Football
Aggie football has an overall record of 504–509–31 (.498)
After many years of futility, the Aggies are currently experiencing a renaissance under head coach Gary Andersen, who replaced Brent Guy following the 2008 season. The 2011 campaign was the team's first winning season in many years, resulting in a postseason bowl berth. 2012 has brought the school's first-ever 10-win season and WAC championship (its first outright conference championship since 1936), and national Top 25 rankings in all three major polls.
The Aggies have played in seven bowl games in their history, winning two. The team's first victory came in the 1993 Las Vegas Bowl against Ball State. The team has made two consecutive bowl appearances, both in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, in 2011 and 2012. The team lost to Ohio in the 2011 edition and defeated Toledo 41–15 in the 2012 edition.
USU football is played at Romney Stadium, which seats 25,513.

Famous quotes containing the word football:
“In this dream that dogs me I am part
Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“You can’t be a Real Country unless you have A BEER and an airline—it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a BEER.”
—Frank Zappa (1940–1993)
