Why should you pick Utah State (-6.5)?
The Aggies went 6-6, good for fifth places in the Mountain Division of the MOuntain West Conference. Chuckie Keeton will be the quarterback in the bowl game, with 892 yards and three touchdowns (but six interceptions). On the ground, Devante Mays has led the way, picking up 842 yards and scoring nine touchdowns. The Aggies give up 27 points per game while scoring 29.5 points, and their defensive leader is Nick Vigil, who has 140 tackles. This is a team that can run all over an opponent if their defense can keep the other side from getting out to an early lead.
