2015 SEASON
UNIVERSITY INFORMATION
2015 Season Outlook In 2014, opportunity not only came knocking for San Diego State, it did so like a New Year’s Eve reveler, horns blaring, cymbals clashing and a general disregard for those failing to acknowledge its arrival. It was a din difficult to ignore, one with a familiar but simultaneously foreign ring. Certainly, another bowl bid was in the offing, but so was a step onto the national stage, where those who have forever perceived your program as little more than a pest are suddenly struck by your sizable potential. So when quarterback Quinn Kaehler’s 6-yard touchdown pass to tight end Daniel Brunskill gave SDSU a 20-0 lead with 7:33 left in the opening half of last season’s Week 12 game at Boise State, the step to that national stage seemed as elementary as hurdling a garden hose. Given that the Aztecs’ final two games would both be staged at Qualcomm Stadium --- games that would ultimately culminate in wins over Air Force (30-14) and San José State (38-7) --- a trip to the Mountain West championship game was not merely possible, but, indeed, quite plausible. If the MW champion finished ranked ahead of champions from the other "Group of Five" conferences by the selection committee of the College Football Playoff, it would be guaranteed a non-semifinal berth in one of the "New Year's Six" bowls. Boise State rallied to beat SDSU, 38-29, topped Fresno State in the conference title game and was promptly awarded a spot in the Fiesta Bowl, where it held off Arizona, 38-30, to finish with a ranking of No. 16 in the nation. It does little, of course, to relive regret, lest one be doomed to forever sport its hooded cloak of despair. Where the Aztecs are concerned, pity parties are no longer part of the picture, as evidenced by a school-record five consecutive bowl appearances. And if no other quote than this is ever affixed to SDSU’s bulletin board in 2015, the following, as offered by former Boise State cornerback Cleshawn Page, should serve as sufficient fuel for the fire: “It was drilled into us, ‘OK, they don’t respect us, so we’re going to make them respect us.” If there is a fallacy in Page’s argument --- not the least of which being that SDSU had beaten Boise State in each of the previous two meetings --- it’s that nobody makes the Aztecs
do anything anymore, lest it be their less-than-easily-gratified head coach. Where once this program had its lunch money stolen so many times it surrendered it on principle, it now exits battles cherishing every black eye and bloodied lip. Consider: SDSU, virtually bereft of passing game last season (the Aztecs ranked 106th in passing offense among the nation’s 125 FBS teams), still finished with a winning record for the fifth straight year and held a fourth-quarter lead in three of its five regular-season losses. Despite having just 16 seniors, SDSU nonetheless became one of just 27 schools nationally to earn a bowl bid for the fifth consecutive season. With 41 wins over the last five years, the Aztecs have matched their victory total from their previous 123 games. SDSU enters the 2015 campaign having been picked to win the West Division of the Mountain West by a number of media outlets, including ESPN, The Sporting News, Athlon Sports, Lindy’s Sports and Phil Steele’s College Football Magazine.
n The
Aztec Offense
If there is a single constant in the game of football, it’s that winning without a healthy/proven quarterback can be an exercise in exasperation. Such was the case with the Aztecs in 2014, when an injury to senior starter Quinn Kaehler forced SDSU to turn to true freshman Nick Bawden. Predictably, production in the passing game significantly dipped as the Aztecs finished 10th among the Mountain West’s 12 teams in passing offense. As such, identifying SDSU’s liability was not exactly a time-intensive study for opposing defenses, which simply crowded the line of scrimmage to eliminate the team’s true home-run threat --- running back Donnel Pumphrey. “When Quinn Kaehler got hurt and couldn’t play last season, we really struggled at the quarterback position,” said head coach Rocky Long. “And when he did play after he got hurt, he wasn’t nearly as effective as he was before he got injured. It limited what we could do on offense and it gave

19 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS opponents some advantages knowing that we were going to have to run it a lot. But it also proved that we could run it, because other teams were trying to stop it and we were still effective doing it.” How effective? The Aztecs finished No. 26 in the nation and third in the MW in rushing offense, grinding out an average of 216.1 yards per game. SDSU, which may arguably possess the deepest corps of running backs in the history of the program, returns six starters on offense, including three of its five offensive linemen.
QUARTERBACKS Returning players with starting experience: None If this position proved a concern for the Aztecs in 2014, it is now an arms race. Maxwell Smith and Jake Rodrigues, a pair of transfers who have spent time under center at Kentucky and Oregon, respectively, add substantial experience to a competition that also includes talented redshirt freshman Christian Chapman. The 6-5, 235-pound Smith, a senior from Granada Hills who threw for more than 3,000 yards with 21 touchdowns against SEC defenses at Kentucky before undergoing shoulder surgery prior to the 2014 season, emerged from spring drills as No. 1 on the depth chart. Chapman, a former standout at Carlsbad High, heads into fall camp ranked No. 2 on the depth chart, while Rodrigues, a sophomore who played in seven games for Oregon as a redshirt freshman, is currently No. 3. “I think we’ll make a fairly quick decision (on a starter),” Long said. “The positive is that we have three guys who could be our starting quarterback, so we have much more depth than we’ve had in the past. One of them (Smith) has experience being in a “big-time” program in the SEC for two years before he got hurt. One of them (Chapman) is a redshirt freshman who knows our system probably better than the other two, and (Rodrigues) had experience at Oregon. But we’ve got to decide pretty quickly who the top two guys are so that they get enough reps.”

Rest assured that while Long will keep close tabs on his defensive charges this fall, he will be no less focused on the progress of a group that clearly fell far short of meeting expectations in 2014. “They better get a whole lot better than they were last year,” he said. “I was impressed (during spring drills) with (former quarterback) Chase Favreau, not because he’s become that much better of a receiver, but because he now has a receiver’s mentality instead of wanting to be a quar-

average of 25.0 yards on kickoff returns as a true freshman last season ranked 29th nationally, is one of the fastest players on the squad. The dilemma? One football. “We have more depth there than at any position on our team,” Long said. “Chase Price is a good running back in his own right, as are Marcus Stamps and Rashaad Penny, and they all offer different things. Chase is the quickest and might be the hardest to tackle, because he’s short and he’s almost 200 pounds. Marcus Stamps has really good speed and he’ll run over you in a second, but he’s not as elusive in space. Rashaad Penny is not only elusive, but he’s fast. I don’t know if he’s as fast as DJ, but he’s fast. “But it’s hard to get three tailbacks the ball; you can’t do it. We’ll use Penny as a return guy, and you’ll see Marcus (Stamps) in there on short-yardage situations. It is really the one position on this team that we don’t have to worry about.” Nor need Long worry about fullback Dakota Gordon, a senior who has come to epitomize a punishing position that while increasingly rare in the college ranks, is a staple at SDSU. In his first season with the Aztecs in 2014, Gordon, a transfer from Fresno City College, finished third on the team in rushing with an average of 4.2 yards per carry.
terback. Mikah Holder has a huge upside, but in reality he really hasn’t done anything yet. Eric Judge is fast, but he has to be better at running routes. “Jemond Hazely has enormous ability and if he plays to that ability we’ll be in good shape. But he’s a senior now and it’s about time that he plays like it. Lloyd Mills (a secondteam all-MW selection last season) is probably the most accomplished receiver we have. He played well last season and he’s an excellent punt returner (11.4 yards per return). But none of those other guys played well last year. They had one or two plays that were exciting to watch, but in terms of consistency they were terrible.” It’s stern criticism, but a critique not without a measure of merit. Three of the team’s top seven receivers last season were either running backs or fullback Adam Roberts, which, to be fair, was also a byproduct of a simplified offense due to the injury to Kaehler. Judge, who is currently listed No. 2 on the depth chart behind Holder at one of the receiver spots, finished second on the team last season with 24 catches for 471 yards (19.6 yards per catch) and two touchdowns. Mills, who like Judge did not participate in spring drills while mending from injury, ranked No. 4 among Aztec receivers in 2014 with 22 catches for 310 yards and a touchdown. Favreau, who arrived as a dual-threat quarterback at SDSU in 2013, enters fall camp as the No. 1 receiver on the depth chart opposite Holder. “We think all of these guys are making progress,” said Long, “but they haven’t done it against the kind of teams we’re going to face.”
u
At 5-9 and a most generous listing of 180 pounds, junior Donnel Pumphrey has officially left his head coach in a state of wonderment. “He’s just different,” Long said. “He’s small, but he’s also a guy who runs between the tackles really well. We compare him to (former SDSU standout and current Denver Broncos running back) Ronnie Hillman, because when you look at somebody like Adam Muema (more than 1,300 yards rushing in 2012 and ‘13), you’re talking about a guy who was 205 pounds. “I think Ronnie is probably faster than Donnel. If you’re talking about getting them the ball in space, they’re very similar because both of them are really good at making people miss. DJ (Pumphrey) catches the ball better than Ronnie. He pass-protects better than Ronnie. And he runs between the tackles a lot better than Ronnie. If things looked like they were plugged up in the middle, Ronnie was going to bounce it outside and see if he could outrun you. DJ will run it in there and run over people. At about 170 pounds, I have absolutely no idea how he does it, but I’m really glad that he does.” A first-team all-MW selection in 2014, Pumphrey, who also was team’s third-leading receiver, finished as the nation’s fourth-leading rusher (143.6 yards per game). He set a single-season school record with 1,867 yards while scoring 20 touchdowns and averaging an eye-popping 6.8 yards per carry, a mark that ranked 10th in the country. He finished eighth in the nation in all-purpose yardage (155.9 ypg), was ninth in rushing touchdowns and scored 120 points, which tied for 17th nationally among non-kickers. And while Pumphrey, who has five career games of 150 or more yards, is squarely center stage, the surrounding cast has little chance of being omitted from the marquee. Senior Chase Price rushed for 674 yards and five touchdowns last season, while sophomore Marcus Stamps averaged a whopping 7.9 yards per carry. Sophomore Rashaad Penny, whose

existence at SDSU since his arrival in 2011, began his career as a tight end. He was moved to the defensive line in 2012 before returning to tight end 2013 and ’14. Now a senior, Craighead has put on more than 30 pounds from his listed playing weight of 265 last season in hopes of filling the void left by Greene. “Robert Craighead is big enough and strong enough and mature enough, but he’s never played there before,” Long said. Junior Kwayde Miller, who played in two games last season while backing up Seattle Seahawks fourth-round draft pick Terry Poole, held the No. 1 spot on the depth chart at left tackle following spring drills. Juniors Arthur Flores and Austin Maass are expected to compete for the starting job at center.

