As representatives of the Mountain West Conference, the San Diego State Aztecs will look to rely on standout tailback Ronnie Hillman to guide them to the Saturday victory. After an 8-4 campaign it would be the perfect conclusion to the NFL prospect’s sophomore season.

Though they came up short under the spotlight of their only ranked games this season – to Michigan in Week 4 and Boise State in Week 12 – the Aztecs will have momentum on their side against UL Lafayette.

Coming off consecutive losses to close the season, the Ragin’ Cajuns will look to use the December matchup to salvage a once-impressive campaign. A string of six straight victories added enthusiasm on campus earlier in the season before it was snapped in late October.

As the primetime matchup on the first bowl day of the year, the Aztecs and Ragin’ Cajuns will be a popular play on the college football odds board, with everyone from casual fans to seasoned oddsmakers tuning in across the country.

The odds makers have the San Diego State Aztecs as a -4.5 point favorite with an over/under of 59.
