San Diego State football defeats Fresno State 26-23 in a dramatic Pac-12 rivalry showdown! The Aztecs bounce back from an embarrassing loss to Oregon State, reclaim the Oil Can and keep their bowl eligibility hopes alive with a thrilling homecoming victory. After allowing 66 points against Oregon State, Sean Lewis and the San Diego State Aztecs faced serious questions about their defense, quarterback situation and direction of the program. But the Aztecs delivered when it mattered most. San Diego State held Fresno State to just 276 total yards and limited the Bulldogs to four third-down conversions on 13 attempts. Lucky Sutton powered the rushing attack with 110 yards on 18 carries, while Javion Kennard added 77 yards as the Aztecs finished with 204 rushing yards. Quarterback Jayden Denegal exited with an apparent lower-body injury, forcing Stone Saunders into action for his first appearance since returning from injury. Could Saunders become San Diego State's starting quarterback moving forward? We break down the quarterback controversy, the Aztecs' defensive turnaround and the dramatic finish that included a massive 60-yard game-winning field goal. Meanwhile, Fresno State suffered another frustrating rivalry defeat after previously falling to Boise State. Jayden Mandal finished with 141 passing yards, while the Bulldogs continued struggling to establish offensive consistency and defend opposing rushing attacks. A missed extra point also proved costly in a game that could have unfolded very differently. With Fresno State preparing for Oregon State following its bye week, Matt Entz faces significant questions about the Bulldogs' ability to compete with the Pac-12's top teams. Can San Diego State build on this victory and reach bowl eligibility? And is Fresno State heading in the wrong direction? #Pac12Football #SanDiegoState #FresnoState

Texas State football absolutely demolished Colorado State 66-27 in a stunning Pac-12 showdown, piling up 716 total yards and an incredible 503 rushing yards in one of the most dominant offensive performances of the season. The Bobcats scored 66 points through three quarters, delivered eight rushing touchdowns and completely overwhelmed a Colorado State defense that continues to struggle under Jim Mora. Brad Jackson led the charge with 213 passing yards, 181 rushing yards and four total touchdowns, while Torrance Burgess Jr. exploded for a career-high 224 rushing yards and four touchdowns. Jalen Jenkins added another 78 rushing yards and a touchdown as Texas State's offensive line dominated from start to finish. We break down how G.J. Kinne's offense responded after the disappointing loss to San Diego State and why the Bobcats could become a dangerous team in the Pac-12 race. At 3-3, Texas State suddenly has a realistic opportunity to reach bowl eligibility and potentially climb the conference standings. But what happened to Colorado State? The Rams have now lost four consecutive games, and their defense has surrendered 59, 56 and 66 points in its last three outings. Even after a defensive coordinator change, Colorado State couldn't slow down Texas State's rushing attack. We examine the defensive breakdowns, Que'Son Farrar's performance at quarterback and why getting Hauss Hejny healthy could be critical to Colorado State's chances of turning its season around. Plus, we look ahead to Washington State vs. Oregon State and Fresno State vs. San Diego State as another important Pac-12 weekend continues. For the second consecutive week, a Pac-12 team has scored 66 points against a conference opponent. Which defensive performance was worse: Colorado State against Texas State or San Diego State against Oregon State? #Pac12Football #TexasStateFootball #ColoradoStateFootball Photo Credit: Matt Bush-IMAGN

Washington State football is making a major quarterback change as Owen Eshelman takes over the starting job ahead of the Cougars' rivalry matchup against Oregon State. But can the redshirt freshman turn around one of the most disappointing offenses in college football? Kirby Moore has already made changes to Washington State's offensive play-calling responsibilities, and now he's turning to Eshelman after Caden Pinnock struggled through the first six games. Chad Kebba of UpWest Sports and the Palouse Playbook joins Locked On Pac-12 to discuss why this quarterback change could provide the spark Washington State desperately needs. We examine Eshelman's leadership, decision-making and potential to improve an offense that has struggled with consistency, third-down conversions and explosive plays. But the problems go beyond quarterback. Washington State is still searching for a reliable No. 1 receiver following Tony Freeman's injury, while Trey Lechner's return could provide a much-needed boost at tight end. Then we turn our attention to Saturday's matchup in Corvallis. Oregon State enters the game with momentum under first-year head coach JaMarcus Shephard, while Washington State hopes to turn its season around under Moore. Could former Oregon State head coach and current Washington State defensive coordinator Trent Bray provide a significant advantage against his former team? We also address the growing discussion surrounding Washington State general manager Brad Larrondo and whether criticism of the Cougars' roster construction and talent evaluation is justified. Finally, we discuss the future of Washington State football, why patience with Moore's rebuilding process matters and what Cougars fans should realistically expect moving forward. Can Owen Eshelman deliver a fresh start and help Washington State shock Oregon State? #WashingtonState #GoCougs #Pac12
