Aztecs lose opener as offense struggles, 28-17
First Quarter
The game began with Fresno State receiving the kickoff and going 3 and out. The Aztecs go 3 and out also but the punt by Simnjanovski is fumbled and Caliste recovers the loose ball for SDSU at the Bulldogs 7 yard line and on the first play Truvillion runs it in for the TD. Both teams continue to struggle trading 3 and outs until SDSU kicker Kirovski misses a 45 yard FG try wide and on the 2nd play Grady hits Davis in stride with a 74 yard TD pass that ties the game. SDSU receives the kickoff and drives 78 yards in only 4 plays as a 43 yard Sheriff to Tolver pass and a Truvillion 25 yard run set up a 7 yard Sheriff to Tolver strike for a TD and the quarter ends during the ensuing Fresno drive,14-7 Aztecs.

Second Quarter
The Bulldogs drive continues in the 2nd quarter and the 78 yard drive is capped off with a Grady to Berrian 36 yard TD pass.
