The\u00a0San Diego State Aztecs\u00a0<\/a>head to the Midwest for their final non-conference game, facing the Toledo Rockets at the Glass Bowl in a matinee showdown that kicks off at noon local\/9 a.m. PT.<\/p>\n

Coming off a disappointing home loss to James Madison, the Aztecs (1-2) are 2.5-point underdogs against a Toledo team that staged a wild comeback for an overtime victory against Temple to jump to 2-1.<\/p>\n

The game will be carried by CBS Sports Network and San Diego Sports 760 radio.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Aztecs are +122 on the moneyline while the Rockets are -146. The over-under is 52.5 points.<\/p>\n

SDSU running out of time before Pac-12 play<\/p>\n

The Aztecs are running out of time to find their identity before their historic Pac-12 opener at home against Texas State on Oct. 3. They\u2019ve started slowly in their last two games, a 28-10 loss against UCLA at the Rose Bowl and then a 26-13 home loss to James Madison.<\/p>\n

The Aztecs’ offense was a no-show in the first halves of both games. The defense at least played UCLA to a scoreless halftime tie, but then let JMU zoom to a 19-0 halftime lead. Of course, it didn\u2019t help that JMU turned two interceptions by Jaylen Denegal into nine points.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Rockets, meanwhile, showed off an explosive offense as they rallied from\u00a0a 42-28 deficit with less than four minutes to play to force overtime and then win 49-48.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are explosive as hell,\u201d said SDSU coach Sean Lewis, who used metaphors from a handful of sports to describe the Rockets. \u201cThey got guys that are home run threats all over the yard. You know, the last three minutes and 30 seconds of that game against Temple, they have home run hitters that can touch the paint and touch the end zone at any given moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSo yeah, they’re dangerous in a lot of ways.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Toledo brings an eight-game home winning streak<\/p>\n

The teams are playing for just the second time. The first meeting was on Sept. 24, 2022, when the Aztecs beat the Rockets 17-14 in\u00a0their first season at Snapdragon Stadium.<\/p>\n

Lewis hasn\u2019t given an update on Lucky Sutton\u2019s \u201clower-body\u201d injury that kept him out of the JMU game. Lewis said it was a game-time decision to sit Sutton after saying days earlier that he would be good to go.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sutton\u2019s absence opened the door for sophomore transfer Javion Kinnard to have a monster game. He rushed 33 times for 181 yards and one score, and had an additional 70 yards on four catches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Senegal struggled again, throwing two interceptions and just one touchdown. He\u2019s now thrown four interceptions and four TDs in three games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Toledo junior quarterback John Alan Richter\u00a0had career highs with 36 completions, 429 yards passing and four touchdowns in the win against Temple. In the final three drives alone, he was 10 for 15 for 151 yards and two scores.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Rockets have won eight straight games at the Glass Bowl, with an average margin of 35.4 points.<\/p>\n