among the team’s tight ends last season. But Long also is intrigued by the futures of sophomores David Wells (6-5, 255) and Darryl Richardson (6-5, 250). Wells has excellent hands, while Richardson is a former dualthreat quarterback from Florida who was moved to tight end upon his arrival at SDSU in 2013. “We think we’ve got a good player in Brunskill because he’s played a lot, but the other two guys have enormous upside,” Long said. “They’re tall, they’re big, they can run and they can catch.”
OFFENSIVE LINE
AZTEC FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Returning players with starting experience: Nico Siragusa*, Darrell Greene*, Pearce Slater* * - denotes returning starter Offensive linemen cherish run blocking, and never was that evidenced more than last season where the Aztecs were concerned. Given its limitations in the passing game, SDSU ran the ball 168 more times than it passed, allowing its linemen to largely play a game of seek and destroy. The result was that the Aztecs steamrolled opponents for an average of 216.1 yards per game on the ground, a total that ranked 26th nationally and third in the MW. They rushed for more than 250 yards four times and more than 390 twice. But with all seasons that begin anew, coaches are presented with a fresh set of challenges. SDSU anticipates that its offensive line in 2015 will be well-seasoned in terms of experience with three starters returning, but will have to overcome some unexpected challenges. “Because of the things that have happened, we don’t have the experience that we thought we’d have,” Long said. “We’re going to have to have some of the less-experienced guys come through.” As well as additional leadership from Slater and Siragusa, who return as the starters at right tackle and left guard, respectively. One of the more intriguing stories will be at Greene’s right guard spot, where senior Robert Craighead enters fall camp as the projected starter. Craighead, who has lived a nomadic

Aztec Defense
Who starts and who doesn’t matters little in Long’s defense, which substitutes with greater frequency than a hockey team making line changes. And if the Aztecs can find some depth at linebacker and in the secondary (the returning starters are quality), there might not be a remedy for the pain this group could potentially inflict. The same unit that led the MW in scoring defense and total defense a year ago, as well as ranking among the top 25 nationally in both categories (the Aztecs finished No. 13 in allowing 19.8 points and No. 16 in yielding an average of 332.5 yards), returns eight starters. This from a group that in 2014 featured eight first-time starters in the team’s season opener, the highest total on either side of the ball by any team in the country. “We have to get some depth on the defensive line and find some linebackers,” Long said. “We only have two experienced linebackers, Calvin Munson and Jake Fely. We have a whole bunch of guys who haven’t played at linebacker. We have a pretty good starting defensive line, but after that it’s all young guys. So, they have to prove they can play, too.” As it stands, the Aztecs return two of their three starting

defensive linemen from a year ago and their entire starting secondary. Further confirming that Long’s 3-3-5 defense can prove as baffling as solving a Rubik’s cube with a blindfold, SDSU during the 2014 regular season recorded 68 tackles for loss and 24 sacks, with no fewer than 20 different players registering tackles for loss and 12 posting sacks. The Aztecs allowed only 252 points last year after surrendering 412 (31.7 points per game) in 2013.
DEFENSIVE LINE Returning players with starting experience: Alex Barrett*, Christian Heyward, Jon Sanchez* * - denotes returning starter When Long, the winningest head coach in Mountain West history, singles out a particular player as being the best in the league at his position, one tends to pay heed. When that player is moved to a new position to make room for another player of quality, one tends to wonder just how far Long will go in making opposing offenses cry “uncle.” But such is the case in 2015 where Barrett, a junior whom Long calls the best nose tackle in the MW, has been moved to defensive end to make room for senior Christian Heyward. Heyward, a transfer from USC who came on strong at the end of last season, had knee surgery in March but is expected to be ready for fall camp. “Alex Barrett is the best nose tackle in the league,” said Long, “but we moved him to end because he’s a little quicker and Heyward is a little bigger and stronger.” In the Aztecs’ three-man front, senior Jon Sanchez, who has played in 39 straight games, is projected to start at the end spot opposite Barrett. Sanchez’s backup is expected to be junior Micah Seau, who has played linebacker since his freshman season in 2013. “We have some depth in our defensive line,” Long said. “The depth is young, but they are players who have been with us for a while now.”

Returning players with starting experience: Donny Hageman*, Lloyd Mills*, Jeff Overbaugh*, Rashaad Penny* * - denotes returning starter Perhaps before bidding adieu to a game he has coached for 43 years, Long can enjoy one season at SDSU without being questioned about the humble history of the team’s placekicking. Just not this season. Said Long: “I have people asking me all the time, ‘What are you going to do about a kicker?’ They only remember the last kick (Hageman) missed (in a 17-16 loss to Navy in last year’s Poinsettia Bowl). People don’t remember that he was good throughout the rest of the year. He was even good in that game until the last kick.” If Donny Hageman wasn’t perfect last season, connecting on 20-of-25 field-goal attempts, he was more than perfect in putting an end to the perils of placekicking at SDSU. Only a season before, Long found himself reevaluating the need for kickers when the Aztecs made just 8-of-16 field goals. Hageman, who also was 37-of-37 on extra-point attempts, hit 6-of-7 field goals on attempts from 40-49 yards. Junior Tanner Blain, a transfer from El Camino College who spent two seasons at Kentucky and will have two years of eligibility remaining, is expected to inherit the punting duties following the midseason departure of Seamus McMorrow and the graduation of Joel Alesi. Lloyd Mills turned in an outstanding performance as a punt returner last season, ranking second in the MW and No. 11 nationally with an average of 11.4 yards per return. Rashaad Penny’s average of 25.0 yards on kickoff returns in 2014 was 29th-best in the country. Overbaugh, a senior long snapper, was named a fourthteam preseason All-American by Phil Steele’s College Football Magazine.

In 2014, linebackers Josh Gavert, Cody Galea and Derek Largent combined for 175 tackles. A year later, you won’t find their names on the roster. All were seniors. But it was Munson, the team’s Defensive Player of the Year and an honorable-mention all-MW performer, who led the team in tackles for loss (10.5), sacks (four) and interceptions (four) and tied for the team lead with two forced fumbles. Starting all 13 games last season as a true sophomore, he finished second on the team in total tackles (83) and had an interception return of 64 yards, the 31st longest among FBS teams last season. And then there is former starter and senior Jake Fely, who was granted a medical waiver by the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility last summer. The waiver came on the heels of neck injury that occurred during the spring, an injury that resulted in Fely suffering a slipped disk in his neck that required fusing. Only three games after returning from his neck injury, Fely suffered a dislocated wrist in the team’s Week 12 loss at Boise State. He underwent surgery and was lost for the season. Fely, who did not participate in spring drills but whom Long says is 100 percent healthy for the upcoming season, has also suffered a lacerated liver and a broken foot since arriving at SDSU from Oceanside High in 2010. If Fely can avoid injury, he brings a weighty resume to the table. In 36 career games (30 starts), he has 182 tackles (119 solo), 21 tackles for loss, 10.5 sacks and five forced fumbles. “We hope he can stay healthy,” Long said of Fely, who recorded 12 tackles (five solo), a pass breakup and a tackle for loss in three games off the bench last season. “Our situation at linebacker is very similar to the depth problem we have in our secondary. Once you get past Munson and Fely, we have a couple of junior college guys coming in, but we run a complicated defense and there’s a lot to learn. How fast those other guys learn it will add a lot to our depth. They’re
It’s a reunion party for the Aztec secondary, and no one is likely to enjoy it more than Whittaker, a senior who in December was granted a medical waiver by the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility. It’s a group with talent and experience across the board, with cornerbacks Whittaker and Kazee having earned second-team all-MW honors in 2014. A year ago, the Aztecs’ pass defense ranked No. 10 in the nation in passing yards allowed per game (178.5) and No. 19 in pass efficiency defense (112.10). All five returning starters in the secondary ranked among the team’s top seven tacklers last year. McGee, a junior who has settled into the defense’s “Aztec” position, finished tied with Lomax and Whittaker for third on the squad last season when each posted 63 total tackles. Kazee finished with 58 total stops, while Smith, who along Lomax comprises the defense’s two starters at the “Warrior” spots, had 55 tackles. “We think we have a good secondary, but we don’t have the depth,” Long said. “We have players on the two-deep who do have the experience factor, but right now they’re pretty average players. Because we play five defensive backs, we have a pretty high depth factor. If we only played four, we would have all kinds of guys. “Now, we have two really good corners (Whittaker and Kazee), but the guys behind them haven’t proven yet that they can play. Those guys need to show they can play or we have to hope we can go through the season without anyone getting hurt.”

