Hello Sweep Dance my old friend... It seems the Aggies win again, 61-60

Pane won this final battle between these two

At the start of this season, there were three games which I thought Utah State would absolutely not win. Based on both my knowledge of USU's team as well as the opposing teams, I thought at Wichita State, at Mississippi State and at Hawaii were the three games that would just be too tough. Each of the teams had the edge in experience, talent and athleticism that would have just been too much for this young USU team.

What happened was a breakout performance against Wichita State, a near earth-shattering upset at Miss. State and a win on the islands. All three went above and beyond what I thought the team had in them.

Saturday's game started off close before the Aggies built a small lead that lasted them for the bulk of the first half before Hawaii came back to grab a two-point lead at the half.

In the second half, Hawaii was like a bigger, faster older brother who dangled a victory in front of lil' bro Utah State's face saying, "Bet you can't catch me," and kept gaining ground, then letting up just to tease the Aggies a bit before gaining separation again. This went on for more than 18 minutes, with Utah State never getting within as close as two points to the Warriors.
