became more apparent with the success of Coach E. L. "Dick" Romney, who came to Logan in 1918. Romney, for whom the current football stadium is named, led the team to its first-ever conference championship in 1921 and compiled a 128–91–16 record over 29 seasons.

Recent history

[edit]

The program continued a rich legacy throughout the early and mid-20th century, when the program produced a large number of athletes who went on to play in the NFL, including the legendary brothers and consensus All-Americans Merlin Olsen and Phil Olsen, who played for the Aggies. It was during this time that Utah State finished two seasons with year-end Top 25 rankings: No. 10 in 1961 and No. 19 in 1972.[5]

Following the great heights of the 1960s and 70s, Aggie football fell upon hard times. Many longtime Aggie supporters attribute the decline to administrators at both Utah and BYU freezing then-superior USU out of the newly forming WAC. However, other factors cited as leading to the decline include a failure to upgrade facilities until recently, a lack of donors to athletics, complacency of past athletics directors, and instability in conferences.[7]

After continual failed attempts to join the WAC, the program played as an independent program from 1962 to 1977 (until joining the PCAA/Big West in 1978). The program again played as an independent from 2001 to 2002 before joining the geographically distant Sun Belt Conference after the Big West Conference, which had housed the Aggies since 1978, elected to stop sponsoring football in 2001. USU's other teams remained in that conference until the school was finally invited to join the WAC in 2005. Despite having lobbied for years to join its in-state rivals Utah and BYU in the WAC, the Aggies gained membership only after the two other schools had left to form the Mountain West Conference. Later on, Utah State joined the Mountain West Conference in July 2013, again following departures by Utah and BYU.

Gary Andersen era (2009–2012)

[edit]

In December 2008, Gary Andersen became the head coach of the Aggies, replacing Brent Guy following the unsuccessful 2008 season. Andersen would lead the team to new heights. In 2011, he led the team to the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl and the team's first winning season since 1997. The 2012 team found far greater success, notching the school's first double-digit win season, the first outright conference championship since 1936, a return to the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl for the first bowl win in 19 years, and a national Top 25 ranking in three major ranking systems: the AP poll, the ESPN/USA Today poll, and the BCS.

Andersen left the program following the 2012 season to become the new head coach for the University of Wisconsin.

Matt Wells era (2013–2018)

[edit]

In December 2012, Matt Wells, Andersen's former offensive coordinator, was hired as the new head coach of the Utah State Aggies. Wells coached the Aggies in their inaugural year as members of the Mountain West Conference. Despite multiple injuries to offensive starters, the Aggies earned a berth in the first Mountain West Conference Football Championship Game, which they lost to Fresno State by a score of 17–24.[8] Coach Wells was awarded the Mountain West Coach of the Year award[9] and the Aggies defeated Northern Illinois in the Poinsettia Bowl by a score of 21–14. At the conclusion of the 2018 regular season, Matt Wells left to accept the head coaching job at Texas Tech University.[10]

Return of Gary Andersen (2019–2020)

[edit]

After Matt Wells left for Texas Tech following the 2018 season, Gary Andersen returned as head coach of the Utah State Aggies, beginning his second stint as Utah State's head coach in 2019. On November 7, 2020, Andersen and Utah State agreed to part ways after starting 0–3 during the 2020 season. Defensive coordinator Frank Maile was named the interim head coach of the Utah State Aggies for the remainder of the season.

Blake Anderson era (2021–2024)

[edit]

On December 12, 2020, Blake Anderson was hired as the head coach of the Utah State Aggies football team, replacing Gary Andersen following an unsuccessful 2020 season. In his first season at the helm, Anderson guided the team to a 9–3 regular season record, good for the Mountain Division championship, as well as the conference championship with a victory over San Diego State. On July 2, 2024, it was announced that Anderson was placed on administrative leave with intent to fire and was unlikely to return due to alleged noncompliance with Title IX policies.[11] Nate Dreiling was named interim head coach.[12]

Conference affiliations

[edit]

Utah State has been affiliated with multiple conferences and played as an independent.[13][better source needed]

Season-by-season results

[edit]

Since first fielding a team in 1892, Utah State has completed more than 130 seasons of intercollegiate football across multiple conferences, including the Rocky Mountain Conference, Mountain States Conference, Big West, Sun Belt, Western Athletic Conference, Mountain West Conference, and beginning in 2026, the Pac-12 Conference.