HEAD C OACH
n the 16-year history of the Mountain West, no football coach is more synonymous with success than Aztec head coach Rocky Long. Named San Diego State’s 18th head coach on Jan. 12, 2011, he begins his fifth year at the helm of the Aztecs. He will also continue his role as the squad’s defensive coordinator, a position that he has held when he first arrived on campus in 2009. Long is the winningest head coach in the history of the Mountain West and has helped usher in two of the biggest turnarounds at MW schools - New Mexico and San Diego State. Over the last six seasons (two as defensive coordinator and four as head coach and defensive coordinator), Long helped institute a hard-nosed, blue-collar, physical-style of football on Montezuma Mesa that revitalized a football program that had been struggling to find an identity for decades. Now firmly established, that identity has taken the San Diego State football program to heights that would have been unthinkable just a decade ago. The Aztecs have been to a school-record five consecutive bowl games and has enjoyed its best four-year run in nearly four decades. This SDSU run has placed Aztec Football among the best in the state and in the nation. Since 2010, San Diego State’s 41-24 record (63.1 percent), trails only Stanford and USC among the seven FBS schools in California in winning percentage, placing the Aztecs ahead of among others - UCLA and Fresno State. With five consecutive bowl appearances, San Diego State is one of just 29 FBS schools to advance to postseason play every season since 2010 and just one of three - Boise State and Northern Illinois

g Two-Time
Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year
g In his first four seasons as head coach, guided SDSU to its most
victories (32) in a four-year span in 38 seasons
- to make a bowl appearance each of the last five seasons from a Group of 5 conference. Long’s fifth Aztec team is a veteran group that many have picked to be the favorite to win the West Division of the Mountain West. g The Foundation
In December 2008, Long was named defensive coordinator at San Diego State after serving as head coach at his alma mater, New Mexico, for 11 seasons. He inherited one of the worst defensive units statistically in the country. The previous season (2008), the Aztecs went 2-10 and posted one victory over a FBS team. The team’s defense allowed an average of 37.2 points, 460.8 yards, 247.5 rushing yards and had a passing efficiency defense rating of 151.5. San Diego State also ranked among the bottom eight nationally in all four of those categories, allowing 35 or more points in seven of its final eight games of the season. Enter Long and his attacking 3-3-5 defense, and the improvement was immediate. Despite employing a drastically different style, Long, in his first year as SDSU’s defensive coordinator in 2009, managed to shave more than a touchdown a game off the team’s average points allowed and took more than 78 yards per outing off of the total offense allowed figure. In 2010, Long built a top-40 defense that ceded 20 points or less six times, as the Aztecs posted a winning record for the first time in 12 years,

g Building On Success
g Long is a member of both the University of New Mexico Hall of Honor (inducted in 1996) and the New Mexico Sports Hall of Fame (inducted in 2011). g Long met his wife, Debby, while coaching the Pi Beta Phi sorority team in the spring of 1971. He guided the sorority to consecutive undefeated championship seasons in 1971 and 1972. Long’s defense was not scored upon in any game in either year. g Bobby Knight paid Long a home visit and recruited the twosport athlete to play basketball at Army. g Long was a three-time academic all-conference selection, earned the WAC Scholar-Athlete Award (1970) and was an honorable mention Academic All-American in 1969. He earned a coveted NCAA postgraduate scholarship in 1974. g Long has been on the winning sideline of the San Diego State-New Mexico game in 13 stright meetings. He won the first eight meetings as the head coach at UNM and has been on the sidelines as the defensive coordinator or head coach in Aztec victories in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2014. g Long was the starting quarterback at UNM when the Lobos posted consecutive winning seasons in 1970-71. That was the only time that occurred in the 33 seasons between 1964 and 1996. g At New Mexico, he left the program as the all-time leading rusher (2,071 yards) and threw just 23 interceptions in 30 career games. g Both of Rocky and Debby Long’s children were Division I student-athletes and have coaching ties. Hannah, guided Division III Southwestern University to a 26-9 record last season and has been named the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference coach of the year four times. Collegiately, she was a twosports athlete at Portland State, Roxanne, who played collegiately at Oklahoma, was a successful basketball coach at Rogers State University, before steeping down to pursue her Ph.D. be competing for conference championships, year-in and year-out,” Long said. “Now, how many you win is determined by a whole lot of factors, but we ought to be able to get to the point where we compete yearly for it.” Prior to accepting the head coaching position at New Mexico, Long served as defensive coordinator for 12 seasons at three different schools. He was the defensive coordinator for two years under Bob Toledo at UCLA in 1996-97, for five seasons at Oregon State from 1991-95, and for five campaigns at Wyoming from 1981-85. He also served as an assistant coach at TCU and the CFL’s British Columbia Lions after starting his career at New Mexico as a graduate assistant coach in 1972. Originally a defensive back, Long became a three-year starter at quarterback for the Lobos from 1969-71. He earned team MVP honors three times and was the Western Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year as a senior. He is a 1974 graduate of New Mexico and was awarded an NCAA postgraduate scholarship.

AZTEC FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Long had already made the transition from defensive coordinator to head coach once before, as he directed New Mexico to unparalleled success from 1998-2008. During those 11 years, Long compiled a 65-69 record, including seven seasons with six victories or more. To put that accomplishment in perspective, consider that since 1984, the Lobos are 60-151 with only three six-plus win seasons in the 17 campaigns without Long at the helm. At New Mexico, Long compiled a school-record 65 victories and led the Lobos to five bowl game appearances in his final seven seasons, despite inheriting a team that had only three winning seasons the previous 15 years. His teams were also bowl eligible in seven of his final eight campaigns. Long, the 2002 Mountain West Coach of the Year, has earned a national reputation for producing one of the nation’s stingiest defensive units. In his final nine campaigns in Albuquerque, Long’s defensive units ranked among the top 30 in fewest yards allowed six times and among the top 40 nationally against the rush every year. In addition, six times his units were among the top 26 in fewest rushing yards allowed per game, including fifth-place finishes in both 2001 and 2003. While at New Mexico, Long coached 13 players selected in the NFL Draft, 10 players who earned All-America honors and 44 firstteam all-conference selections. In addition, four Lobos garnered Academic All-America accolades five times during his tenure. And Long does not mince words when describing what his vision for his San Diego State football program is. “Everybody should anticipate that this program eventually will
g Long was one of four NCAA players that visited U.S. servicemen in Vietnam in the summer of 1971. Along with Johnny Musso (Alabama), Lydell Mitchell (Penn State) and Stan Mauldin (Texas), Long spent two weeks in the country going to different U.S. bases.

g The Background
Long Tidbits
u
Following the departure of the previous head coach, Long took over the program entering the 2011 campaign, while continuing to serve as the defensive coordinator. The 2011 campaign was no different, as he became the first Aztec head coach to lead the team to a bowl game in his debut season. SDSU compiled an 8-5 record, including its first 3-0 start in 30 years, while also snapping a 19-game losing streak against Pac-10/12 foes and a 23-game skid vs. schools from automaticqualifying BCS conferences. In 2012, Long garnered his second Mountain West Coach-ofthe-Year award after guiding the Aztecs to their first conference championship since 1998 and a third straight bowl appearance. Despite a modest fifth-place prediction in the MW preseason poll, Long and SDSU closed out the regular season by winning seven consecutive games, matching the program’s longest victory streak since 1980-81. During that stretch, the Aztecs ranked fifth in the nation in allowing 4.7 yards per play, while limiting the opposition to 19 points or less on five occasions. In 2013, Long directed SDSU to an unprecedented fourth straight postseason appearance, capped by an impressive 49-24 victory over Buffalo in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. With Long at the controls, the 2013 Aztecs became just the 19th team out of 488 from 1980-2013 to advance to a bowl game after starting the season with an 0-3 record. The gritty SDSU squad flashed its mettle down the stretch, rallying from fourth-quarter deficits in five games and led the FBS Division with three victories when trailing by 14 points or more. Last season, San Diego State advanced to its fifth straight bowl game and finishing in a tie for first in the Western Division of the Mountain West. The Aztecs finished in the top 20 nationally in nearly every defensive category, including scoring defense (13th) and total defense (16th). In addition, SDSU posted a perfect 6-0 record at home during the regular season.

FIVE STRAIGHT BOWL GAME APPEARANCES
Aztecs Finished Tied For MW West Division Title; Reach Bowl Game For Fifth Consecutive Season San Diego State persevered through injuries to key players and close losses to post a 76 record in 2014 and advance to a school-record fifth consecutive bowl game. The Aztecs won all seven games by double figures, joining Arkansas and Rice as the only teams in the nation to post a winning record with each victory coming by at least 10 points. The Aztecs ended Mountain West play with a 5-3 record, and tied Fresno State for the top mark in the Western Division.
Defense Does The Talking
Success Despite The Struggles
In 2014, San Diego State posted one of the best defensive seasons in school history. The Aztecs ended the year ranked among the top 20 in nearly every statistical category, including points allowed (19.8, 13th), yards allowed (332.5, 16th), passing yards allowed (178.5, 10th) and team passing efficiency defense (112.10, 19th). SDSU did not allow any opponent to reach 400 yards of total offense in its final nine games of the 2014 campaign. That is tied for the second-longest active streak nationally.
San Diego State’s success in 2014 was all the more amazing due to its struggles in the passing game. With a senior (Quinn Kaehler) who missed two starts due to injury and played less than 100 percent and a true freshman (Nick Bawden) who was pressed into duty twice as a starter and several other times as a reserve, SDSU did not have the balanced attack the coaching staff envisioned when the season began. San Diego State had the 17th-lowest passing efficiency rating in the nation last season (109.1). Of the teams with the 28 lowest passing ratings in the nation, only SDSU and Penn State posted winning records. The combined records of those 28 teams were 110-232 (32.2 percent).

