The Aztecs take back to the field this weekend on Montezuma Mesa for the start of spring practice. Coming off a 4-8 season, but with a fresh crop of recruits and a year to establish himself, head coach Brady Hoke is looking for bigger and better things from SDSU.

QUALCOMM STADIUM–Leading Wyoming 27-6 after three quarters, the San Diego State Aztecs were in prime position to earn their 5th win, close out their home schedule on a high note, win on Senior Night, and stay in line for their first bowl appearance in 11 years.
Then came the fourth quarter.
A Cowboys stampede turned into an Aztecs collapse. Wyoming erupted for 24 unanswered points, blocked a field goal which would have iced the game for SDSU, and recovered a Hunter Hewitt fumble on a pooch kickoff with 2:07 to play. Ian Watts’ 43 yard field goal gave the Cowboys the lead with 23 seconds to play, and a last-gasp Hail Mary pass was knocked out of Roberto Wallace’s hands in the end zone on the game’s last play.
It all added up to a stunning 30-27 Wyoming win, dropping the Aztecs to 4-6 on the season.
SDSU head coach Brady Hoke was practically vibrating with anger after the game:
