For the second week in a row, the San Diego State Aztecs were held scoreless in the opening half, losing their non-conference showdown with James Madison 26-13 on Saturday night at Snapdragon Stadium.Running back Javion Kinnard carried 33 times for 181 yards with a rushing touchdown for the Aztecs (1-2), while Jayden Denegal passed for 209 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. JMU (3-0) quarterback Camden Coleman threw for 246 yards with two touchdowns, while also rushing for one and tight end Cole Keller caught both the scoring strikes.

Through the first 30 minutes of San Diego State’s eventual 28-10 loss at UCLA on Saturday, the Aztecs were able to hold their own in a rock fight against a Bruins side coming off a 45-point performance up in Berkeley.In it until the untimely interception on Jayden Denegal’s floated screen pass to Javion Kinnard on a third-and-12 around the SDSU 20-yard-line, then subsequent UCLA scoring drive, the margins at which the Scarlet and Black tried to win on proved too thin.Here are three takeaways from the Aztecs first loss of 2026:

The energy surrounding the San Diego State Aztecs’ “First Saturday at Snapdragon Stadium” event was noticeably different to past public scrimmages.The lines to get into the event when the doors opened on Saturday, Aug. 15 were noticeably longer.  Fans walking in through the northwest gate were greeted by an honor guard of cheerleaders, clad in their scarlet uniforms and waiving white and black pom-poms in time as the black t-shirted Marching Aztecs played through all the stadium standards.“This is a special spot. We haven&#39;t lost here in over a year. It&#39;s a spot where we get limited opportunities, and anytime we get to come over here and share with the community, like we did tonight on the ‘First Saturday at Snapdragon’ it is really special,” head coach Sean Lewis said.
