What to Know
The San Diego State Aztecs will be returning home after a two-game road trip. San Diego State and the Fresno State Bulldogs will face off in a Mountain West battle at 10:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Dignity Health Sports Park. The Aztecs are out to keep their four-game home win streak alive.
Even if it wasn’t a dominant performance, San Diego State beat the Air Force Falcons 20-14 last week. No one had a standout game offensively for San Diego State, but they got scores from RB Kaegun Williams and RB Chance Bell.
Meanwhile, Fresno State came out on top in a nail-biter against the Nevada Wolf Pack last week, sneaking past 34-32. Fresno State’s RB Jordan Mims was one of the most active players for the squad, rushing for one TD and 134 yards on 23 carries in addition to snatching one receiving TD.
Special teams collected ten points for Fresno State. K Cesar Silva booted in two field goals, the longest a 46-yarder in the fourth quarter, which ultimately accounted for the difference in the game.
This next matchup is expected to be close, with the Aztecs going off at just a 1-point favorite. They have been good against the spread at home while the Bulldogs have been good against the spread on the road, so something will have to give.
San Diego State is now a perfect 7-0 while Fresno State sits at 6-2. Two offensive stats to keep an eye on: San Diego State is stumbling into the contest with the 219th fewest passing yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 135.7 on average. Fresno State has experienced some struggles of their own as they are 156th worst in the nation in rushing yards per game, with only 129.1 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
