What you need to know about Nevada

Nevada didn't have too much trouble with the Utah State Aggies on the road this past Friday as they won 85-72. Guards Desmond Cambridge Jr. and Grant Sherfield were among the main playmakers for Nevada as the former shot 6-for-9 from beyond the arc and finished with 27 points and nine boards and the latter had 24 points and five assists.

Nevada has some serious offensive firepower behind Cambridge and Sherfield, but they have struggled mightily on the defensive end. That said, they are clearly the better team in this matchup and should have no issues lighting up the scoreboard against San Jose State. Nevada is 7-15 against the spread in 2021-22.

What you need to know about San Jose State

Meanwhile, SJSU has to be hurting after a devastating 74-52 defeat at the hands of the Wyoming Cowboys this past Saturday. One thing holding SJSU back was the mediocre play of guard Omari Moore, who did not have his best game: he finished with only eight points on 3-for-12 shooting and turned the ball over four times in his 37 minutes on the court.

The Wolf Pack are stumbling into the contest with the 35th most points allowed per game in college basketball, giving up 74.8 points per game on average. If the Spartans are able to capitalize on Nevada's defensive issues, they may be able to keep this game close and possibly even pull off the upset. San Jose State is 13-10 against the spread in 2021-22.
