Game Recap
The San Diego State Aztecs won the last time they faced the UNLV Rebels, and things went their way on Saturday, too. San Diego State blew past UNLV 34-6. The contest was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Aztecs had established a 27-6 advantage.
San Diego State's RB Greg Bell looked sharp as he rushed for one TD and 111 yards on 19 carries. RB Chance Bell was in the mix, too, providing San Diego State with two touchdowns.
San Diego State's defense was a presence as well, as it got past the Rebels' offensive line to sack the quarterback five times. Leading the way was LB Caden McDonald and his 2.5 sacks. Those were the first sacks for McDonald.
No one had a standout game offensively for UNLV, but they got scores from WR Steve Jenkins and QB Max Gilliam.
The game leaves both teams with the exact same record at 0-0.
The Aztecs will take on the Utah State Aggies at 2 p.m. ET next Saturday at Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium. Unlike San Diego State, Utah State will be stumbling in off of a loss. UNLV will be playing at home against the Nevada Wolf Pack at 3 p.m. ET next Saturday.
