Logan Bonner threw five touchdown passes and Utah State rolled to a 35-10 win at New Mexico on Friday at University Stadium, earning a berth in the Mountain West Conference title game.
The Aggies (9-3, 6-2) needed a win and San Diego State’s 27-16 win over Boise State to earn the Mountain Division crown and a date with the Aztecs on Dec. 4. Utah State’s only other trip to the MWC title game was in 2013.
Bryson Carroll, who began the season as a student manager, started at quarterback for UNM and threw a touchdown pass for the Lobos (3-9, 1-7) but two New Mexico quarterbacks combined to go 12 of 19 for just 85 yards.
