Through most of the first half of Utah State’s home finale against San Diego State on Saturday, the Aggies didn’t play particularly well. On offense especially. It was supposed to be something of a shootout given the season-long struggles on defense for both the Aggies and Aztecs,

If a football team scores the first 13 points of a game and knocks the opposing team's quarterback out in the 1st half, it's perfectly acceptable to assume that team ended up winning the game. It's certainly reasonable to think maybe they lost but it was close.
