San Diego State (23-8) was led by Matt Bradley, who finished with 17 points and seven rebounds. Lamont Butler finished with 16 points for the Aztecs.
“I had space to just go down the lane and make a layup,” said Matt Bradley on his last shot attempt. “I should have made it. I was right at the rim. I missed two earlier layups the same way. I should have made it, I got the rebound and Trey had a great look, too.
"We had two great looks at the end of it, but I definitely should have finished mine.”
