A sad Utah State cheerleader is going viral. The Aggies supporter was spotted crying during the team’s recent loss in the NCAA Tournament.
A clip of the cheerleader is now making its rounds on social media, causing many online to react.
Utah State dropped its opening game in the Big Dance, falling by 11 points to SEC squad Missouri. The Tigers were able to use a late game push to pull away in the second half of action.
After exiting halftime with a four-point deficit, the Aggies were able to even the game at 49-49 midway through the second half. Unfortunately, the Tigers would outscore Utah State 27-16 the rest of the way.
When the Aggies’ fate finally began to sink in, fans were obviously disappointed. Cameras panned to the Utah State cheerleaders, catching a sad member of the team sulking over the loss.
