Bryson Barnes

QuarterbackQB
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Barnes is poised to take over the starting job after throwing for 856 yards with 12 touchdowns and six interceptions while backing up Spencer Petras in 2024. It won't be an easy task for the senior under new head coach Bronco Mendenhall, as none of the Aggies' top-five receivers from last season will return in 2025. Barnes, a former Utah transfer, will likely be asked to make a lot happen with his legs - he ran for 530 yards and five touchdowns on 68 attempts last year. We've seen run-first quarterbacks have success under Mendenhall - under the veteran coach, Devon Dampier rushed for 1,166 yards and 19 touchdowns with New Mexico last season. Read Past Outlooks
Sharp in victory
October 19, 2025
Barnes was 22-for-31 passing for 326 yards and a touchdown during Friday's 30-25 victory over San Jose State. He also had 16 rushes for 54 yards with a touchdown.
ANALYSIS
It was an encouraging performance from Barnes, who'd been limited by injuries in his previous two contests. The senior topped 300 yards passing for the first time this season while adding his seventh rushing score. Through seven starts, Barnes has completed 65.1 percent of his passes for 1,644 yards, 13 touchdowns and just two interceptions while rushing for another 363 yards. Utah State will travel to take on New Mexico next week.
