San Diego State Aztecs to Host Weber State Wildcats at Credit Union Stadium in Football Showdown

As the San Diego State Aztecs prepare to host the Weber State Wildcats at the San Diego County Credit Union Stadium, fans are eager for a glimpse of what this season might hold. The Aztecs, coming off a previous season with a solid 82 percent red zone efficiency and converting 35 percent of third downs, look to capitalize on their offensive strategies.

The team's defensive prowess was evident as they racked up 24 sacks and secured 10 interceptions last season. With an average of nearly seven yards per interception return, the defense proved it could not only stop drives but also create scoring opportunities.

On special teams, field goal kicking was reliable with a success rate of approximately 77 percent. Punting also stood out with an average net yardage close to 40 yards, helping in field position battles which can be crucial in tight games.

Rushing will undoubtedly be a key facet for the Aztecs as they averaged over four yards per carry last year. This ground game potency is complemented by their receiving corps that averaged almost fifteen yards per catch – indicating big-play capability that could stretch the Wildcats' defense.

However, ball security has been an area needing improvement; with seventeen fumbles last season and eleven lost, maintaining possession will be critical against Weber State's opportunistic defense.

The upcoming game promises to showcase both teams' offseason adjustments and set the tone for their respective campaigns. Fans should expect strategic play-calling aimed at exploiting last year's strengths while shoring up any weaknesses revealed during previous outings.
