Utah State defeats Louisiana Tech 23-21

LOGAN, UTAH — Diondre Borel passed for 188 yards and a touchdown and Chris Ulinski kicked three field goals to lead Utah State past Louisiana Tech 23-21 Saturday afternoon.

The Aggie defense held Louisiana Tech to 108 yards and seven points in the first three quarters of the game, but then yielded 165 yards and two TDs in the final 15 minutes.

Louisiana Tech (3-4, 2-2) had held a four-game win streak over the Aggies (2-5, 1-2). The Bulldogs scored on a 20-yard pass from Ross Jenkins to Dennis Morris with 6:15 to play. The score was then 23-21, but the two-point conversion failed. Then with less than two minutes to go, a fourth-down pass to Adrian Linwood from Jenkins sailed high, allowing Utah State to run out the clock.