AZTEC FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Ground Control San Diego State has enjoyed a schoolrecord five consecutive seasons with at least 2,000 yards rushing and has produced a 1,000-yard running back in each of those campaigns. Sophomore Donnel Pumphrey (2014: 1,867 rushing yards, 6.8 ypc, 20 TDs) proved to be one of the most productive running backs in the country. In 2014, the only two players in the nation to rank among the top 10 in rushing yards per game, all-purpose yards per game, rushing touchdowns and rushing yards per carry were Doak Walker Award winner Melvin Gordon (Wisconsin) and Pumphrey. Since 2010, San Diego State ranks 25th in the nation in rushing yards (12,339) and rushing yards per game (189.8), and tied for 22nd in rushing touchdowns (143).
Aztecs Honored San Diego State sophomore running back Donnel Pumphrey earned 2014 Mountain West Football All-Conference First-Team honors. The Aztecs also had four players - senior left tackle Terry Poole, cornerbacks Damontae Kazee and J.J. Whittaker and sophomore punt returner Lloyd Mills - selected to the second team. Additionally, senior linebacker Josh Gavert, junior right guard Darrell Greene, sophomore nose tackle Alex Barrett, sophomore linebacker Calvin Munson and sophomore Warrior (safety) Malik Smith each were honorable mention picks. The 10 overall all-conference selections were the most in the West Division of the MW and the fourth-highest total overall. The 10 players recognized (one first team, four second team, five honorable mention) were two more than 2013 (one first team, one second team, six honorable mention). Six of the 10 award winners were sophomores and eight have eligibility remaining in 2015.

Another Year To Remember g San Diego State advanced to its fifth consecutive bowl game. The Aztecs joined Stanford as the only football teams in California FBS or NFL - to reach the postseason in each of the past five seasons. g SDSU is one of 27 schools to play in a bowl game in each of the last five years, which marks the longest streak in the Mountain West. San Diego State and Boise State are the only two current Mountain West schools to reach a bowl game in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
g With bowl game appearances in a schoolrecord five straight seasons, the Aztecs equaled their total number of bowls played in the 43 prior campaigns (1967 through 2009). g Between 2000-09, SDSU was 38-80 (.322) and owned the nation’s 106th-best winning percentage. Since 2010, San Diego State is 41-24 (.631) and owns the nation’s 30th-best winning percentage. g Since the beginning of the 2010 campaign, San Diego State has posted a 41-24 record (.631). The only teams in the state of California with a better record during that span are Stanford and USC. g The 41 wins from 2010 through 2014 represents the highest five-year total since SDSU compiled a 45-8-2 record from 197377. g Since the beginning of 2010, the Aztecs have won 41 games. The total is the second most in the league, trailing only Boise State (43).

SAN DIEGO - Donnel Pumphrey ran for 111 yards and two touchdowns in San Diego State’s 38-7 victory over Northern Arizona in its 2014 regular-season opener at Qualcomm Stadium. Quinn Kaehler passed for 205 yards and a touchdown, completing 18 of 29 attempts, for the Aztecs, who scored the first 24 points of the game. After punting on its opening drive, SDSU forced the Lumberjacks into a 3-and-out and got the ball back with 11:58 left in the first. Pumphrey completed the 9-play, 63-yard scoring drive with a 1-yard touchdown run to put the home team on the board. After NAU punted again on its next possession, the Aztecs mounted a 7-play, 88-yard march to go up 14-0. The drive was highlighted by four straight first-down plays - a 14-yard pass from Kaehler to Eric Judge, a 15-yard strike from Kaehler to Ezell Ruffin, a 33-yard reverse handoff to Lloyd Mills and a 21yard scamper by Chase Price. Price finished off the drive with a 1-yard touchdown run on 3rd and goal. Northern Arizona tried to answer after getting all the way to the SDSU 30, thanks to a 50-yard catch and run by Alex Holmes from Kyren Poe on a 2nd and 15. San Diego State stood tall, however, and forced the Lumberjacks into a 45-yard field goal attempt. On the try, Alex Barrett reached up and swatted the kick down to keep NAU off the scoreboard. On the ensuing possession, the Aztecs got into field goal range of their own, thanks in part to an NAU pass interference call and a 33-yard run by Pumphrey. Donny Hageman then split the upright from 48 yards to put SDSU up, 17-0. It was the first successful field goal attempt by the Aztecs since Sept. 28, 2013 vs. New Mexico State. Hageman later looked to make it four straight scores for the Aztecs, but his 46-yard attempt went wide left, giving the ball back to the Lumberjacks.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - San Diego State held a pair of double-digit second-half leads at No. 21/23 North Carolina, but couldn’t hold on in a 31-27 loss at Kenan Stadium. Quinn Kaehler threw for a career-high 341 yards and a touchdown, and Donnel Pumphrey recorded his second straight 100-yard rushing game with 100 yards and two touchdowns on 17 attempts, but the Tar Heels scored on four straight possessions over the final two quarters and stopped the Aztecs’ last drive. Down, 31-27, with four minutes left, Kaehler used a 12-play, 72-yard drive to get SDSU all the way down to the UNC 3-yard line. His attempt from the 3, however, was intercepted by a diving Tim Scott in the corner of the end zone to end the game in favor of the Tar Heels. After UNC took Kaehler’s first interception back 100 yards for a score early in the second quarter, San Diego State bounced back with a quick 3-play, 75-yard drive, highlighted by a 19-yard gain by Pumphrey and a 56-yard touchdown strike from Kaehler to Eric Judge. The Aztecs got the ball back on the Tar Heels’ next drive as Alex Barrett deflected Mitch Trubisky’s pass attempt on the third play of the drive into the hands of Jon Sanchez, who returned it six yards to the UNC 41. Five plays later, Pumphrey punched it in from 12 yards to put SDSU up, 14-7, at halftime. At the half, San Diego State piled up 244 yards to North Carolina’s 108, while dominating the time of possession by almost nine minutes (19:16 to 10:44).

CORVALLIS, Ore. - Sean Mannion threw for 275 yards as Oregon State scored the final 28 points of the game in a 28-7 win over San Diego State at Reser Stadium. The Aztecs were outgained, 372-215, over the game and were behind on time of possession by almost 11 minutes (35:27-24:33). Additonally, the Beavers held a 25-11 advantage in first downs and ran 18 more plays (67-49). Donnel Pumphrey led SDSU once again with 89 rushing yards on 17 carries (5.2 avg.) and the team’s lone touchdown. San Diego State jumped out to a 7-0 lead on its opening 8-play, 75-yard drive. The Aztecs began the game with a 36-yard rush by Lloyd Mills to get all the way to the OSU 34-yard line. After an incomplete pass on a flea flicker, Pumphrey went to work with four straight carries for 27 yards. Quarterback Quinn Kaehler found Mills on a 5-yard completion to set up a 1st and goal on the 2, before Pumphrey finished the drive and give SDSU its lone lead of the game. After forcing Oregon State to punt, San Diego State got the ball back, but had to punt after going 3 and out. On Joel Alesi’s punt, however, the Beavers’ Victor Bolden fumbled the return and Pierre Romain pounced on it to give the Aztecs the ball back on OSU’s 38. SDSU, however, would give it right back after Kaehler took a sack and, and after a timeout, was picked off by Steven Nelson. Oregon State then put together a 12-play, 70-yard drive, ending with a 12-yard TD run by Terron Ward, to tie it up at 7-7. Each team exchanged punts until San Diego State used a 19-yard pass from Kaehler to Mills and a 15-yard run by Pumphrey to get to the Beaver 33-yard line. But the Aztecs drew two delay of game penalties and Kaehler was sacked for a loss of nine yards to get out of field goal range. OSU responded with a 8-play, 88-yard drive to close the half with another Ward touchdown, this time from two yards out, to take a 14-7 lead. Oregon State scored on each of its first two possessions in the second half (making it three straight San Diego State 7 0 0 0 - 7 overall), first a 5-yard TD run by Storm Woods and Oregon State 7 7 14 0 - 28 then a 2-yard scamper by Woods, to put the game out of reach.

SAN DIEGO - San Diego State began its quest for a 20th conference title with a 34-17 victory over UNLV in the Mountain West opener at Qualcomm Stadium. Donnel Pumphrey rushed for a career-high-tying 167 yards, including 107 yards in the first half, and a career-best four rushing touchdowns as the Aztecs won their 14th game in their last 16 league outings. Pumphrey, who also set a career high with 22 attempts, averaging 7.6 yards per carry, posted his third 100-yard rushing game in four contests on the year as SDSU posted its largest margin of victory (17 points) in a MW game since a 19-point win over Air Force on Nov. 10, 2012. It was the Rebels who got on the scoreboard first as they got into good field position after forcing San Diego State to a 3-and-out on its opening possession. The Aztecs’ Joel Alesi punted it 44 yards to Jay Mitchell at the UNLV 39, who returned it 48 yards to set up 1st and 10 on the 13. The SDSU defense, however, stood tall and held the Rebels to a 22-yard field goal by Jonathan Leiva. San Diego State wasted no time answering as Pumphrey took the first play of the team’s second drive 71 yards to the end zone to put the Aztecs on top, 7-3. After the two teams exchanged punts, UNLV drove 88 yards on seven plays, ending with a 44-yard touchdown pass from Blake Decker to Devonte Boyd. It would be the Rebels’ final lead of the game (107), however, as SDSU scored 24 unanswered points to break open a close contest, including three straight touchdowns by Pumphrey.

