Aztecs Face No. 7 Michigan in Las Vegas Showdown
LAS VEGAS – The San Diego State Aztecs (2-1) are set to battle the No. 7 Michigan Wolverines (4-0) tonight at 7:30 p.m. PST at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas. The game will be broadcast on truTV and 760-AM radio. This marks only the second meeting between the two programs, with Michigan winning the previous contest in 2021.
SDSU is known for its success in neutral-court games, boasting a 16-11 record in such matchups during Coach Brian Dutcher’s tenure, placing them among the nation’s elite. However, the Aztecs are coming off a double-overtime loss to Troy in their first home “buy” game defeat since 2018. Magoon Gwath, returning from knee surgery, made an impressive debut with 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 blocks.
Michigan, led by Coach Dusty May, is experimenting with its lineup, trying to incorporate several transfers. SDSU fans will recognize Yaxel Lendeborg from UAB, and Elliot Cadeau played against SDSU in the First Four last year. Coach Dutcher emphasizes the need to limit Michigan’s transition game and secure rebounds. The Wolverines have struggled with turnovers this season, averaging 15 per game. Kenpom projects a 77-72 win for Michigan. The Aztecs will face Oregon in Las Vegas on Tuesday night.
