<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; While the Aztecs (6-3, 3-2) were 18-15 winners last weekend in a sloppy game played in cold, windy conditions at Colorado State, they ended up on the losing side of the all important injury battle. Already reeling from the losses of stellar linebacker Logan Ketchum and outstanding guard Nik Embernate the previous weekend, the list of the walking wounded grew considerably as a result of the battle against the CSU Rams.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Last weekend Aztec running back Ronnie Hillman had another career night at the “Q”. The sensational sophomore confounded the Wyoming Cowboys (5-2, 2-0) for a combined 309 yards and three touchdowns. It wasn’t enough however, as the Aztecs fell to the Cowboys 30-27 in what was thus far the most frustrating loss of the season. The loss dropped SDSU’s record to (4-3, 1-2) and seriously impaired their chances of gaining a second consecutive postseason bowl bid. Favored by two touchdowns, the loss should have never happened.</p>
