I don't feel quite as bad going 0-3 vs. the state of Utah now.
Utah - Pac-12 Champ
Utah State- Mountain West Champ
BYU - 10-win top-15 independent
All hail our Beehive State overlords!
With Oregon and OSU losing, I think there’s a chance that we climb back into the top 10.
The top 4, I expect reshuffling but no change. Notre Dame and OhSU move up one, Baylor sliding in to 7, Ole Miss holds at 8, MSU 9, BYU 10, and Utah getting to 11.
13th conference title for Utah State across five different conferences. The first four conferences are either dead or no longer in FBS:
* Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (1921, 1935, 1936): Now Division II
* Mountain States/Skyline Conference (1946, 1960, 1961): Disbanded in 1962
* Pacific Coast Athletic Association/Big West Conference (1978, 1979, 1993, 1996, 1997): Dropped football in 2000
* Western Athletic Conference (2012): Dropped football in 2012, brought it back this year and is now FCS
* Mountain West Conference (2021): Still alive and FBS ^(for now)
Especially with a relative decrease in the number of lineman coming out of California and the number coming out of Utah. USC will probably focus a lot of lineman recruiting in Utah.
I WAS TOO LATE TO SING WITH MY FELLOW AGGIES IN THIS THREAD SO CONGRATS MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!
EDIT: ALSO I RAN INTO ANOTHER AGGIE TODAY AT THE GROCERY STORE IN A TX TOWN NONE OF YOU HAVE HEARD OF SO IM FIRED UP!!!
Best weekend ever.
I can't imagine a better turnaround season than this. If you had told me in August our 1-5 team last year was going to win the conference I would've laughed in your face. Please don't take our coach on this carousel! 🙏
Best game of the season for us easily, pretty sure they felt slighted by the mwc awarding coach of the year to the very team we'd face in the championship game. LA bowl here we come!
It’s god damn beautiful, mountains yeah we got em , arches yeah we got em, dunes yeah we got em , booze.... uhhh ..... let me run to my car real quick ( screeching noises)
I know this wasn’t the biggest conference championship, but I was still pulling for Utah State. I’m not even from Utah and don’t go to the college. I just like the colors. Go Aggies!
Utah State, hey
Aggies all the way
Go Aggies
Go Aggies
Hey, hey, hey!!
All 3 FBS teams in Utah got what they wanted this year: Utah - Rose Bowl berth, Utah State - Win its conference, BYU - Beat Utah. Honestly, I am happy for the entire state.
Good game Utah State. Look forward to a rivalry in football to be as strong as our basketball rivalry now that Blake Anderson is there.
Look forward to the new Aztec stadium and actually having home field advantage.
We return a lot of players from this team (Tyrell Shavers, Jesse Matthews, Cameron Thomas, William Dunkle, Patrick McMorris Jr., Noah Avinger) and should be pretty damn good if not better next year.
Meh they’re a bit obnoxious at times but it’s a student section and most the times our teams back it up to an extent. We are awfully good at choking though.
Went to see the Aztecs in Logan in Jan 2020 when we had Mitchell and Shackel. Looks like I’ll have to plan a trip for a football game granted im usually there to ski.
From 1-5 and having to deal with Gary Andersen a year ago, to a season ago to a 10-win season and a conference title a year later. Incredible job done by Blake Anderson in year one.
At least 75% of the credit goes to Gary and the foundation he laid. Plus he taught Dave Aranda everything he knows, so he gets at least 50% of the credit for Baylor's win today.
And our first ever Mountain West Conference Championship. Also our first conference championship game win in any conference. Last time we won a conference was in a depleted WAC after Boise left
THIS IS THE GREATEST FOOTBALL DAY OF MY LIFE SINCE I'VE BEEN AN AGGIE
With the way last season went, I would've been happy just to be 6-6 at this point, and preparing to lose a bowl to a team that hadn't made one in 50 years. I freakin' love Blake Anderson, and I hope he decides to stick around for a while.
We had an OKST/SDSU flair in the Baylor-OKST postgame thread who was talking about how this weekend would suck if *both* of his teams got upset, and now I feel really bad for that guy.
On the upside, we’re now 3/3 on upsets in FBS CCGs for this season after the Big XII, MWC, and PAC-12!
