San Diego State vs Central Michigan: Who Will Win

The Central Michigan running game has been great so far, but the overall results haven’t been there. Even with 335 yards on the ground against Ball State it took everything to hang on in a 37-34, and why?

The defense has struggled.

Speaking of having a hard time getting going, San Diego State and its new AzFast attack under Sean Lewis - the former Kent State head coach - came up with just one touchdown and ten points over the last two games.

The soon-to-be Pac-12 program had two weeks off too rest, the passing game will start to click, and the Aztec offense will look like it’s supposed to. The D that couldn’t stop the run against Oregon State or Cal will be far better.
