Colorado State overcame a double-digit deficit to top San Diego State

It looked like the Aztecs were going to narrowly escape Moby Arena with a win, until Colorado State’s Emmanuel Omogbo sank an off-balance, hard-earned 3-pointer with four seconds left to give the Rams a 56-55 victory over San Diego State on Saturday night.

Omogbo - who finished with 11 points and 11 rebounds - sank the winning shot after San Diego State went up 55-53 with 23 seconds left.

The win places the Rams (20-9, 12-4) in a tie with Nevada for first place in the Mountain West Conference standings. he Aztecs (16-12, 8-8) now fall to sixth place.
