Swagger Report--After Halloween is over

Utah State 58 Wyoming 27

The USU Aggies added more misery to what has already been a long season for the Wyoming Cowboys and rolled the visitors from Laramie.  Devante Mays was one of many offensive heroes for USU as he ran for 176 yards.  USU has not lost at home since Kyle Van Noy dismantled them two years ago.

USU MVP: RB Devante Mays

Utah 27 Oregon State 12

Sometimes when you have a bounce back game you need to win ugly.  It wasn't a pretty win for the Utes, but it was a dominating win.  It was much closer statistically than was indicated by the final score, proving what really matters in football, how often the fans get a hot dog break.  Now, with the USC loss officially behind them, they can concentrate on the Huskies.

Utah MVP: RB Devontae Booker

Southern Utah 54 Cal Poly 37

The Thunderbirds came a step closer to the Big Sky Conference championship this weekend with a big win over Cal Poly.  The difference, as usually for SUU, was the defense, scoring 21 points.  Without the defensive effort, the Mustangs would have won.

SUU MVP: LB Mike Needham

Eastern Washington 14 Weber State 13

WSU held EWU to their worst offensive outing in 12 years, holding the Eagles to just 189 yards.  WSU missed long field goals that would have won the game for them, but you can't fault PK Josh Kaelamakia's effort.  This year, at least Weber State has risen from conference doormat to being the team that others can't look past.  WSU closes out the season with two games at home, winning both would give the a winning record for the season, something that they haven't done for 5 years.

WSU MVP: S Josh Burton
