I made it everyone. I didn't cry, though I did want to at the end of the game. I didn't want to leave the spectrum because I love that place to much!
The Aggies played down right awesome, and it was great for me to see them play so well against Idaho. The last time it wasn't so great of a game. The team played very well last night and I only hope that they keep themselves focused, because we have 2 more regular season games left and the Tournament still to go. I somehow have the feeling that all will be alright, these guys now what it takes to win, I think they will be fine. I know I will cheer for them no matter what.
Because the Spectrum was so amazing last night and I want you to be apart of last night check out these three videos:

Thank You Seniors
Tonight marks an end to an Aggie Era. This group of seniors have won more games than any Aggie, EVER! It is almost scary to think that it will be the last night that Tai, Tyler, Pooh, Matt, Nate, and Brian will take the court of the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum. I have been preparing this week for tonight, and I only hope I don't embarrass my self by crying in the Spectrum, at least until I go home.
These guys are simply amazing. There isn't one super-star, this is a team. I think it is amazing what they have done in four years.
Winning 4-straight WAC regular season championships is quite a feat. I don't know how you do it, but I do know this, the Aggies play one game at a time and never overlook a team. These seniors have lost 1 game in the spectrum in their career. I hope they are able to keep it that way.
I don't think I am as worried about what next years team will do, but I think I am going to miss watching these Aggies play basketball. Not run around and take wild shots and not play defense.
So to the guys who started my love for Aggie Basketball, who won 4 WAC titles, who got USU ranked again, who dominated the Spectrum, who didn't like loosing:
THANK YOU!

USU at St. Mary's
The Aggies traveled to Moraga California for the annual ESNPU Bracketbuster. The Aggies heading into the game were an 3 point under dog.
Had the game ended after just one half, it would have been an ugly loss by the Ags.
St. Mary's went on a 20-2 run to end the first half and the Aggies found themselves down by 9. It was a little sketchy for awhile, but the Aggies kicked it into high gear and found a way to win.
It was pretty sweet if you ask me. The Aggies rallied and were able to play good solid basketball. Brockeith and Tai were key into getting the Aggies points. Each scoring 22 points.
The play that has everybody talking is Brady's epic dunk. Check it out here. It made it onto Sports Centers Top 10.
The Aggies finally got the Top 25 win they were seeking, which boosts there resume for the NCAA tourney.
The Aggies send the Seniors off with one final home game on Saturday. This will be the last home game for the Aggies who have the more wins that any other Aggie Basketball player. Special Group if you ask me.
SCORE:75-65
RECORD: 25-3
UP NEXT: Senior Night, Saturday vs Idaho

USU vs Montana Western
The Aggies stepped out of conference to play a non-division 1 school. So going into the game I knew it was going to be a little boring...
That was until we were supposed to start the second half. When during 2nd half warm-ups Tai Wesley Breaks the Back Board.
Yes he broke the backboard.
So the game was delayed about 40 minutes while crews were frantically trying to put a new one up. Well...The replacement broke too...
So the Aggies finished the game on a portable hoop. It was quite entertaining.
The Aggies easily one this one. Even breaking the century mark for the first time since 2005
SCORE:100-66
RECORD: 24-3

USU at Idaho
I think the reason I haven't blogged about this game is because it was so Ugly I don't know how to put it into words...
So, that being said the Aggies got a reality check and they hopefully will never play like that again.
SCORE: 64-56 Idaho
RECORD: 22-3
UP NEXT: Fresno State

USU vs Boise State
I think the Aggies played one of the most complete games all year. They had something in them that they went crazy right from the get go. It was pretty sweet.
My favorite part of the game was the first 1o Aggie points were from our Bigs down underneath. Tai and Nate had 6 and 4 points to start of the shooting fest.
I was very pleased that we were able to play our bench for some of the game. Giving our starters rest at this crucial period of time is vital for us down the road.
The Aggies shot exceptionally well last night, 64% or something like that. They only missed 7 shots in the first half!
This was another fun game to watch and I can't believe that there are only3 more home games. I think the only thing that will keep me from crying that night is that I will get to see them play in Las Vegas.
It has been an amazing 4 years for those seniors. Wow, I love Aggie Basketball.
SCORE:77-49
RECORD: 22-2 (11-0 WAC) 4.5 game lead over NMSU who is in 2nd.
UP NEXT: @ Idaho on Wednesday @9:00 MST on ESPN2

USU vs Nevada-Reno
HOLY COW! What an epic game. The Aggie fans were ready for this game. ESPN2 game brought the best in USU students. First was the blue gloves to the entire student section:
Also doing the Scotsman.
You might have already heard this one but hear is Wild Bill's outfit for the game:
But you must also remember the game....We played GREAT. If you only watch the second half. We kinda got sloppy and slow towards the end of the first half. But something happened in the Locker Room and the boys came out ready to win. The atmosphere was Amazing and I loved every minute of it. The single most play that got the crowd the loudest probably was because of this play by Brady Jardine, which allowed for the Aggies to get HOT!
The Aggies had a great game, the students were great, I actually got to go to a week day game which was great!
GO AGGIES
SCORE: 67-45
RECORD: 21-2 (10-0 WAC)
UP NEXT: Home to Boise St. on Saturday
