On an evening when an announced crowd of 23,374 came to see how the Aztecs would match up against Boise State, most were pleasantly surprised that the Aztecs discovered some offense. The Aztecs accounted for 439 yards, 31 points, and 273 yards passing. Quite a few things were going nicely for the Aztecs when they had the ball. Quarterback Jalen Mayden was Superman, throwing for 241 yards on 16/22 passing and 85 yards rushing on 16 carries. The problem was the football was his kryptonite as he fumbled twice, one lost into the endzone negating a score and the other leading to a Boise State score.
