Hold up on third down San Diego State doesn't have many true weaknesses. Consider that a credit to a big, talented roster and a reliable style of play that Jason Eck considers a throwback to his last season in college. "They remind you of a 1998 Big Ten team," UNM's first-year head coach said Tuesday. "I mean, that's how we were at Wisconsin.
