San Diego State University's football team is part of the highest level of American collegiate football, the Football Bowl Subdivision of Division I (which was formerly known as Division I-A). SDSU is 10–9 all time in post-season bowl games. They first went to a bowl game in 1948 and first won a major-college bowl game in 1969.{{cite web|url=http://www.cfbdatawarehouse.com/data/div_ia/mountainwest/san_diego_state/bowl_history.php|title=San Diego State Bowl History|publisher=College Football Data Warehouse|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121104162836/http://www.cfbdatawarehouse.com/data/div_ia/mountainwest/san_diego_state/bowl_history.php|archive-date=2012-11-04|access-date=2012-11-30}} Until the 2010 season, the Aztec football team had not won a bowl game in the past 37 years. In 2019, the Aztecs reached their 10th straight bowl game.

The Aztecs moved into the new Snapdragon Stadium, located in what had been the parking lot of the team's former home of San Diego Stadium,{{efn|During the Aztecs' tenure in the stadium, the venue was also known as Jack Murphy Stadium, Qualcomm Stadium, and SDCCU Stadium.}} for the 2022 season.{{Cite web|url=https://thedailyaztec.com/97677/news/san-diego-state-announces-multimillion-dollar-donation-to-help-fund-mission-valley-stadium/|title=San Diego State announces multi-million dollar donation to help fund Mission Valley stadium|last=Giovanniello|first=Jeanette|date=2019-12-05|website=The Daily Aztec|access-date=2020-01-29}} During the construction of Snapdragon Stadium, the Aztecs played the 2020 and 2021 seasons at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. The team had played at San Diego Stadium from its opening in 1967 until its closure after the 2019 season; before that, it played in the on-campus Aztec Bowl (now the location of Viejas Arena).

Aztec basketball alumni who became more famous outside the sport include 1930s player Art Linkletter, who went on to an illustrious entertainment career that spanned more than 70 years, and Tony Gwynn, who also played baseball at San Diego State and opted for that sport professionally, ending up in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

In the 2010–11 season, the men's team had a record of 32–2 to capture a share of the Mountain West Conference title. They won the conference tournament outright for the automatic berth to the 2011 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament. The only losses of the regular season were to another top 10 ranked team, BYU, who the Aztecs later beat to win the conference tournament. They earned a 2nd seed in the NCAA tournament, advancing to the Sweet 16. In the 2013–2014 season, the Aztecs finished 29–4, again reaching the NCAA tournament's Sweet 16 round.

The Aztecs reached the Elite Eight, Final Four, and the National Championship for the first time during the 2022–23 season, where they finished runner-up to UConn. The Aztecs returned to the tournament in 2024, reaching the Sweet Sixteen.

The women's lacrosse team began play in 2012 and will play its first season in the Big 12 Conference in spring 2025. The Aztecs had played in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation before that conference dropped the sport after the 2021 season (2020–21 school year) due to a lack of competing members. They then spent the next two seasons as an independent before becoming an affiliate member of the Pac-12 Conference in the 2024 season, the last before that conference's collapse. The Aztecs became one of the six inaugural members of Big 12 women's lacrosse, joined by full members Arizona State, Cincinnati, and Colorado plus fellow affiliates Florida and UC Davis.

Conference affiliations

San Diego State has been a member of six different athletic conferences in its history.

Discontinued sports

In the past, San Diego State, like most American universities, has sponsored several additional varsity sports programs to those currently offered. These programs have since been discontinued. Budgeting and Title IX equity challenges have been cited as the primary reasons for these programs being cut.{{Cite news|url=http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sdut-1s28azcoment004126-no-headline-2008dec28-story.html|title=A no-win situation: It's time to drop football at SDSU|last=Zeigler|first=COMMENTARY Mark|work=sandiegouniontribune.com|access-date=2018-10-21|language=en-US}} In some cases (notably men's crew and men's volleyball), club teams have emerged in place of discontinued sports programs.

Despite coming off a season in which the team was ranked in the top 10 nationally, the men's water polo team, along with other programs, was cut, due to a combination of a lack in athletic department funding, Proposition 13's passage, and necessity to comply with Title IX.

Rivals

= BYU =

SDSU athletics has had a rivalry with the BYU Cougars of Brigham Young University since at least the 1980s when both programs were members of the Western Athletic Conference. The rivalry intensified after both schools left the conference to become charter members of the Mountain West Conference in 1999. Through their many years in the same conferences, the Aztecs and Cougars were routinely tough competition for conference championships in numerous sports among both the men and women. The Cougars departed the Mountain West in 2011, though the programs continue to compete semi-regularly. Men's basketball and football have represented the most high-profile contests of the rivalry.{{Cite web|date=2019-11-29|title=Aztecs fans love to loathe BYU — and for good reason (they believe)|url=https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/aztecs/story/2019-11-28/san-diego-state-aztecs-football-fans-rivalry-byu-brigham-young-university|access-date=2020-12-03|website=San Diego Union-Tribune|language=en-US}}{{Cite web|title=BYU and San Diego State were fierce rivals in the WAC and Mountain West; now they meet again|url=https://sltrib.com/sports/byu-cougars/2019/11/26/byu-san-diego-state-were|access-date=2020-12-03|website=The Salt Lake Tribune|language=en-US}}

San Diego State has a longtime rivalry with California State University, Fresno, primarily stemming from the American football rivalry dating back to the 1920s.

The Aztecs have a local rivalry with the University of San Diego's San Diego Toreros, emphasizing the competition in college men's basketball.

Though more of a rivalry historically outside of sports, the University of California, San Diego, the other major public university in San Diego, represents another local rival of SDSU. The UC San Diego Tritons joined NCAA Division I in 2020. Similar to the way SDSU's student section, The Show, refers to the San Diego Toreros, they often refer to the UC San Diego Tritons as the "little brothers" or "little sisters".{{Cite tweet |user=theshowsdsu |number=1222278031697272832 |url=https://twitter.com/theshowsdsu/status/1222278031697272832 |access-date=2023-06-10 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200130162320/https://twitter.com/TheShowSDSU/status/1222278031697272832 |archive-date=Jan 30, 2020 |title=As much as we HATE our little sisters at USD,… |language=en}}{{Cite tweet |user=theshowsdsu |number=1273356970544660480 |url=https://twitter.com/theshowsdsu/status/1273356970544660480 |access-date=2023-06-10 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200617205659/https://twitter.com/TheShowSDSU/status/1273356970544660480 |archive-date=Jun 17, 2020 |title=We find it extremely cute and we will be rooting for them |language=en}}

El Camino Real Rivalry

The rivalry between the two Cal State schools dates back to 1935. The matchup is named after the historic 600-mile Camino Real that connects the 21 Spanish missions in California, stretching from San Diego Bay in the south to San Francisco Bay in the north.

In 2014, there were conversations between the two programs about creating a trophy using an old mission bell or a replica of an old Spanish mission bell to be awarded to the winner of the rivalry game, but no trophy ever materialized.{{cite web | url=https://blogs.mercurynews.com/sjsu/2014/11/06/clearing-valley-trophy-questions/ | title=Cleaning up some Valley Trophy questions | work=Spartan Central | first=Jimmy | last=Durkin | date=6 November 2014}}
