Defense bolsters confidence, offense raises questions as SDSU prepares for first-round matchup against College of Charleston
Optimism rules. Pessimism hits the showers.“Our goal is the national championship,” said guard Lamont Butler, proving he understands the mindset of most-anything-goes in March. “It’s there for us. We have nine players who can come in at any time and go off. Our defense is one of the best in the nation. We’ve had multiple games where people led us in scoring. We’re just deep.
Though not exactly a ringing endorsement, it’s definitely a fair sense of things for a team that defends in its sleep while scavenging for enough late-game points to keep jelly-legged opponents at arms-length.
“The top of my priority list is to make sure I can control my own defensive boards against them,” Bonner said of Charleston’s challenge. “You can’t allow San Diego State to dominate you on the offensive boards. They’re just relentless.
