Related Topics: Aztec

The Northern Illinois Huskies, who are still probably coming down from the high of beating Nebraska two weeks ago, will need to focus as they head to SoCal for a match up with the #19 team in the country, the San Diego State Aztecs.

These two teams met last year with the Aztecs claiming a 42-28 victory at Huskie Stadium. San Diego State hasn’t slowed down much, even after losing star running back Donnel Pumphrey to the NFL...but the Huskies are a much improved team from a year ago.

Daniel Santacaterina will get his thrid start of the season, and forth overall, in tomorrows contest as Ryan Graham is still hurting from a big hit he took in the game against Boston College.