Rivalries

[edit]

Utah State has a number of both old and new rivals. Older rivals include the Brigham Young University, Cougars (Battle for the Old Wagon Wheel/Beehive Boot Trophy); the University of Utah, Utes (Battle of the Brothers/Beehive Boot Trophy); and the University of Wyoming, Cowboys and Cowgirls (Bridger's Battle/Bridger's Rifle Trophy).

The Battle of the Brothers (Utah vs. Utah State) is the oldest FBS Division I college football rivalry in the United States between two public universities in the same state with the first formal game played between the two "brothers" at Utah State in Logan, Utah on November 25, 1892.

BYU

[edit]

The Cougars and Aggies started playing in 1922. BYU and Utah State have met for the Old Wagon Wheel 65 times, dating back to 1948. BYU had beaten Utah State ten straight times before Utah State defeated BYU 31–16 on October 1, 2010. With the victory, Utah State reclaimed the Old Wagon Wheel for the first time since 1993. The Old Wagon Wheel returned to Logan on October 3, 2014, when the Aggies defeated BYU 35–20. BYU is often referred to in the local media as being the chief rival of Utah State University. It is the second oldest rivalry for both schools.

Utah

[edit]

The Battle of the Brothers refers to the rivalry between Utah State and Utah. The two teams have a long-running football series, which, at 113 games, is tied for the seventh-most-played rivalry in Division I FBS football. The Battle of the Brothers is the oldest FBS Division I college football rivalry in the United States between two public universities in the same state. Both programs played the first game in their respective histories against each other in Logan on November 25, 1892, which the Aggies won 12–0. The two teams played every year from 1944 to 2009, but the series took a two-year hiatus in 2010 and 2011. On September 7, 2012, the Aggies snapped the 12-game losing streak, beating Utah 27–20 (OT) in Logan.[15][16] The game was not played in 2014. The series continued in 2015 at Rice-Eccles Stadium, with Utah winning 24–14. Utah and Utah State agreed to renew the series with the next game to be played in Logan, Utah in 2024.

The meaning of "Battle of the Brothers" refers to the close connectivity, friendship, and mutual respect between the two official flagship universities of the state of Utah: Bigger Brother (Utah) and Little Brother (Utah State) -- having deep respect for each other, but "fighting like brothers".

Wyoming

[edit]

Utah State and Wyoming first played in 1903, making the rivalry one of the oldest for both schools. Early on, the teams met annually as members of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference from 1916 to 1937 and later the Mountain States Conference from 1938 to 1961. The teams continued to play each other frequently from 1962 to 1978, before taking an extended hiatus until 2001. The rivalry was renewed on an annual basis when Utah State joined the Mountain West Conference for the 2013 season (in the same division as Wyoming), in a game now billed as "Bridger's Battle" after American frontiersman Jim Bridger. The trophy for the winning team is a .50-caliber Rocky Mountain Hawken rifle.[17]

Ralston was named head coach at Utah State University in 1959. In four years there, he compiled a 31–11–1 record and won two Skyline Conference championships. Ralston moved to Stanford University in 1963 and compiled a 55–36–3 record over nine seasons. In his last two seasons, 1970–1971, Ralston's teams won two Pacific-8 titles and notched back-to-back Rose Bowl victories over Ohio State and Michigan, both of whom were undefeated coming into the Rose Bowl game. Under Ralston's tutelage, Stanford quarterback Jim Plunkett won the Heisman Trophy in 1970. John Ralston was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1992.

Merlin Olsen was first honored by the National Football Foundation in 1961, when he was chosen as one of the top scholar-athletes. He was a 1st Team Consensus All-America tackle at Utah State and winner of the Outland Trophy as the nation's best interior lineman. In 1980, Olsen was enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame. He was the first to be a scholar-athlete winner and later a Hall of Famer. Olsen went on the play with the Los Angeles Rams. In both collegiate and pro play, he was known as a bruising, hard-hitting defensive lineman. Off the field, Olsen was known to be an intelligent and compassionate scholar. Following his pro football days, Olsen went into television, starring in "The Little House on the Prairie", and then into sports broadcasting as a member of the NBC Sports. He was known as a 'Tough Guy' on the field, 'Mr. Nice Guy' off the field.

LaVell Edwards was an American football head coach for Brigham Young University (BYU). With 257 career victories, he ranks as one of the most successful college football coaches of all time. Among his many notable accomplishments, Edwards guided BYU to a national championship in 1984 and coached Heisman Trophy winner Ty Detmer in 1990. Edwards played football for Utah State University and earned a master's degree before coaching at BYU, where he also earned his doctorate.
