But theAggies are going to have to rediscoverthe path to the endzone.

The Aggies have more than their own mental mistakes to contend with. Boise presents myriad problems with an aggressive defense that has regis tered19 takeaways and an offense that generates 372 yardsper game. “[Boise] is a team playing with a great deal of confidence like a team that has won a bunchof games, One of the wins was ot teamthe Broncos defeated, 26-20, three weeks ago. The Utes downed U State in the third game of the ason 38:18. A small consolation for the Ag gies was their Ute loss was onthe that Browncan find someholes in a Boise defense that ranks 40th in the nation. Crosbie has led the Aggiesto road andthe Broncos victory was at home. Boise has yet to 1 success on the road this year with defeats at UCLA, Hawaii and North Texas State. Of course, the Aggies have scored 4 Even USU Coach Dave Arslanianis to a sputtering an overworked defense and nother road game shoddy special teams play. “It seems the harder we try, the worseit gets,” second-year who is now 5-13 overall. One thing the Aggies coach aren't having “top rusher in the conference in Demario Brown,” Brown, USU’s spiritual and emo: tional leader, has been held in check thelast two weeks at K-State and Idaho, but that could bode bad news for Boise, Brownhas gonescoreless in two games, but still leads the BWC in scor ing with points, Brown has averaged 126 yards per game against the Bron cos in his career ‘The Aggies will be hoping sopho. more quarterback Jeff Crosbie shakes his two-week passing swoon and be bristling following two games in which the Ags managed just a field goal. Koetter points out USU has the 350 yards per game, but he has had trouble zeroing in on his favorite re ceiver Aaron Jones the last two weeks. Arslanian is still looking for the breakthrough game. USU has four conference games left and a four-game winning streak could give thema shot at the Big West title and a winning record. “We need that program launching win to ge. us over the hump,” says Arslanian If the win doesn’t come today, the are doomedto a secondstraight losing season. uble with is piling up penalties Jhas 68 penalties for 642 yards in Their offensive output tion al th penalties. by bnoe Boise has been penalt Eastern Washington sand: mit ds wiched around a 10-point stumble ot North Texas State Thew defense ranks 34th in a SNOWPLOWS Ve +Tbe the country, allowing only 21.2 points per game...
