01/08/23 - Colby Bowman, rSr/2025, Utah State + More +

Utah State's wide receiver corps has a significant new addition on the way. On Saturday morning, former Stanford wide receiver Colby Bowman - once a 4-star prospect out of St. John Bosco High School in Bellflower, California - announced on social media that he has committed to join the Aggies. Listed at 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, Bowman played three seasons at Stanford - he redshirted his freshman year in 2019 - and recorded seven receptions for 43 yards in 2022.

Bowman has two years of eligibility remaining, during which the Aggies and wide receivers coach Kyle Cefalo will hope to develop him to his full potential. Coming out of St. John Bosco, Bowman was projected to be a "upper-tier Power 5 starter and late-round NFL draft pick," per 247 Sports' national recruiting analyst Greg Biggins. - Deseret News

Backup quarterback Bryson Barnes threw for 175 yards and a touchdown and No. 14 Utah beat Washington State 21-17 on Thursday night to stay in the hunt for the Pac-12 championship game. Barnes, who started in place of injured Cam Rising, completed 17 of 27 passes for Utah (6-2, 4-1), which was off last week after edging Southern California in a 43-42 shootout Oct. 15. Cameron Ward completed 27 of 31 passes for 222 yards for Washington State (4-4, 1-4), which has lost four of its past five games and was also off a week ago. The Cougars were without rushing leader Nakia Watson and top receiver Renard Bell because of injuries. After a scoreless first quarter, Washington State scored on a 29-yard touchdown pass from Ward to De'Zhaun Stribling early in the second quarter. Ward completed his first 12 passes.

Utah replied with a 65-yard drive that ended when Ja'Quinden Jackson plowed over from the 6.
