Utah State’s rebuilt roster faces questions after opener

The opener exposed broader roster and execution concerns despite Utah State holding Idaho State to 241 yards. The rebuilt defense, including senior safety and captain Brevin Hamblin and a front featuring Morris, transfer Tuitama and added pass-rush depth, now faces Washington; Brosterhous’ role, the unsettled offensive line, Jacobs’ workload and possible Maile and Randle availability remain important matchup variables.
