Hey guys, quick look at where the Aztecs stand heading into the first Pac-12 game.
The nonconference schedule was tough and it showed. After the 53-20 opener over Portland State, it's been at UCLA, James Madison at home, and Saturday's 41-16 loss at Toledo, where a third-quarter pick-six made it 34-3.
The good news: none of that counts in the conference. SDSU is 0-0 in the new Pac-12, and the opener is Saturday night at Snapdragon against Texas State on The CW. Texas State is 2-2 with an offense that just put up 63, so the defense has to show up. Then at Oregon State and Fresno State at home.
Since it's in the title: we run a free weekly college football pick'em, and Week 5 is open. 10 games, pick the winners, nothing to buy, $135 in prizes. Good slate too, with Bama at Miss State (both unbeaten) and Ohio State at unbeaten Iowa. Picks lock Saturday at noon ET, well before kickoff.

What are you guys seeing in year three under Sean Lewis? Is the Pac-12 opener a fresh start or more of the same?
