Utah State, which is picked to finish second in the WAC's pre-season polls, returns three starters and six letter winners from last year's 24-11 team that won a share of the Western Athletic Conference regular season championship with a 12-4 league mark and advanced to its ninth-straight post-season as it played at Illinois State in the first round of the MasterCard National Invitation Tournament.
