SDSU Game Notes vs. TCU in PDF Format
Having rallied from fourth-quarter deficits to win games in consecutive weeks for the first time since 1987 and owning its best eight-game record since 1998, San Diego State plays its second of three consecutive home games against No. 6/4 (Associated Press/USA Today Coaches' Poll) TCU. Saturday's game time is set for 1 p.m. PT (kickoff is at 1:02 p.m. PT), with the Aztecs making their first appearance on Versus since Sept. 29, 2007. The contest will be broadcast in high definition, where available. The game can also be heard in Southern California on AM 600 KOGO. Last week, the Aztecs ended a 23-game stretch without claiming consecutive wins by defeating New Mexico, 23-20, at Qualcomm Stadium. New Mexico enjoyed a slight edge in total offense (386 to 303), but SDSU committed just one turnover (fourth straight game with 1 TO or less) and Ray Guy Award candidate sophomore punter Brian Stahovich flipped the field on a number of occasions. Stahovich helped SDSU to a net average of 42.4 yards, with six punts pinning the Lobos inside their 20, including three times inside the 10. Stahovich earned MWC special teams player of the week honors for his efforts. TCU owns the nation's fourth-longest win streak at 10 games. The Horned Frogs extended that streak with a 41-0 home win over UNLV last Saturday. TCU has outscored its last three opponents by a 123-13 margin.
