Lars Gunderson’s Utah State role was a low-volume, high-effort one
In his Utah State career, Lars Gunderson was more of a depth-piece contributor than a stat-sheet headliner: he finished with 2 career receptions for 16 yards, and in the 2013 season he logged 1 catch for 7 yards across 8 games. Utah State’s own media guide singled out his improved physicality and tackling, a nice clue that his value extended beyond offense. He looks like the kind of player coaches trust for effort, toughness, and assignment football—not flashy production.
