Isaiah Bruce brought real interior-pop to Utah State in 2024
In the 2024 season, Utah State defensive tackle Isaiah Bruce played in 11 games, started the final six, and finished with 20 tackles, 1.0 sack, and 1.5 tackles for loss, showing he can hold up as a productive interior piece.[2][10] He was also named Academic All-Mountain West in 2024, and local coverage noted Utah State struggled up front while Bruce was the one Aggie defensive lineman cited as standing out in a rough year for the unit.[2][15] At 6-foot-1 and about 265 pounds, he looks like a high-effort, sturdy fit for a team needing a tough, rotational DT who can steady the middle rather than flash for headlines.[2][6]
