Utah State Edges Wyoming in Last-Minute Win

In a thrilling contest, Utah State defeated Wyoming 27-25 with a last-second 40-yard field goal by Tanner Cragun, snapping their six-game losing streak. The Aggies initially led 17-10 at halftime but allowed the Cowboys to stage a comeback, highlighted by a 54-yard touchdown run from Tyler King that gave Wyoming a 22-17 advantage. Wyoming's offense generated a season-high 470 yards, with running back Sam Scott leading the charge with 115 rushing yards and a touchdown. Despite a strong defensive effort in the third quarter, Wyoming's inability to secure key stops late in the game cost them the victory.

This win marks Utah State's first victory in the rivalry game known as Bridger's Battle since 2019.
