The 1978 Utah State Aggies football team represented Utah State University as a new member of the Pacific Coast Athletic Association (PCAA) during the 1978 NCAA Division I-A football season . Led by third-year head coach Bruce Snyder, the previously-independent Aggies played their home games on campus at Romney Stadium in Logan, Utah. They opened with five wins and finished with a 7âÂÂ4 record (4âÂÂ1 PCAA, tied for first).
A noteworthy game was against Idaho State (of nearby Pocatello), the first college football season-opener played in Japan.
