Cache Valley Daily: Bet Washington to get decisive win vs Utah State
Eric Frandsen writes: "Utah State's first road game
of the season will be against arguably the best team it will face all year. The Huskies also feature one of the nation's top quarterbacks. Even though Demond Williams Jr. tried to leave the team in January — creating unsettling feelings in the community and among teammates — he is a talented dual-threat QB. This is where we find out if USU's defensive gains in the back half of last season spill over into this season, or if they'll be overwhelmed by a high-powered Washington offense."

Andy Yamashita writes: "The Aggies went 6-7 in 2025, their final season in the Mountain West and their first under coach Bronco Mendenhall. The Pac-12 preseason media poll expects Utah State to finish seventh in 2026, with major questions surrounding its offense and quarterback situation after the departures of quarterback Bryson Barnes and offensive coordinator Kevin McGiven. Even with a more stable offensive situation, Utah State faces an uphill battle to beat Washington in Husky Stadium."