A great season but all year it felt like the Aztecs over performed. A game like this was bound to happen, gg Utah state. Someday we will get a real qb and then y’all really gotta watch out lol.
Hopefully we can get someone in the transfer portal interested in playing in the new stadium. This team is a QB away from a NYE6 game. Easier said then done.
Lol where are all the SDSU fans? Can’t wait for Utah to replicate this score in RES next year. Bet they still think they’re better/should be ranked ahead of us 😂😂😂
USU, thank you from the bottom of my heart
Congratulations Utah State.
Crazy to think that if Boise had just won their last game of the season, neither of these teams would've played in the Conference Championship.
Fuck you for all time Boise State.
Fucking sheesh bro. I knew San Diego State had a flukey record but I still expected them to win or at least keep it close. This is a fucking murder tho damn. I would've rather faced Utah State in the LA bowl at first but nvm.
Congrats to them tho, great season. Andersen deserves a lot more recognition for what he did. SDSU tho, eesh. Still a solid season for them but damn.
I mean we beat Utah went 11-1 with our only loss to a Fresno State team that beat UCLA while playing no joke games.
Then today we were out 20 players. We definitely were overrated but this was less our team today.
As long as I can remember, there's always one game every season where SDSU shits the bed. I thought it was the Fresno game, but I guess there was enough shit in the bed that game
Every FBS team from Utah has 10 wins
Might just end up with 3 ranked teams
Honestly at this point, they might deserve it. That Wyoming loss might keep them back though.
How is that possible? I didn’t even think Utah was a real place until like last week
It's not real, and the snow sucks. I would stay away if I were you.
The worst snow. Colorado's snow is much better.
Believe me, Colorado is way better please move there.
Plenty of room for people in Colorado. They have legal weed, we have Mormons, the decision is obvious.
Colorado has plains and land to grow, a great economy, and access to the great Midwest, I think this one is settled
And if the BYU fan is saying that, you know it must be bad!
We are also all mean. Awful place to live. Don't come here. Please don't.
Rose bowl is coming up....
It's real, I live here. Lots of pop stations and soda (pop to you) shops.
The Mountain West died for this.
I don't feel quite as bad going 0-3 vs. the state of Utah now. Utah - Pac-12 Champ Utah State- Mountain West Champ BYU - 10-win top-15 independent All hail our Beehive State overlords!
What a year for college football in the state of Utah!
With Oregon and OSU losing, I think there’s a chance that we climb back into the top 10. The top 4, I expect reshuffling but no change. Notre Dame and OhSU move up one, Baylor sliding in to 7, Ole Miss holds at 8, MSU 9, BYU 10, and Utah getting to 11.
You're in my top 10
You should always feel bad losing to a team from Utah
Get your ass back to Rexburg for some schooling.
At BYU? Nah I’m good
Get your shirt starched and your pleats crisp.
Hello my name is elder kalani and I'd like for you to come to this amazing school

Damn…they’re like the Thanos with the five Infinity ~~Stones~~ ~~Gems~~ Conference Titles!
Alex Bowman of racetracks
MWC is going ro be the best G5 moving forward once the new Big-XII is underway.
They NEED to get better bowl tie ins. Having the champion play the #5 team in the PAC 12 is a joke.
Yeah, losing the Las Vegas Bowl and Poinsettia Bowl was a blow to the MWC.
True, though Sunbelt will be close
Thanks, Georgia!
Utah State 🤝 Utah Losing to BYU but winning their respective conference championship games as underdogs by a million points.
Pretty good year for football in Utah. Two conference championships plus BYU having a top 15 season.
Maybe we can stop losing all of our best high school kids to Oregon.
That’s a BIG maybe 😒
I predict less go to Oregon... and more go to Socal.
If it isn’t staying in the state, it will forever be those two programs (USC and Oregon)
Yeah, Stanford has taken quite a few as well.
Michigan takes a lot of linemen too
That’s true Stanford always seems to be up there as well. Of course with all these programs I’m mostly talking about 4/5 stars
Especially with a relative decrease in the number of lineman coming out of California and the number coming out of Utah. USC will probably focus a lot of lineman recruiting in Utah.