FRESNO, Calif. - San Diego State held Fresno State to 315 yards of total offense, forced two turnovers and had nine tackles for loss, but it was not enough as the Bulldogs pulled away late for a 24-13 victory at Bulldog Stadium. The Bulldogs forced three Aztec turnovers, converting them into 14 points in Fresno State’s 1,000th game in program history. Fresno State got on the scoreboard first when Kody Kroening converted a 37-yard field goal with 8:18 left in the first quarter. The Bulldogs got 40 of their 43 yards on the 8-play drive on the ground, including 27 by Marteze Waller and 13 from quarterback Brian Burrell. Fresno got the ball right back when Kyrie Wilson forced SDSU true freshman Nick Bawden to fumble the ball after a 7-yard gain. Fresno State then put together a 10-play, 67-yard drive over 4:19, ending with a Brandon Cornette 1-yard touchdown run on 4th and goal. The key play of the drive was a 49-yard pass from Burrell to Josh Harper on a 3rd and 12 from its own 31-yard line. SDSU got on the scoreboard just 1:16 into the second quarter when Donny Hageman split the uprights on a 24-yard field goal attempt. The Aztecs grounded and pounded their way to the field goal, gaining all 60 of their yards on the ground on the 11-play drive that ate up 4:15 of clock time. Running back Donnel Pumphrey had 33 of the 60 yards on the drive, while fullback Dakota Gordon had the other 27. After both teams traded punts to start the second half, Fresno State’s Burrell was stripped by Calvin Munson and Trey Lomax scooped up the loose ball and returned it 10 yards to the Bulldog 24. The Aztecs, however, were only able to cash in on a field goal and Hageman’s 36-yarder closed the gap to 10-6. Fresno State responded with an 11-play, 81-yard drive over 5:23, thanks in part to three SDSU penalties (two on fourth down, one on third down), concluding with Josh Quezada’s 2-yard touchdown run. It appeared San Diego State would get out of trouble early in the drive, but Daniel Brunskill was whistled for roughing the kicker on 4th and 8. Aztec head coach Rocky Long challenged the play and, although reSan Diego State 0 3 3 7 - 13 plays showed Brunskill’s fingers deflecting the ball, Fresno State 10 0 7 7 - 24 which went just 23 yards, the call on the field stood, resulting in a first down and SDSU losing a timeout.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Donnel Pumphrey rushed for a career-high 246 yards and two touchdowns and Chase Price added 141 yards and a score to lead San Diego State to a 24-14 win at New Mexico. Pumphrey and Price helped the Aztecs rush for 397 yards, the eighth most in single-game history (third most in SDSU’s Division I history), and lead San Diego State to the win in Rocky Long’s first game as a visiting head coach at his alma mater. Long, the all-time winningest coach in the Mountain West, who coached at New Mexico from 1998-08 and graduated from UNM in 1974, has now been on the winning sideline in each of the last 13 times the two teams have played (2001-08 as head coach with the Lobos, 2009-10 as defensive coordinator with the Aztecs and 2011, 2013-14 as the head coach at SDSU). Pumphrey got his 246 yards on 20 attempts (12.3 avg.) with 93 of them coming on a touchdown run in the third quarter. It was the true sophomore’s fourth 100-yard game of the season (in six contests) and seventh of his career. The 246 yards were the 13th most in a game in school history. Price rumbled for 141 yards on 17 carries (8.3 avg.) for his first 100-yard game of his career. He became the 74th player in school history to rush for at least 100 yards in a game. It was the 18th time in school history that San Diego State had multiple 100-yard rushers, where the Aztecs are 17-1 in those occasions. SDSU wasted no time on its opening drive, taking it 70 yards on 14 plays over 6:29 before Donny Hageman nailed a 25-yard field goal. It was the seventh straight make for Hageman, who improved to 8for-9 on the year on field goal tries. True freshman Nick Bawden, making his second career start, got San Diego State out of a jam with a 15-yard run on a third and 12 and later connected on a 43-yard strike to Eric Judge on a 3rd and 15, the longest pass of his short career.

SAN DIEGO - Donnel Pumphrey ran for 182 yards and a touchdown and Quinn Kaehler added 174 yards in the air in his first start in three games to lead San Diego State past Hawai‘i, 20-10, and into sole possession of first place in the West Division of the Mountain West at Qualcomm Stadium. The Aztecs outgained the Rainbow Warriors, 457-264, including a massive 283-90 edge on the ground. SDSU also forced three UH turnovers, while committing one, and held an almost 13-minute time of possession advantage (36:07-23:53). San Diego State took its opening drive 86 yards on 10 plays, culminating with a 10-yard rushing touchdown by Pumphrey. The Aztecs showed its game plan early as 83 of the 86 yards were on the ground on the opening drive, which lasted 5:16, highlighted by a 34-yard run by Marcus Stamps. After forcing a 3 and out, SDSU put together another 10-play drive, this time ending in a 36-yard field goal by Donny Hageman. It was Hageman’s eighth straight field goal make. San Diego State would take a 10-0 lead into the second quarter as it had 100 more yards (128-28) than Hawai‘i after the break. The Rainbow Warriors caught a break early in the second quarter when Scott Harding’s rugby punt was misplayed by the Aztecs and recovered by Quinto Pedroza. The SDSU defense, however, held UH to a field goal attempt, which was missed by Tyler Hadden from 39 yards out. It appeared San Diego State would go into halftime with a 10-0 lead, but a Hail Mary by Hawai‘i's Ikaika Woolsey was caught by Marcus Kemp in the end zone with just five seconds left on a 3rd and 15, bringing the visitors to within three at 10-7 after two quarters. The Aztecs tacked on another score in the third quarter as they marched 92 yards on nine plays over 4:56 before Kaehler connected on a 26-yard touchdown strike to Lloyd Mills. On the scoring drive, SDSU’s second longest of the season in terms of yards, Kaehler was 4-for-4 for 71 yards, connecting three times with Mills (39 yards) and once to Larry Clark (32 yards).

RENO, Nev. - Don Jackson ran for a career-high 124 yards and a touchdown, James Butler added 103 yards and a score and Nevada forced three turnovers to help the Wolf Pack down San Diego State, 3014, at Mackay Stadium. The win moved Nevada into a tie with the Aztecs atop the conference’s West Division at 6-3. SDSU led, 14-10, at halftime, but the Wolf Pack outscored San Diego State, 20-0, after the break to pick up its third consecutive comeback win. Nevada scored 29 straight to beat Brigham Young, 42-35, in Provo, Utah, on Oct. 18, and rattled off 26 unanswered points in a 26-18 win at Hawai‘i on Oct. 25. San Diego State struck first, using a 7-play, 55-yard drive over 3:45, ending with a 1-yard touchdown rush by Chase Price. Nevada got into good field position, taking a kickoff 55 yards back to the SDSU 39-yard line. The San Diego State defense, however, held the Wolf Pack to a field goal, the first of three by Brent Zuzo. On the visitor team’s first drive of the second quarter, Kaehler was picked off by Nevada’s J. McNeal on 3rd and 10 and returned it back to set up the Wolf Pack once again deep inside Aztec territory. After a no-gain, Fajardo found Richy Turner out on the slot, who ran it 20 yards into the end zone to put Nevada up, 10-7. After two more punts by each team, SDSU tried to put together one last drive to close the half. The drive, which was 77 yards over seven plays and took just San Diego State 7 7 0 0 - 14 2:12, saw Kaehler go 4-for-6 for 67 yards, ending with Nevada 3 7 3 17 - 30 an acrobatic, juggling 21-yard catch by Jemond Hazely.

SAN DIEGO - Quinn Kaehler tied a career high with three touchdown passes as San Diego State pulled away to a 35-21 victory over Idaho at Qualcomm Stadium. Donnel Pumphrey rushed 142 yards on the ground and a touchdown, while Chase Price had a 5-yard touchdown run. Eric Judge (4 receptions, 107 yards, 1 touchdown) and Ezell Ruffin (4 receptions, 86 yards, 2 touchdowns) combined for eight catches, 193 receiving yards and three scores as Kaehler was an efficient 14for-22 for 249 yards and three touchdowns. With the score tied at 14-14 at halftime, Kaehler hit Judge on a 58-yard slant for the go-ahead touchdown, then Price scored on a 5-yard run on the Aztecs’ ensuing drive to take a 28-14 lead. The Vandals responded when Chad Chalich found a wide-open Joshua McCain for a 51-yard score and bring the Vandals to within seven at 28-21. After forcing SDSU to a 3 and out, it appeared Idaho would take the lead on its next drive after it got the ball all the way to the San Diego State 7. On a 3rd and 2, however, the Aztecs’ Alex Barrett knocked the ball out of running back Jerrel Brown’s hands and Josh Gavert pounced on it to give SDSU the ball back. San Diego State took advantage, utilizing an 11-play, 86-yard drive over 5:24, culminating with a 28yard strike from Kaehler to Ruffin. The Vandals drove into Aztecs’ territory, but were unable to convert a 3rd and 2 after Gavert sacked Matt Linehan for a 7-yard loss.

