SDSU President's Blog
Something very special happened this past Friday night. In a match-up of two teams undefeated in conference play,Aztec football players celebrate a score during the team's 48-14 victory over Utah State. our football team defeated a strong Utah State team, 48-14, in front of a crowd of 26,000 members of our community and a national TV audience. Our team had faced significant challenges at the beginning of the season, and it was wonderful to see the team overcome these adversities. While the game was a challenging one for our Utah State counterparts, they are a fine team and we know they also will rebound. For us, we look forward to the remainder of the season, including our next home game – the Homecoming game against Wyoming on Nov. 14.
In many ways, our victory illustrated the best of college football. Supported by our community, our players and coaches worked together, they persevered through adversity and their hard work and effort were rewarded. It was great to hear our community’s pride in SDSU’s athletics’ achievements – the women’s soccer team won its fourth consecutive conference title on Sunday – as I traveled throughout the city this weekend.
