Towson @ San Diego State

Current Records: Towson 1-2; San Diego State 3-0

What to Know

The San Diego State Aztecs have the luxury of staying home another week and will welcome the Towson Tigers at 3:30 p.m. ET Sept. 25 at Dignity Health Sports Park. Coming off of a win even when the odds were against them, the Aztecs have to be feeling especially confident now that the spread is in their favor.

It may have taken triple overtime to finish the job, but San Diego State ultimately got the result they were hoping for last week with a 33-31 win over the Utah Utes. The score was all tied up at the break 10-10, but San Diego State was the better team in the second half. They relied on the efforts of QB Lucas Johnson, who passed for one TD and 44 yards on 19 attempts in addition to picking up 87 yards on the ground, and RB Greg Bell, who rushed for two TDs and 119 yards on 33 carries. Johnson's longest run was for 54 yards in the third quarter.

Meanwhile, the oddsmakers predicted a rough game for Towson last week, and boy were they were right. They found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unfortunate 35-7 punch to the gut against the North Dakota State Bison. Towson was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 21 to nothing.

San Diego State's victory lifted them to 3-0 while Towson's defeat dropped them down to 1-2. We'll see if San Diego State can repeat their recent success or if the Tigers bounce back and reverse their fortune.