SAN DIEGO - San Diego State limited Air Force to just 140 rushing yards and forced four turnovers in a 30-14 victory over Air Force at Qualcomm Stadium. The win made the Aztecs bowl eligible for the fifth consecutive season. Donnel Pumphrey ran for 131 yards and a touchdown, while Ezell Ruffin caught seven balls for a season-high 126 yards. In addition, Quinn Kaehler recorded his second 300-yard passing game of the season and third of his career with 326 yards and a touchdown. For the game, SDSU outgained the Falcons, 502-329, and dominated the time of possession by almost 12 minutes (35:57-24:03). AFA, which came into the game ranked seventh in the country in rushing yards per game (288.40), managed only 140 against a stout San Diego State defense, which had three fumble recoveries and an interception returned for a touchdown by Calvin Munson. The 140 yards on the ground by Air Force were its 12th fewest in a game since 1996 and the sixth fewest in a league game since 1996. The Aztecs also held the Falcons to 329 total yards, more than 100 below their season average of 437.6 coming into the game.

Dec. 23, 2014 l Qualcomm Stadium l San Diego, Calif. l ESPN SAN DIEGO - San Diego State’s school-record fifth consecutive appearance in a bowl game ended in bitter disappointment as a 34-yard Aztec field goal sailed wide with 20 seconds to play, enabling Navy to claim a 17-16 victory in the 2014 San Diego Country Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl at Qualcomm Stadium. The loss, San Diego State’s first in seven games at The Q in 2014, came despite the Aztecs enjoying advantages in many statistical categories, including first downs (18-14), total offense (327-271) and turnovers (3-4). SDSU’s Achilles’ heel came on third-and-fourth-down conversions. The Midshipmen were 7-of-15 on third down and 3-for-3 on fourth-down conversions, while the Aztecs were 2-for-12 and 0-1 in the same category. The teams combined for three first-quarter scores, with Navy taking the early lead. On its first possession, the Midshipmen converted an interception into a 10-play, 42-yard drive into a touchdown. On the drive, Navy converted two third downs and a fourth down. The Aztecs scored points on their next two possessions. Rashaad Penny returned the ensuing kickoff 57 yards to the Navy 39-yard line. Five plays later, Donnel Pumphrey scored from five yards out to tie the game. Following a Navy fumble, SDSU once again capitalized on a short field. The Aztecs were unable to get to the end zone, but Donald Hageman converted his first of three field goals to give the Aztecs a 107 lead. San Diego State stretched the lead to 13-7 in the second quarter when a 10-play, 68-yard drive led to Hageman’s second field goal of the evening, a 37-yard boot. The Aztec defense was sensational on the evening, limiting Navy to a season-low 271 yards of total offense, including a season-low 17 passing yards. SDSU also forced four turnovers and recorded eight tackles for loss. In 11 drives (not counting the final kneel down), the Aztecs limited Navy to nine yards or less six times, including five drives in a row during the Navy 7 0 7 3 - 17 second half. San Diego State 10 3 3 0 - 16 One of the rare occasions Navy was able to mount a sustained drive was following the second-half Navy - Reynolds 1-yd run (Grebe kick kickoff.

All-Time Coaches
FIVE STRAIGHT BOWL GAME APPEARANCES
BRIAN BILLICK Years at SDSU: 1981-85 Following a four-year assistant coaching stint at SDSU (1981-85) and successful tenures at Utah State (1986-88) and Stanford (1989-91), Brian Billick moved on to the pro ranks. He became an assistant coach with Minnesota Vikings in 1992 and was promoted to offensive coordinator three games into the 1993 season, a position he held for the duration of his seven-year stay. Billick directed a Vikings’ attack that set a variety of NFL and team records during an NFL-best 15-1 1998 season. Billick became the Baltimore Ravens head coach in 1999 and quickly changed the course of a team which went 16-31-1 in its previous three years, producing an 8-8 mark in his first season. The Ravens followed that up with a 12-4 regular season mark in 2000 and a sweep through the playoffs to the Super Bowl XXXV championship. Billick finished his tenure with the Ravens in 2007 with a 80-64 record in nine seasons.
JOE GIBBS Years at SDSU: 1964-66 Joe Gibbs, one of the most successful coaches in the history of the NFL, got his coaching start at his alma mater, San Diego State, in 1964. He joined the Aztecs’ staff as a graduate assistant and coached the offensive line during a period when the team won 27 of 31 games, including an 11-0 mark in 1966. Following assistant coaching jobs at Florida State, Southern California, Arkansas and three NFL teams, Gibbs was named the head coach of the Washington Redskins, where he created a dynasty. He led the Redskins to four Super Bowls - winning three titles - and accumulated a 124-60 record during regularseason play and an amazing 16-5 post-season record (.789 win percentage) in 12 seasons. In 1993, he left Washington and the NFL at the pinnacle of his career and established Joe Gibbs Racing, assembling a NASCAR team that would go on to find success similar to what he achieved in the NFL. Gibbs came back to coach the Redskins from 2004-08, 11 seasons after originally retiring to spend more time with his family and his racing team. His final head coaching record stands at 154-94, including a 17-7 mark in the playoffs, and a career .621 winning percentage. Gibbs was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1996.
JOHN MADDEN Years at SDSU: 1964-66 John Madden came to The Mesa as a defensive coordinator in 1964 after coaching Hancock Junior College (Calif.) beginning in 1960. In 1967, he was hired by the Oakland Raiders. Two years later, Madden, at 33 years old, became the youngest head coach in the old American Football League. Madden, who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, led the Raiders to a 10-year overall record of 103-32-7 - the best winning percentage in NFL history. During his tenure, the Raiders won seven division titles, including a Super Bowl XI victory in 1976. He retired after the 1979 season to become a television analyst. Madden’s move to the broadcast booth has been even more historic, as demonstrated by his 16 Emmy nominations. He began work as an NFL analyst for NBC in 2006 until announcing his retirement in 2009.

1948 Harbor Bowl HARDIN-SIMMONS 53, SAN DIEGO STATE 0 Jan. 1, 1948 u Balboa Stadium u Att: 12,000
SAN DIEGO -- Hardin-Simmons blanked San Diego State, 53-0, before 12,000 in the 1948 Harbor Bowl at Balboa Stadium. The loss snapped the Aztecs’ five-game unbeaten streak, as the Cowboys controlled the ball for the majority of the game, outgaining SDSU, 470-66, on the ground. San Diego State still finished its bowl season with a 7-3-1 record and the Aztecs’ seven wins tied the 1937 and 1924 teams for most in school history.

1952 Pineapple Bowl SAN DIEGO STATE 34, HAWAI’I 13 Jan. 1, 1952 u Honolulu Stadium
HONOLULU -- Despite the heat and humidity that slowed down a potent San Diego State offense in the first half of the 1952 Pineapple Bowl, the Aztecs pulled away in the second half to take a 34-13 victory over Hawai'i. After a 14-6 SDSU lead at the half, the Aztecs took advantage of cooler temperatures in the second half with three quick touchdowns by Art Preston, Preston Robinson and Don Jurk. It would be all the offense they would need as the SDSU defense stopped UH’s running back Jimmy Asato and their dangerous single-wing attack. Most of the Aztecs suffered from a bout of food poisoning following the game, but recovered in time for the flight back to the mainland.

NEW ORLEANS -- Making back-to-back bowl game appearances for the first time in its 43-year Division I history, San Diego State dropped a heartbreaking 32-30 decision to Louisiana at the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. The Aztecs rallied from a 16-point third-quarter deficit to take the lead at 30-29 with just 35 seconds remaining in the game. That was enough time, however, for the Ragin’ Cajuns’ offense which completed two quick pass plays for a combined 39 yards to get into Aztec territory. Louisiana would move up 10 more yards, including five on a controversial penalty, to set up Brett Baer’s game-winning 50-yard field goal as time expired. San Diego State trailed nearly the entire game, opening scoring in the first quarter with a 27-yard field goal, but then allowing 19 unanswered points, including seven following an 87-yard punt return. Trailing 19-3, the Aztecs got back-to-back touchdowns on identical 16-yard pass plays from quarterback Ryan

AZTEC FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Dec. 21, 2013 u Bronco Stadium u Att: 21,951 BOISE, Idaho -- Adam Muema rushed for 229 yards and three touchdowns en route to earning the game’s most valuable player award and helping San Diego State defeat Buffalo, 49-24, in the 2013 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. It was SDSU’s first bowl win outside of its own stadium since the 1969 Pasadena Bowl. The Aztecs, who never trailed in the contest, capitalized on three crucial Bulls turnovers, scoring 28 unanswered points during the second and third quarters to put the game out of reach. SDSU rode the legs of quarterback Quinn Kaehler on its initial scoring drive as he tip-toed 29 yards down the right sideline on a bootleg to provide the Scarlet and Black a 7-0 advantage with 21 seconds left in the opening quarter. After forcing a turnover, Muema tallied the first of his three scores on a 3-yard sweep to increase the SDSU lead to 14-0. The Bulls, who were held without a first down until the 10:42 mark of the second period, managed to narrow the gap to 14-10 on a 10-yard toss from Licata to Brandon Oliver and a 38-yard field goal by Patrick Clarke. However, the Aztecs quickly countered with a 5 play, 67-yard march, capped by Muema’s 8-yard TD scamper around left end, while Kaehler hit Dylan Denso with a 25-yard scoring strike on the first play following Marcus Andrews’ interception return from midfield, giving SDSU a 28-10 bulge at intermission. Denso also made a key contribution on special teams, recovering a Buffalo fumble on the opening kickoff of the second half to put the Aztecs in business at the Bulls 26. Moments later, Kaehler connected with Adam Roberts from 11 yards out on a post pattern for his second TD pass of the day. After forcing a three-and-out, Chad Young’s 1-yard touchdown plunge increased the Aztec lead to 42-10 with 8:18 left in the third quarter. Buffalo ended its offensive drought early in the fourth quarter, driving 73 yards in seven plays, culminating in a 23-yard touchdown reception by Alex Neutz. However, the score proved too little too late as Muema wrapped up his dazzling afternoon with a 30-yard burst into the end zone with 6:40 left in the contest

