1970 Utah State Aggies football team

American college football season

The 1970 Utah State Aggies football team represented Utah State University in the 1970 NCAA University Division football season as independent. Led by fourth-year head coach Chuck Mills, the team played their home games at Romney Stadium in Logan, Utah.
