Rams Narrowly Edged Out in Overtime at Viejas Arena

The Colorado State Rams faced a tough battle against the San Diego State Aztecs, culminating in an intense overtime session. The Rams, with a record of 0-0 before the game, scored 71 against the Aztecs' 74. The game saw both teams locked in a close contest with numerous lead changes and ties throughout.

The Colorado State Rams started strong with 15 points in the first quarter but fell slightly behind as the Aztecs put up 20. In a second-quarter push, the Rams added another 14 points to their tally while holding their opponents to 15. After halftime, they surged ahead with an impressive third quarter scoring 22 points but were outdone by a mere seven from the Aztecs. However, it was during the final quarter that momentum shifted as they could only muster nine points compared to their opponent's robust finish of 18.

Overtime was where every possession counted and despite scoring an admirable eleven points, it wasn't enough against San Diego State's fourteen. The statistics reflect how closely matched these two teams were; however, some key differences may have tipped the scales. The Rams shot at forty-nine percent from two-point range on forty-seven attempts and twenty-nine percent for three-pointers on twenty-one attempts.

Defensively speaking, Colorado State managed three blocks and five steals while committing sixteen personal fouls over the course of playtime which spanned across four quarters plus one overtime period without any ejections or flagrant fouls recorded for either side.

Offensively, they had six fast break points and thirteen off turnovers thanks to their nine steals which contributed significantly towards their total scoreline despite turning over possession themselves on nine occasions too – showing room for improvement there perhaps.

Their assist-to-turnover ratio stood at one point fifty-six indicating more successful passes than mistakes made when handling ball control duties; this is something positive that can be taken away from this encounter moving forward into future games surely?
