In 1:40 the San Diego State men’s basketball team went from recording their 15th conference win and avenging their lone home loss last season, to suffering a critical dent in their resume for the NCAA tournament.
In that same span the Aztecs have done something they haven’t done in 164-straight games: they lost their focus and lost when leading with five minutes left in the match.
As in any loss, this boiled down to miscues and for the Aztecs it was six missed free throws in the final minute that allowed the Boise State University to overcome a nine-point deficit and win, 66-63.
