SALT LAKE CITY — Utah State used a 24-point second quarter to cruise to victory in a 38-25 win over New Mexico on Saturday at Dreamstyle Stadium in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The Aggies (7-5, 6-2 Mountain West) wrapped up the regular season with their third win in four games. The Lobos (2-10, 0-8 MW), meanwhile, lost in the final game for Bob Davie after the school announced Monday it’s parting ways with the head coach after eight seasons.

Here are three takeaways that defined this game.

Slow start before offense breaks out

Halfway through the first quarter, the Aggies had punted on their first three possessions and had netted 16 total yards on 11 plays. At that point, quarterback Jordan Love had completed 2 of 8 passes for 2 yards.

USU finally got on track with an eight-play, 87-yard touchdown drive that included a 42-yard pass to Caleb Repp, a 5-yard TD pass to Repp and four carries for 26 yards from Gerold Bright.

That was the first of three straight scoring drives for the Aggies to give them the lead for good and jumpstart the offense.

Turnovers spark 24-point second quarter

Utah State forced three turnovers late in the second quarter and the Aggies ahead 17-6. The first — a DJ Williams interception — stopped a promising New Mexico drive that reached Aggie territory.

The next two turnovers — both New Mexico fumbles deep in their own territory — led to two USU touchdowns in the final 1:10 of the first half. Bright scored from a yard out for the first touchdown, then Derek Wright caught a 16-yard pass from Love with 23 seconds until the half to make it 31-6 at halftime.

Top performances

Several Aggie players had standout games. Bright rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown while moving past 2,000 career rushing yards.

After a slow start, Love completed 18 of 35 passes for 172 yards and three touchdowns, with one interception. Siaosi Mariner was his favorite target, with 55 yards on three receptions and one touchdown.

Defensively, Williams had two interceptions for USU — both in Aggie territory, with the second ending New Mexico’s final drive — and Tipa Galeai had five tackles and two sacks.