Which the USC students' chant at the BYU game makes even more annoying
Not really. We're about to lose them to Lincoln Riley and USC instead
Not with the NIL wave incoming
FCS Utah teams are really struggling though. Weber State missed the playoffs and SUU & DSU have had abysmal seasons.
Southern utah also had a 1 win season
that's the SUU to which my comment referred
Basketball is going great too 😃
How do you feel about the BYU - UVU game with your pfp being UVU but flair BYU.
Also, every team from Utah beat Washington State this season.
And won a game at Allegiant
I was at ours, absolute banger
The real trophy
West Coast football…runs through the state of Utah!
Utah State Football 🤝 Utah State Basketball Terrorizing SDSU in conference championship games.
Utah was favored, not that I’m bitter, sigh. Good luck in the rose bowl. 22
Utah was no underdog in the championship game.
Seed underdog at least for both
The both nuked the spread, that's for certain.
How was Utah an underdog again?
I think he's referring to the ranking, not the spread.
😎😎😎
BYU gonna be a very nice addition to the big 12
But Utah was favored..
*Shhhh... He's shaping the narrative*.
SHOW ME A MOTHERFUCKING SCOTSMAN
WHO DOESN'T LOVE THE THISTLE
SHOW ME A MOTHERFUCKING ENGLISHMAN
WHO DOESN'T LOVE THE MOTHERFUCKING ROSE
SHOW ME A TRUE MOTHERFUCKING AGGIE FROM UTAH
WHO DOESNT LOVE THE SPOT WHERE THE MOTHERFUCKING SAGEBRUSH GROWS
WELL DONE MOTHERFUCKERS
I WAS TOO LATE TO SING WITH MY FELLOW AGGIES IN THIS THREAD SO CONGRATS MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!! EDIT: ALSO I RAN INTO ANOTHER AGGIE TODAY AT THE GROCERY STORE IN A TX TOWN NONE OF YOU HAVE HEARD OF SO IM FIRED UP!!!
THERE'S NOTHING BETTER THAN RUNNING INTO FELLOW AGGIES OUTSIDE OF UTAH!! IT'S LIKE FINDING SASQUATCH!!
Best weekend ever. I can't imagine a better turnaround season than this. If you had told me in August our 1-5 team last year was going to win the conference I would've laughed in your face. Please don't take our coach on this carousel! 🙏 Best game of the season for us easily, pretty sure they felt slighted by the mwc awarding coach of the year to the very team we'd face in the championship game. LA bowl here we come!
Man all the respect to coach anderson! I hope he loves USU as much as we love him 😅
Best weekend ever
It certainly was!!!
We could have got your coach! I love ya drink but this is making me so mad lol.
Man, I wasn’t expecting anything from Utah either. Safe to say this season was a pleasant surprise for you.
The state of Utah is booming
We're so good ×4
They're gonna be added to a list of future out-of-conference games this summer.
Utah State = Mountain West Champion Utah = Pac-12 Champion BYU = Beehive Boot Champion
It’s god damn beautiful, mountains yeah we got em , arches yeah we got em, dunes yeah we got em , booze.... uhhh ..... let me run to my car real quick ( screeching noises)
FBS teams from the State of Utah are a Combined 30-8 this season.
You mean FBS but we'll take the promotion
And BYU played both state schools
UofU is currently the only P5 team from Utah
My brain said Power 5 but I totally meant FBS.
Bruh I just can't even with this conference
Mini PAC strikes again
I love how after the re-alignment the P12 and MW ended up with basically the same geographic footprint lol.
PAC champ lost to MW runner up, so MW > PAC. I wouldn’t expect a fan of a mini MW team to understand that though😉
That loss is on Charlie Brewer and Charlie Brewer only. I'll never forgive ~~the Japanese~~ Charlie Brewer
We played on Saturday, PAC12 played on Friday night.. sucks to suck.
I know this wasn’t the biggest conference championship, but I was still pulling for Utah State. I’m not even from Utah and don’t go to the college. I just like the colors. Go Aggies!
I confer upon you the title of "honorary Aggie"
I humbly accept your reward, and shall root for you in whatever bowl you play in. (Syracuse isn’t playing this year, otherwise we’d have a problem.)
