2016 SCHEDULE | PDF
The San Diego State football team will play six more games on national television, the Mountain West announced today. Coupled with Monday's release that the Aztecs will play three Friday TV contests in 2016, SDSU now has nine of its 12 games slated for national television.
San Diego State will play home games against California on Sept. 10 at 7:30 p.m. PT on CBS Sports Network, vs. UNLV on Oct. 8 at a time to be determined (generally announced 12 days out) on ESPN networks (ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU or ESPN3), against Hawai'i on Nov. 5 at 4 p.m. PT on CBS Sports Network and vs. Colorado State on Senior Day on Nov. 26 at 6 p.m. PT on CBS Sports Network. The Aztecs are also slated to play road contests at Nevada on Nov. 12 at 7:30 p.m. PT on CBS Sports Network and at Wyoming on Nov. 19 at 1:30 p.m. MT on CBS Sports Network.
Out of the nine televised games, SDSU will play seven times on CBS Sports Network, at least once on ESPN2 and once on ESPN Networks. The only three contests that have yet to be decided for San Diego State are all non-conference games, including the home opener against New Hampshire on Sept. 3, and road outings at Northern Illinois on Sept. 17 and South Alabama on Oct. 1.
Additional broadcasts by ROOT SPORTS, the Mountain West Network powered by Campus Insiders and Oceanic Time Warner Cable will be announced in the coming weeks.
The Aztecs are coming off an 11-3 season where they tied a school record for the most wins in a single year, finished with a 10-game winning streak (second-longest active FBS streak heading into 2016), won the MW title (20th conference title in program history) and beat Cincinnati, 42-7, in the Hawai'i Bowl.
