LOGAN, Utah -- Utah State lost in a blowout to Colorado State 29-0.

USU managed only 8 first downs, and 137 yards total offense, as CSU swarmed on the rushing attack and didn't allow enough time for the receivers to get open before hitting th QB on passing plays.

Raymond Carter rushed for a 35 yard touchdown in the first quarter which was a sign of how the game would be played for all 60 minutes. Carter battled the snowy surface for 112 yards while Carlos Washington added another 67 yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Klay Kubiak was 8 for 19 for 156 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions.

"The ball was frozen today, I couldn't get a great grip on it, so we had to run more then usual." Kubiak commented on the gameplan for todays game.

Aggies QB TJ Canales had to try and throw the ball given his team was behind for most of the game. He ended up with 85 yards on 10 of 22 passing. "I'm disappointed that we couldn't clinch a bowl birth. To end the season this way is really disappointing." Canales commented after the game.

USU starting HB Robert Turbin rushed for 32 yards in the first quarter before injuring himself and coming out in streetclothes in the second half. "I really wanted to go back in there. The coaches told me that if it wasn't in these snowy conditions I would have been able to enter again, but my ankle was hurt to much to try and gain traction in the snow."Turbin said.

"We have a lot of seniors on this team, and for them to go out like this is really disappointing. However, for myself and the underclassmen it serves as great motivation for next year." Utah State coach commented after the game.

CSU coach Gill was estatic that his team will finish above .500 this season,"To be honest earlier this year, I was afraid that we wouldn't finish with a winning record, now that we got our 7th win, we are assured of that. And Thomas will be back for our bowl game too. I've been really surprised by how well Klay played filling in for the injured QB, but with Thomas we know that we won't have some of those rookie mistakes."