SAN DIEGO -- Donny Hageman missed a 34-yard field goal with 20 seconds left as Navy held on for a narrow 17-16 triumph over San Diego State in the 2014 Poinsettia Bowl. After the Midshipmen scored the go-ahead points on a 30-yard field goal by Austin Grebe with 1:27 remaining, the Aztecs mounted one last charge, marching 63 yards to the Navy 17. Quinn Kaehler completed 4 of 6 passes on the drive, connecting with Eric Judge on a 32-yard gain followed by a 16-yarder to Donnel Pumphrey to put SDSU in striking position. However, Hageman’s game-winning attempt was wide right, snapping the Aztecs’ eight-game home victory streak. Pumphrey ran for 112 yards and one touchdown to establish an SDSU single-season rushing record with 1,867 yards, eclipsing George Jones’ standard of 1,852 yards set in 1995. Navy drew first blood on a 1-yard plunge by quarterback Keenan Reynolds before the Aztecs reeled off 13 straight points on a 5-yard burst by Pumphrey and Hageman field goals of 43 and 37 yards. The Midshipmen scored on their first possession of the second half, driving 92 yards on 13 plays, capped by Reynolds’ second touchdown of the evening. After forcing a punt, Navy got the ball back. But on 3rd and10, Devante Davis recovered a fumble by Midshipmen slot back DeBrandon Sanders, putting SDSU in business at the Navy 18. Four plays later, Hageman split the uprights from 30 yards out, giving the Aztecs a 16-14 advantage. SDSU had a chance to extend its lead in the fourth quarter after reaching the Navy 12. However, Kaehler’s fourth-down pass to Mikah Holder fell incomplete. Kaehler completed just 11 of 27 passes for 141 yards with two interceptions, including one on the’ Aztecs’ opening drive, which led to Navy’s first touchdown. Score by Quarter Navy San Diego State

Aztec History Aztec civilization dates back to at least the 12th century A.D. The precise location is still debated by scholars, but tradition tells us of a place somewhere north of modern-day Mexico City known at that time as Aztlan, which meant "the place of the cranes" or "the place of the herons." The people who lived in this land were called Azteca meaning "those of Aztlan."
2015 SAN DIEGO STATE FOOTBALL
AZTEC FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
From the early decades of its history, San Diego State has identified itself with the Aztecs, one of the most sophisticated and distinctive societies in the history of the Western Hemisphere. A fitting choice for a university committed to internationalism and diversity, the Aztec identity evokes great pride in Mexico, as well as among many people in the United States, and certainly within the SDSU community. Consequently, San Diego State strives to honor the Aztec people by enhancing awareness, understanding and appreciation of Aztec culture and achievements.
The Azteca eventually left their homeland and became known as the Mexica. Native folklore attributes this name change to the instructions of the people's patron deity, Huitzilopochtli (Hummingbird on the Left). Around 1325, the Mexica settled on an island in Lake Texcoco, an area that is now the heart of Mexico City, and named it Tenochtitlan or "the place of the fruit of the cactus." A century later, the Mexica and two other Nahuatl-speaking city-states, Texcoco and Tlacopan, combined to create an entity popularly known as the Aztec Empire. Boasting a strong military force, this new alliance commanded a sphere of influence that stretched across much of present-day Mexico. Tenochtitlan and its surrounding valley evolved into a highly sophisticated, multicultural and multilingual city-state of several million inhabitants. At this same time, major European cities numbered only 30,000 to 40,000 in population. A cradle of innovation, the Aztec Empire developed advanced systems of trade, science, politics, religion, education and agriculture. The Aztecs also enjoyed sports and built grand ballcourts to accommodate team events.

u
San Diego State University first adopted the Aztec name in the 1920s as a nickname for the college's sports teams. In 1925, the student newspaper followed suit, changing its name from The Paper Lantern to The Aztec. Since that time, San Diego State's celebration of Aztec heritage has permeated the campus. In 1936, a Donald Hord sculpture of Montezuma II, the last Aztec emperor, became a welcoming campus icon. With the passing years, Aztec themes echoed in the names, colors and architectural elements of new campus buildings. And Aztec culture became the subject of more than a dozen university courses. In 1941, Monty Montezuma, a character based on Montezuma II, debuted at San Diego State athletic events as a symbolic personification of the Aztecs. Over time, the Montezuma character's look and activities have evolved from a sports mascot into a more dignified and accurate representation of the historical emperor. Montezuma now serves as the university's ambassador of Aztec culture, charged with the responsibility of informing and educating the San Diego community about Aztec civilization. SDSU continues to take pride in its affiliation with Aztec culture and to celebrate the Aztec virtues of strength, valor and intellectual achievement.

ment to fiscal stability. Despite state cutbacks, he has ended each of his first four years at SDSU in the black, and athletic department fundraising is at an all-time high. His impact has also been felt throughout the department as he has hired or extended the contracts of 16 current head coaches at San Diego State. The current collection of Aztec head coaches have combined to earn 40 conference coach-of-the-year honors. Sterk’s vision of a program that competes with the nation’s best on the field, and one that takes a back seat to no one in the classroom, is well on its way to becoming a reality. This past April, a school-record 335 individuals were honored as scholar student-athletes at the traditional year-end banquet, bettering the mark set in Sterk’s fourth year on The Mesa. In addition, San Diego State set a school-record with an institutional-high 12 programs setting multiyear highs in the Academic Progress Report (APR) released by the NCAA in May 2015. Among those programs that scored record multi-year APR figures were football, men's basketball and baseball. Sterk came to SDSU from Washington State University, where he served as athletic director since 2000. Prior to his hiring at WSU, he was the AD at Portland State University from 1995 to 2000. Sterk also has a solid reputation and the respect of his peers across the country. The NCAA recognized him in 2006 as the Division IA Athletic Directors' "Program of Excellence." He oversaw a period of unparalleled success at Washington State with historic accomplishments both on and off the field. In his last three years at WSU, 13 Cougar teams competed in NCAA postseason tournaments, including back-to-back trips by the men’s basketball team (2007 and 2008), while women’s rowing earned five NCAA championship bids, including a fourth-place finish in 2006, the highest finish ever by a WSU women’s team in NCAA competition. Sterk graduated from Western Washington University in 1980, where he earned four letters in football and one in basketball. He was credited with a school-record 164 tackles during the 1977 season, garnering first-team NAIA District I all-star accolades. He was named team captain and MVP, helping the Vikings to the district championship game. On Feb. 6, 2010, Sterk was inducted into Western Washington's Athletics Hall of Fame for his success in football. Sterk received his master's degree in sports administration from Ohio University. In addition to SDSU, Washington State and Portland State, his professional career has also included positions at North Carolina, Maine, Seattle Pacific and Tulane. Sterk and his wife Debra have three daughters: Ashley (26), Amy (23), and Abby (20).

Below is a list of San Diego State teams that have advanced to postseason play and their NCAA finish the last five seasons under Jim Sterk.
im Sterk enters his sixth season as the University’s Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, having already left an indelible mark on San Diego State. He has overseen the most successful five seasons in San Diego State athletic history. In terms of on-the-field accomplishments, the Aztecs have won 32 conference team championships since the beginning of the 2011-12 academic year, and in the classroom, there have been a recordnumber of scholar-athletes on The Mesa. In addition, Sterk oversaw SDSU’s fundraising campaign this past season which once again eclipsed the previous record. In terms of competitive success, San Diego State continues to set itself apart, compiling the fourth-highest combined winning percentage in the country in football and men’s basketball since the beginning of the 2010-11 season at 75.2 percent (182-60). In addition, SDSU is one of four schools nationally to have appeared in six consecutive NCAA tournaments and have its football team play in five straight bowl games. The overall success of the program can be traced to the 2011-12 academic year when nine athletic teams advanced to postseason play and scored postseason points in NCAA competition. Two of those programs - men’s golf and women’s outdoor track & field - finished among the nation’s top 10. Since then, a school-record 11 teams accumulated postseason points for SDSU in 201213, followed by 10 in 2013-14 and nine teams this past season. For the first time in school history, San Diego State had four teams finish among the top 20 nationally at NCAA championships (men’s golf, men’s basketball, softball and men’s tennis). San Diego State has also become the dominant program in its conference, claiming 27 league titles since the beginning of the 2012-13 campaign. This past season alone, SDSU’s athletic teams combined to win eight team league championships. In his tenure, Sterk has watched 17 San Diego State sports finish in the top 25 at NCAA championships, including five squads that finished in the top 10 of their NCAA tournament. Since arriving at San Diego State in February 2010, Sterk, 59, has led the Aztec athletic depart-

Three MW student-athletes have earned distinction as Rhodes Scholars (Jessica Mellinger, Wyoming and Delavane Diaz and Brittany Morreale, Air Force). Conference student-athletes are also given a voice regarding pertinent issues within the MW and NCAA governance structure through representation on the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC). The Mountain West SAAC consists of 23 representatives; two student-athletes from each full member institution and one faculty athletics representative. The committee reviews and reacts to legislation and to other topics referred by the Conference constituent groups or committees related to the student-athlete experience.
Achievement The MW has produced 882 All-America selections among its 18 sponsored sports (men’s swimming was discontinued as a Conference sport following the 2010-11 season) in the last 16 years, including a league-record 83 All-America honorees in 2010-11. A total of 156 MW student-athletes have also earned Academic All-America accolades in that span. The Mountain West has sent at least 25 teams to NCAA postseason events in each of the past 16 years, capturing three team national championships in women’s cross country and producing 36 individual national champions in the sports of men’s golf, men’s cross country, and men’s and women’s indoor track & field and outdoor track & field.

