The San Diego State Aztecs tipped off the third regular season game of the season against Missouri State in Springfield, Missouri. The San Diego State Aztecs came out extremely flat and looked like they did against Syracuse on the USS Midway. I am going to apologize now for this short post game recap. I was a guest on Xtra Sports 1360 today talking about San Diego State Football and was unable to catch the game. I have provided my view on the first half of todays win and some press conference and game highlights (To come when posted by SDSU).

The Aztecs came out shooting poorly and were lucky to be leading the game 29- 20 at half time. The Aztecs got to shoot the 1-1 and bonus fouls early on tonight and had issues again shooting from the line. The Aztecs about 10 min into the game were shooting 0-5 until San Diego State Star Jamaal Franklin was able to knock down back to back free throws.

Star player for San Diego State Jamaal Franklin got him into technical foul trouble during the Aztecs run at the end of the first half. Franklin reached his hands to were his pockets would be and simulated taking a gun out of his holsters. He shot the guns and blew the smoke off his hands and placed his hands back at his side. Coach Steve Fisher was mad at Jamaal Franklin for making the celebratory move after knocking down a huge 3 . Coach sat Jamaal on the bench till the end of the first half. Jamaal Franklin led all Aztecs in scoring during the first half of the game with 15 points and 6 rebounds. Jamaal Franklin would end the game with 22 points and 12 rebounds giving him another double-double. San Diego State becomes just the third non-conference visitor to win at JQH Arena since the beginning of the 2009-10 season.
