The 1999 Utah State Aggies football team represented Utah State University in the 1999 NCAA Division I-A football season as a member of the Big West Conference. The Aggies were once again led by head coach Dave Arslanian, who was in his second year with the program. The Aggies played their home games at Romney Stadium in Logan, Utah. Utah State finished with a 4-7 record, a one game improvement over 1998, but would dismiss Coach Arslanian at the end of the season.
Previous season[edit]
After a conference championship and bowl game in 1997, Utah State finished the 1998 season with a disappointing record of 3-8. The team had lost several close games early in the season, and would need two wins in the last three weeks of the season to avoid its worst finish since 1984.
