San Diego State had a three-game winning streak going before it was snapped in the last game of the season by Air Force. SDSU is all about the run. They have four rushers that receive carries. Running backs Jordan Byrd, Jaylon Armstead and Kenan Christon will all see action in this game as they try and bludgeon the defense. The defense is giving up just 20.2 points a game.

Play on the UNDER.