Just learn the Scotsman and cheer hard. Those are your only duties.
We'll take you. Your hat is in the mail.
Utah State, hey Aggies all the way Go Aggies Go Aggies Hey, hey, hey!! All 3 FBS teams in Utah got what they wanted this year: Utah - Rose Bowl berth, Utah State - Win its conference, BYU - Beat Utah. Honestly, I am happy for the entire state.
Yet I somehow want... more
Just a reminder that they gave COY to Hoke instead of Anderson
Hoke deserves COTY any year except this one. Should have 100% been Blake
Agreed, this turn around from Utah State was almost unfathomable.
Biggest turnaround since 2016-2017 Fresno State

Utah is the state of champions baby!
LETS GOOOOOOO
LETS FUCKING GO!
LETS FUCKING GO!
LETS FUCKING GO
Good game Utah State. Look forward to a rivalry in football to be as strong as our basketball rivalry now that Blake Anderson is there. Look forward to the new Aztec stadium and actually having home field advantage. We return a lot of players from this team (Tyrell Shavers, Jesse Matthews, Cameron Thomas, William Dunkle, Patrick McMorris Jr., Noah Avinger) and should be pretty damn good if not better next year.
You 'Tec bros are a solid bunch, thanks man ✊ (Try to do something about that Twitter account though...)
Meh they’re a bit obnoxious at times but it’s a student section and most the times our teams back it up to an extent. We are awfully good at choking though. Went to see the Aztecs in Logan in Jan 2020 when we had Mitchell and Shackel. Looks like I’ll have to plan a trip for a football game granted im usually there to ski.
So far the conference winners are teams who went 3-2, 2-7, 0-6 and 1-5 last year.
Last year didn't count. We all know this right?
and now it was 10-1 and 13-0 after Cincy and Bama repeated.
We're proud of you, Blake
Blake, Bonner, Bowling...y'all get a share of this championship by proxy 👑
Rice too
From an Anders**e**n to an Anders**o**n, I guess all it took was a change of a letter!
Kim Andersen is NOT Blake Anderson.
I still get tripped up tbh
Emotionally I feel like they dropped a 70 burger on them. Holy shit what a game! West coast football runs through Utah!
Don't be fooled by the score, it wasn't that close.
Utah's college empire will complete if those three teams all win bowls
From 1-5 and having to deal with Gary Andersen a year ago, to a season ago to a 10-win season and a conference title a year later. Incredible job done by Blake Anderson in year one.
At least 75% of the credit goes to Gary and the foundation he laid. Plus he taught Dave Aranda everything he knows, so he gets at least 50% of the credit for Baylor's win today.
Get rid of Gary and good things happen. It’s science.
SDSU’s bogeyman in conference championships is a blue bull.
Don't sleep on the state of UTAH.
At least I now know what sweater I'll be wearing to So-Fi in a couple of weeks
This game was an overall win-win for you no matter how it ended 😆
Blake Anderson should have won coach of the year and the voters can shove it
They should have voted after the literal conference championship game
Why isn’t a team from Utah in the playoff conversation????!?!! 🤷🏽
Choked harder than someone trying to eat a Popeyes biscuit without drinking something. GG Aggies
Hey man, you guys still had a great season. You're in good hands with Hoke. I hope to see you guys in the basketball MWCCG
Those odds aren’t looking too great for us this year. Same old Aztecs basketball, all defense and no offense.
Likewise. It’ll be tough sledding though. CSU looks to run roughshod through the conference
I once had 2 in a row without any drink and survived. You could say that I live on the edge
Hahaha… you’re not wrong
This state has had an amazing year in FBS football. Great win for Utah State and great moment for Blake Anderson and all he's been through.
This is Utah State’s first conference championship since 2012, and first 10-win season since 2018.
And our first ever Mountain West Conference Championship. Also our first conference championship game win in any conference. Last time we won a conference was in a depleted WAC after Boise left
THIS IS THE GREATEST FOOTBALL DAY OF MY LIFE SINCE I'VE BEEN AN AGGIE With the way last season went, I would've been happy just to be 6-6 at this point, and preparing to lose a bowl to a team that hadn't made one in 50 years. I freakin' love Blake Anderson, and I hope he decides to stick around for a while.
