San Diego State opens its final season in the Mountain West as the overwhelming home favorite against Air Force on Wednesday night. 

The Aztecs (5-3) will face the Falcons (3-8) to finish a three-game homestand at Viejas Arena. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. and the game will air on CBS Sports Network. 

The Aztecs have been established as 23.5-point favorites, according to Fanduel.com. The over/under is 138.5 points. 

SDSU will look to extend its winning streak to three games. This will be the final tuneup before the Aztecs face No. 1 Arizona in Phoenix on Saturday.

The Aztecs were the unanimous preseason pick to win the MW in their final season in the conference. The Aztecs and fellow MW members Boise State, Fresno State, Colorado State, Utah State and Colorado State are joining the new-look Pac-12 next season, along with fellow newcomers Texas State and Gonzaga, plus holdovers Oregon State and Washington State.

Picking the Aztecs might be as sure a bet as there is. The Aztecs have won 11 straight games against the Falcons, one of four double-digit winning streaks against MW teams, and 17 straight at home. Air Force’s last win in San Diego was on Feb. 28, 2005.
