San Diego State’s defense could best be described as remarkable since 2019. Last season, the Aztecs produced a defense that ranked top four in the nation, and became known for allowing the fewest points in all of college football.
In some instances, the Aztecs’ defense has literally kept them in the game. This season is no exception to the aggressive 3-3-5 defense that wreaks havoc on the field.
In the two games the Aztecs have played this season, the defense has only allowed one touchdown per contest: 6 points from UNLV in the season-opener, and 7 points from Utah State this past weekend.
