Live scores, highlights and updates from the San Jose State vs. Utah State football game
San Jose State is 0-4 against Utah State since September of 2017 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Saturday. The San Jose State Spartans will be playing in front of their home fans against the Utah State Aggies at 7:00 p.m. ET at CEFCU Stadium. San Jose State will be hoping to continue their three-game streak of scoring more points each game than the last.
San Jose State's and New Mexico's matchup on Saturday was close at halftime, but San Jose State turned on the heat in the second half with 38 points. San Jose State simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat New Mexico 52-24 on the road. San Jose State pushed the score to 38-17 by the end of the third, a deficit New Mexico had little chance of recovering from.
Kairee Robinson continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 126 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries, while also picking up 63 receiving yards. Quali Conley and his 123 yards on the ground were also a key factor in San Jose State's win.
Meanwhile, while it was all tied up 14-14 at halftime, Utah State was not quite Fresno State's equal in the second half on Friday. Utah State took a 37-32 hit to the loss column at the hands of Fresno State. Despite 107 more yards than Fresno State, Utah State couldn't convert that extra yardage to scores.
The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Cooper Legas, who threw for 363 yards and three touchdowns. Legas is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played. Jalen Royals also helped out as he racked up 125 receiving yards.
San Jose State's win lifted them to 2-5 while Utah State's loss dropped them down to 3-4.
While only San Jose State took care of their fans the last time they played, both teams pleased bettors by covering the spread. Looking forward, San Jose State is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by four points. Utah State might be worth a quick bet since they've covered the spread the last three times they've played San Jose State.
San Jose State came up short against Utah State in their previous matchup back in November of 2022, falling 35-31. Thankfully for San Jose State, Calvin Tyler Jr. (who rushed for 125 yards and three touchdowns) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
