SAN DIEGO — Saturday was a guide in how to sabotage your own team.
Statistically, Toledo was better than San Diego State, and it wasn’t even close.
But the box score doesn’t tell the whole story.
The Rockets had four turnovers, including two in San Diego State territory. They missed a field goal. The offensive line was iffy. And the defense crumbled in the final minutes.
It added up to a brutal 17-14 loss to the Aztecs at Snapdragon Stadium.
Toledo outgained San Diego State 376 yards to 282. The Rockets had 24 first downs to SDSU’s 14.
