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
Productive in opener
Barnes was 19-for-28 passing for 233 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 28-16 win over UTEP. He also had 15 rushes for 29 yards with a touchdown.
ANALYSIS
It was an encouraging start to the season for the redshirt senior, who led the Aggies with both his arm and legs. Barnes took over the starting job at Utah State this season after appearing in eight contests as a backup last year, where he completed 61.1 percent of his throws for 856 yards, 12 touchdowns and six interceptions while rushing for 530 yards and five scores on 68 attempts.
