What to Know

The San Diego State Aztecs won both of their matches against the Fresno State Bulldogs last season (67-53 and 75-57) and are aiming for the same result this past Saturday. San Diego State and Fresno State will face off in a Mountain West battle at 10 p.m. ET at Save Mart Center. The Aztecs will be strutting in after a win while Fresno State will be stumbling in from a defeat.

San Diego State didn't have too much trouble with the Utah State Aggies at home last week as they won 75-56. It was another big night for San Diego State's guard Matt Bradley, who had 22 points and five assists.

Meanwhile, it was close but no cigar for the Bulldogs as they fell 60-57 to the UNLV Rebels this past Wednesday. Forward Orlando Robinson just could not get things rolling his way, playing for 29 minutes but putting up just seven points on 3-for-14 shooting.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Aztecs are expected to win a tight contest. The smart bettors have been the ones to keep their money on San Diego State's opponents whenever they hit the road.

San Diego State's victory brought them up to 16-6 while Fresno State's loss pulled them down to 16-9. A pair of defensive stats to keep an eye on: San Diego State enters the matchup with only 57.7 points allowed per game on average, good for third best in college basketball. The Bulldogs are not quite as good, but they are no chumps, either: they rank fourth in college basketball when it comes to points allowed per game, with only 58 on average.
