That's what makes this game so intriguing. You have an SDSU team that hasn't allowed anything from opposing offenses, albeit against three bad or at best very mediocre offensive teams, while at the same time playing extemely poorly on offense themselves. That's understandable against Utah, but not when talking about CS Northridge and CS Bakersfield. One thing that is interesting is that their opponents have put up a bunch of three point shots, so without having seen their games it makes me think SDSU's defense is designed to take away the inside and shoot from distance. I assume none of their three opponents so far tried to run or push anything in transistion. For sure Utah didn't.

Then for BYU you have a team that is scoring like crazy but also giving up a lot of points. SDSU will also try to slow the game way down, and those styles of games tend to lead to close games. It could be very interesting.