San Diego State, UNLV, Utah and Wyoming — decided to form a new NCAA Division I-A intercollegiate athletic conference. The split from a former 16-team conference re-established continuity and stability among the membership within the new league and signaled the continuation of its tradition-rich, long-standing athletic rivalries. Three of the MW’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (New Mexico, Wyoming and Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well. UNLV and TCU entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MW in 1999. TCU rejoined the group with its first year of competition in the Mountain West in 2005-06. With conference realignment sweeping the nation in recent years, the MW has been proactive in addressing membership changes. Boise State University joined the Mountain West in 2011-12, followed by Fresno State and the University of Nevada on July 1, 2012. Also on July 1, 2012, the University of Hawai‘i became a football-only member of the Conference. On July 1, 2013, the Mountain West further expanded when San José State University and Utah State University joined the Conference, bringing to 11 the number of full-time member institutions and 12 football-playing members. On July 1, 2014, the Colorado College women’s soccer program became the first non-football affiliate member of the Mountain West, expanding that sport to 12 Conference participants. When the Mountain West officially began operations on July 1, 1999, the new league had in place a seven-year contract with ESPN, giving the broadcaster exclusive national television rights to MW football and men’s basketball, and three-year agreements to send the league’s football champion to the Liberty Bowl and a second team to the Las Vegas Bowl. Commissioner Craig Thompson also arranged a third bowl tiein each of the first three seasons (1999 Motor City, 2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans) before securing a four-year deal with the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco in 2002. Entering the 2013 season, the MW has six contracted bowl affiliations – the Las Vegas Bowl, San Diego Country Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl, Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl, Sheraton Hawai‘i Bowl, Famous Idaho Potato Bowl and Gildan New Mexico Bowl. An innovator in the postseason bowl structure, the MW engineered many “firsts,” as league teams have participated in five inaugural bowl games (2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans, 2002 San Francisco (Emerald), 2005 Poinsettia, 2006 New Mexico), as well as placing the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS team into a BCS bowl game with Utah’s appearance in the 2005 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.

From its inception in 1999, the Mountain West has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Progressive in its approach, the MW continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. Now in its 17th year, the MW has been assertive in its involvement with the NCAA governance structure and has taken a leadership role in the overall administration of intercollegiate athletics. The Mountain West has marked several achievements over its first 16 years of existence, most notably becoming the first to establish a sports television network dedicated solely to an intercollegiate athletic conference (The Mtn.). The Mountain West also was the first to experiment with the coaches’ challenge in the college football instant replay system, and was the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS conference to participate in four BCS bowl games, winning three. Additionally, the Mountain West was the first conference to have a member institution with No. 1 overall picks in both the NFL and NBA drafts in the same year (Utah’s Alex Smith and Andrew Bogut, respectively in 2005). With UNLV’s Anthony Bennett claiming the No. 1 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the Mountain West is one of three conferences to have multiple No. 1 NBA draft selections since 2000. Also, with San Diego State’s Stephen Strasburg earning the No. 1 pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the Mountain West is one of two conferences to have the No. 1 selection in each of the NFL, NBA and MLB drafts since the MW was founded in 1999. In 2011-12, the Mountain West was among the first conferences to implement a league-wide state-of-theart basketball instant replay system. The Mountain West is noted for its geographic diversity. Some of the most beautiful terrain and landscapes in the nation can be found within Mountain West boundaries, including the majestic Rocky Mountain range, which borders five MW institutions (Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico and Utah State). The high plains of Wyoming (elevation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert cities of Las Vegas and Reno, home to UNLV and Nevada, respectively, while Fresno State, San Diego State and San José State add a West Coast influence with their locations in Central, Southern and Northern California. The inclusion of the Hawai‘i football program extends the Mountain West footprint to the beautiful islands in the Pacific Ocean.

FIVE STRAIGHT BOWL GAME APPEARANCES
n September 15, 1967, the San Diego State University football team first stepped onto the turf of what Sports Illustrated would later call the finest multi-purpose stadium in America - San Diego Stadium. That night, the Aztecs, led by head coach Don Coryell and players like Haven Moses, Fred Dryer, Tom Nettles and Nate Wright, defeated Tennessee State 16-8 in front of 45,822 fans. In an effort to prepare the stadium for the next century, a $66.4 million renovation project was undertaken in 1997, which increased seating to 71,400, added 31 luxury suites; created 7,600 club seats, and added a second Sony Jumbotron video board in the West end zone. To help in financing of the renovation project, Qualcomm, a local communications company, agreed to provide $18 million for the naming rights of the Stadium for the next 20 years. The Stadium is now known as Qualcomm Stadium. Qualcomm Stadium is located at the intersection of Interstates 8 and 15 in Mission Valley, less than five miles from the university. Indeed, San Diego State is one of the facility's two charter tenants, the other being the San Diego Chargers of the National Football League. In the 4 years since that opening night, some of the greatest names in Aztec football history have displayed their talents there - Dennis Shaw, Brian Sipe, Isaac Curtis, Willie Buchanon, Todd Santos, Webster Slaughter, Rob Awalt, Don Warren, Dan McGwire, Henry Allison, Claudie Minor, Jesse Freitas, Craig Penrose, David "Deacon" Turner, Darnay Scott, Kirk Morrison and Marshall Faulk to name a few. In addition to the Aztecs and Chargers, the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsetta Bowl and the Holiday Bowl have come to call it home. The Stadium has been the site of such renowned events as the Super Bowl, the World Series and baseball's All-Star Game. Constructed at a cost of $27 million, San Diego Stadium opened August 20, 1967, with an exhibition game between the Chargers and Detroit Lions. Since that game, the facility has been the stage for some of the most memorable events in San Diego State football history. A then-record attendance of 53,611 was on hand November 8, 1975, when the unbeaten Aztecs were involved in one of the most dramatic games ever played in San Diego, but the Arizona Wildcats prevailed, 31-24. In 1975, average attendance for six home games was 42,040. In '77, a crowd of 50,453 saw the Aztecs hammer 15th-ranked Florida State, 41-16. On January 6, 1981, the name of the facility was changed officially to San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium. Murphy, a nationally-known columnist and the sports editor of the San Diego Union-Tribune, had led the campaign to have the stadium constructed. He had died in 1980. In 1984, 49,220 fans nearly carried SDSU to an upset of UCLA, as the Bruins hung on to an 18-15 victory. The Aztecs clinched their first Western Athletic Conference championship and a berth in the Holiday Bowl with a 10-3 victory over Brigham Young on November 29, 1986, in front of a Stadium crowd of 45,062. SDSU then played host to Iowa in one of the most memorable Holiday Bowls ever. The hometown Aztecs fought the perennial Big Ten power to a standstill before losing 39-38 on a last second Hawkeye field goal. A crowd of 59,473 witnessed that game on December 30, 1986, which was the largest crowd ever to see SDSU in San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium. State's large and vocal crowds have had much to cheer about through the years. As they await the 2010 season, the Aztecs' all time record in Mission Valley is 170-92-6 (.634). The stadium underwent a major facelift in 1985. Built initially to seat 52,675 for football, the expansion project pushed

capacity to 60,409, and current capacity is 70,561. Largely as a result, the National Football League voted to hold the 1988 Super Bowl game in San Diego where the Washington Redskins defeated the Denver Broncos, 42-10. That national spectacle returned in 1998 to witness the Denver Broncos defeat the Green Bay Packers, 31-24. The most recent Super Bowl hosted by the Q was 2003, when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers routed the Oakland Raiders, 48-21. Prior to the stadium's opening, the Aztecs played their games in Aztec Bowl - a 13,000-seat facility on campus - and the 34,500-seat Balboa Stadium downtown. The team's record crowd had been the 35,342 fans who jammed Balboa Stadium to see the Aztecs meet North Dakota State in 1966. North Dakota State was the No. 1 small college team in the nation at the time, but the Aztecs won the game 36-0. The victory served as a springboard for San Diego State's national small college championships in 1966, 1967 and 1969 and a move to Division I-A at the end of the 1968 season. San Diego State moved to what is now Qualcomm Stadium. From 1936-66, the Aztecs played most of their home games in Aztec Bowl on campus, where they had a record of 77-44-5 (.636). From 1921-35, the team's home field alternated between Balboa Stadium (38-42-4) and Lane Field (12-12-4) with an occasional game played on the old Normal School campus at College Field (9-3-1). Two games were also played at Aztec Field, the old track and field stadium which was located north of the Aztec Center. Since 1973, nearly 75 percent of all Aztec football games have been played at night. The Aztecs played their first and San Diego's first night football game on Sept. 25, 1930, at Lane Field against the San Diego Marine JVs.
Naming of the Stadium The original name of the stadium was San Diego Stadium. When Jack Murphy died on September 24, 1980, then Mayor Pete Wilson and the City Council voted to rename it San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium. The voters officially approved the name change later that year. After the 1997 renovation, the name changed again.
2015 SAN DIEGO STATE FOOTBALL
Qualcomm, a local telecommunication company, agreed to pay the City $18 million to complete the expansion project. In return the name changed to Qualcomm Stadium. The current naming rights deal expires in 2017.
