SDSU Preview!

Well, the 2009 College Football season is less than a month away and I feel it is time to lay out my 2009 SDSU preview!

Here are the basics:

DEFENSE:The horrible defense is back again with a vengeance and are hoping to hold the other offenses to less than 30 points a game.

The HOKE: The defense is now run my Rocky Long, who is a defensive genius.

OFFENSE: The horrible offense is back again with the same cast with more experience. Ryan Lindley is the only hope with the worst running backs in the nation returning for another year. They need to hit the weight room.

The HOKE: The offense is now run by Al Borges who was the former offensive coordinator of the year. As a result, there is respectability.

OVERALL: The team is coming off of a 2-10 season in which they lost to Cal Poly (you can see my response in a lower post). This team is similar to last years except for many players being a lot healthier. Russell Allen was lost to the NFL so that will not help.

The HOKE: Brady Hoke is coming off a 12-2 season with Ball State, a school which has blown for longer than the Aztecs. If he could get them to win, SDSU should be cake.

Here is the schedule for this year (with my predictions afterward):
9-5-09 at UCLA L 38-10
9-12-09 SOUTHERN UTAH W 44-14
9-19-09 at Idaho W 28-14
9-26-09 at Air Force L 28-21
10-3-09 NEW MEXICO STATE W 44-14
10-17-09 BRIGHAM YOUNG L 63-14
10-24-09 at Colorado State L 28-24
10-31-09 NEW MEXICO W 28-21
11-7-09 TCU L 55-10
11-14-09 WYOMING W 10-7
11-21-09 at Utah L 46-10
11-28-09 at UNLV L 28-7


My prediction: 5-7
Best case: 8-4 with losses to Utah, TCU, BYU, UCLA
Worst case: 3-9 with wins vs Idaho, New Mexico State, Southern Utah

Here are my Aztec Stars for the year:

Offense: Ryan Lindley QB
Defense: Miles Burris LB
Special Teams: Mekell Wesley WR

We will see how this turns out. We can only hope that SDSU gets a surprise victory over UCLA and shocks us all. LOL.
