Never ever one to get ahead of himself, Matt Wells pulled the reins back earlier this week. On himself.
As the Utah State coach explained the magnitude of Saturday’s regular-season home finale, the one in which the Aggies will wave goodbye to 25 members of the No. 14-ranked team in college football, his mind wandered into what might be.
Wells talked of USU’s shot at going 6-0 at home this year, and what it would mean not only to the outgoing crop of senior Aggies, but to this memorable ongoing season as whole. After all, only three teams in the history of USU football have ever won six regular-season home games in a season.
