For more than 11 tortured minutes in the national championship game, no matter what they tried, the Aztecs could not make a field goal, a hole they couldn’t dig out of in a 76-59 loss.
AP Sports WriterA thrilling buzzer-beater by Lamont Butler landed the Aztecs one win away from a national title.Then things fell apart.
“We were talking about it for sure,” Butler said. “And we were trying to figure out what we can do to stop the scoring drought and create advantages for ourselves. We tried but things weren’t working.” “It’s the national championship game, a lot of things had to go right on our end in order to win,” guard Matt Bradley said. “And when you’re missing shots and turning the ball over and even when you’re playing hard on defense, it’s not going to be enough. So we learned that tonight for sure.”
San Diego State used a 14-4 spurt, with the first four points from Jaedon LeDee, to get within 60-55 with about five minutes to go.
