 Top 10 reasons why Utah State will NOT upset the University Of Oregon this weekend.2. The Aggies have only won just one game against a ranked opponent in their last 45 tries. That was back in 1991, when they upset 25th-ranked Fresno State 20-19. 3. Oregon has lost just one non-conference game at Autzen Stadium in coach Mike Bellotti's past 13 seasons. 4. Utah State is 3-19 on the road under Brent Guy, in four Seasons. 5. Utah State hasn't defeated a Pac-10 school since 1965, when it beat Arizona State 13-0 6. Utah State is dealing with Quarterback issues of their own, Sean Setzer completed 10 of 17 passes for 123 yards, and threw an interception, in Utah State's loss to UNLV. Sophomore Diondre Borel completed eight of 16 passes for 80 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 70 yards. Those numbers are close to what the ducks allowed against Washington and Jake Locker. (Look for the Ducks Defense to hold the Aggies to Less than 225 Total Yards of offense, and less than 13 first downs.) 7. Jeremiah Johnson rushed for a career-high 124 yards against Washington while recording his 5th career multi touchdown game. Look for Johnson to add onto both of those categories. (175 yards Rushing (tying him with Maurice Morris at 22 on the list for most rushing yards in a game, Morris set that mark in 2001, against who else, Utah State). 8. Utah State's top two rushers combined for only 5 TD's last season. 9. Oregon Has defeated Utah State in all three of their previous meetings in 2001, 1990, and 1976, with an average score of 36-12. 10. Utah State has only won 19 games since 2002.