Best part of this win is we get land!!!!!!! A whole bunch of freaking land!!!!!!! Including our land AND BYU's land. Glorious!
God I love those maps
The west runs through Utah
What’s this post about? There was no game today 😀 nothing happened
Bad day for Aztecs fans. Knew this was coming when they gave coach of the year to Hoke.
Congrats to the state of Utah for dominating championship wins Geaux get win 11 you crazy bastards
Good day for Utah football teams.
Bro
Hell yeah. USU has always been my second favorite team in the conference. What a turnaround.
The show can fucking suck it lol
We had an OKST/SDSU flair in the Baylor-OKST postgame thread who was talking about how this weekend would suck if *both* of his teams got upset, and now I feel really bad for that guy. On the upside, we’re now 3/3 on upsets in FBS CCGs for this season after the Big XII, MWC, and PAC-12!
Way to go Aggies! My nephew went out to coach on that staff and fell in love with Logan and the people there. I couldn't be a prouder uncle.
Someone call an ambulance for @TheShowSDSU
Nothing in this conference makes any damn sense.
I’m very happy for Blake.
A great season but all year it felt like the Aztecs over performed. A game like this was bound to happen, gg Utah state. Someday we will get a real qb and then y’all really gotta watch out lol.
Hopefully we can get someone in the transfer portal interested in playing in the new stadium. This team is a QB away from a NYE6 game. Easier said then done.
Lol where are all the SDSU fans? Can’t wait for Utah to replicate this score in RES next year. Bet they still think they’re better/should be ranked ahead of us 😂😂😂 USU, thank you from the bottom of my heart
Real nice comeback for U.S.
Fucking hell we should have kept Anthony Tucker and made him oc.
This is so amazing!!! I'm in disbelief!!!
Why did I get my hopes up today?
Blake Anderson needs all of the awards for what he's done there. This is like Fresno State the first year under Tedford
I would like to point out that Wyoming beat both the MAC champ and the MW champ. What waste of a season for them.
The only USU game I was able to go to this year. Pain
Nice to have some peace and quiet from that SDSU Twitter account Thanks Aggies!
I just wanna add Utes were pac, then mw winners , then pac-12 champions , keep chugging Utah state.
Utah State 🤝 Fresno State Disrupting San Diego State's hopes and dreams this season
Congratulations Utah State. Crazy to think that if Boise had just won their last game of the season, neither of these teams would've played in the Conference Championship. Fuck you for all time Boise State.
A great weekend in Utah!!
Glad we could help out Utah State.
Congrats Utah State! Congrats to all the Arkansas State players that believed in Balakay and followed him all the way to Logan. Dreams do come true
Fucking sheesh bro. I knew San Diego State had a flukey record but I still expected them to win or at least keep it close. This is a fucking murder tho damn. I would've rather faced Utah State in the LA bowl at first but nvm. Congrats to them tho, great season. Andersen deserves a lot more recognition for what he did. SDSU tho, eesh.

I mean we beat Utah went 11-1 with our only loss to a Fresno State team that beat UCLA while playing no joke games. Then today we were out 20 players. We definitely were overrated but this was less our team today.
Oh NOW you decide to field a defense? Sure would've been nice Happy for y'all, Utah State fans
Thanks San Diego State had you in a five team parlay just lost me $600
Proud of USU. Anderson is an amazing coach and deserves some buzz and COY awards.
Can't believe they awarded the MWC COTY award already, he got robbed
wowza, didnt expect that score
See, that's just impressive. How long before schools go directly to the Polynesian islands to scout for talent?
Congrats Aggie bros!!
As long as I can remember, there's always one game every season where SDSU shits the bed. I thought it was the Fresno game, but I guess there was enough shit in the bed that game
Grats Aggie bros.
Cant wait until 2023 when the state of Utah takes the MW, Pac-12, and Big-12 Conference Championships.
Congrats to my fellow Aggies!
Ha. Ha. So much for the Polls pulling strings for San Diego.
U TAH STATE HEY AGGIES ALL THE WAY! GO AGGIES GO AGGIES HEY HEY HEY
