Aztecs’ game postponed

Associated Press The Spokesman-Review

SAN DIEGO – The BYU Cougars-San Diego State Aztecs football game scheduled for Saturday night has been postponed until Dec. 1 because Qualcomm Stadium is being used as an evacuation center for residents displaced by wildfires.

“There is a far greater priority than sporting events in the San Diego area at this time,” Mountain West Conference commissioner Craig Thompson said in a statement.

Other factors that led to the decision were air quality, fan safety and transportation considerations.
