The Utah State Aggies are taking on the Oregon State Beaves in the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl 2021. Fresh off a conference championship, Utah State is looking to win just it’s fifth bowl game since 1994.

The Aggies are preparing to face Oregon State for the first time since the teams met in 1998 in Logan, Utah.

Let’s take a look at three reasons why Utah State will get the win over their Pac-12 foes.

In a deep MWC, Utah State prevailed as the 2021 conference champions

The Utah State Aggies came out on top in an absolutely stacked Mountain West Conference this season using a transfer quarterback and a coach who was in his first season with the team.

The Aggies, who defeated San Diego State, Washington State and Air Force this season outlasted conference foes like Boise State and Fresno State to be the last team standing in the conference.

The team defeated No. 19 SDSU in the championship game by a whopping 46-13. These guys are the real deal and have a ton of momentum heading into this bowl game.
