RENO, Nev. (Interstat) — A surging San Diego State team riding a three-game winning streak will face a struggling Nevada squad seeking its first home victory when the Aztecs visit the Wolf Pack on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2025, at Mackay Stadium.

The Aztecs (4-1) are coming off a dominant 45-24 home win over Colorado State last Friday, where their offense exploded for 256 passing yards. Quarterback Jayden Denegal was highly efficient, completing 13 of 16 passes for 256 yards and two touchdowns. The win continued a strong rebound for San Diego State after its lone loss, a 36-13 defeat at Washington State on Sept. 6.

Conversely, Nevada (1-4) looks to bounce back from a narrow 20-17 road loss to Fresno State last Saturday. The Wolf Pack’s sole victory this season was a 20-17 win over Sacramento State on Sept. 6. Their offense has struggled, scoring more than 17 points only once this year.

Despite the stark contrast in records, the game is projected to be a high-scoring affair. Interstat’s game simulator projects a final score of Nevada 39, San Diego State 35. Oddsmakers have installed the Wolf Pack as a 7.5-point favorite at home, with an over/under set at 41.5 points.

The matchup presents a classic contrast between San Diego State’s momentum and Nevada’s desperation to turn its season around in front of a home crowd.
