Jayden Denegal threw for 208 yards in his San Diego State debut, while Lucky Sutton posted his first 100-yard game to lead the Aztecs to a 42-0 win over Stony Brook in Thursday’s season opener.<\/p>\n

Sutton scored twice and reached the century mark on 22 carries. Christian Washington and Parker Threatt also found the end zone in the blowout win.<\/p>\n
Denegal was particularly impressive in the first half. He elevated a throw in traffic to Jacob Bostick for a 23 yard gain on their second possession. He then took advantage of a free play, finding Bostickwide open in the end zone from 25 yards out.<\/p>\n
Denegal hit Mikey Welsh for a 44-yard catch and run that set up a field goal that put the Aztecs ahead 17-0. They led 20-0 at the half.<\/p>\n
The third quarter started slow. After two punts and a turnover on downs, Denegal opened a drive with a 44-yard deep ball down the sideline to Donovan Brown. Sutton ended the possession with this second touchdown.<\/p>\n
Lewis put backup quarterback Bert Emanuel Jr. in for the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
San Diego State’s defense recorded the shutout without forcing a turnover. They finished with three sacks and five tackles for loss.<\/p>\n
