Aztecs home winning streak snapped with loss to Boise St. on Senior Night
San Diego State had a 20-game home winning streak. It was senior night. They hadn’t suffered back-to-back losses since November of 2022. All signs pointed to a win in the regular season finale against Boise State at Viejas Arena. Shooting 6-for-25 from 3-point range against a good team washes away those signs pretty fast. The Aztecs’ latest dismal shooting night…

Aztecs bounce back from loss with blowout win at Fresno State
After coming up just short on the road against Utah State, the Aztecs needed to make sure they didn’t let the frustration linger into their game against Fresno State. A loss to the Aggies is perfectly acceptable. A loss to the Bulldogs would be a borderline disaster. Credit to SDSU, they opened with one of their best halves of...

Aztecs knock off #17 Utah State at Viejas Arena
One thing San Diego State head coach Brian Dutcher is adamant about is not letting one loss turn into two losses. Letting a losing streak get going can torpedo a team’s NCAA Tournament chances in a hurry. The Aztecs have become brilliant at bouncing back, especially in their own building. They dropped their last outing on the road at...

Mountain West gauntlet continues: Aztecs basketball falls on road again
Playing in the Mountain West is not an easy thing to do. The conference already features multiple schools located at high altitude and some of the most difficult environments in the country.

Aztecs winning streak (and possibly stay in Top 25) ends in The Pit
Some teams are really good when they’re the favorites. Others are tough when they’re being overlooked and have that proverbial chip on their shoulder. It’s one of those odd sports things that’s hard to explain. For whatever reason, the 2023-24 San Diego State men’s basketball team seems to be the latter. The 19th-ranked Aztecs suffered their third, and by...

San Diego State’s men’s basketball team has only lost twice all year, both on the road to teams that are a combined 25-2, and has a road win over national powerhouse Gonzaga. And yet they’re still not in the Top-25. That should change this week. The Aztecs beat UNLV 72-61 on Saturday at Viejas Arena, their 6th straight win...

Aztecs suffer 1st loss of the season at BYU
