The Aztecs delivered their most impressive performance of the season, decisively defeating Washington State in a game that showcased their offensive prowess and marked a significant turnaround in their campaign.
From the very first possession, the Aztecs made their intentions clear. They marched down the field with purpose and efficiency, capping off the opening drive with a touchdown that set the tone for the rest of the game. This early score energized the team and gave them a lead they would not relinquish.
A major factor in the Aztecs' success was the return of starting Running Back Marquez Cooper. After serving a suspension imposed by Coach hugme49 for unspecified reasons, Cooper came back with a vengeance. His performance was nothing short of stellar—rushing for over 100 yards on 20 carries. Cooper’s dynamic presence on the field provided a much-needed boost to the Aztecs' offense, which had been struggling in his absence.
Coach hugme49 addressed Cooper’s return, stating, "Marquez suffered an off-the-field setback during camp that not only set him back from the team but also impacted the team as a whole. Since his suspension, he has done everything that is required of him, and we welcome him back with open arms." The coach’s comments underscore the significance of Cooper’s return and the positive impact it is expected to have on the team’s performance as they head into the remainder of their Mountain West schedule.
With Cooper back in form and the team gaining momentum, the Aztecs are looking poised to finish strong as they continue their Mountain West Conference games. The win against Washington State could be a turning point for the Aztecs, setting them up for a successful end to the season.
