Why San Jose State Will Win
Utah State has had a very inconsistent season, winning against some of the top conference teams while also losing against some of the bottom feeders. After beating Boise State a couple of weeks ago they are currently on a three game losing streak which includes most recently, a loss to Air Force. Utah State with Sam Merrill and Koby McEwen may have more talent than the Spartans but look for San Jose State to out-rebound and play just good enough defense at home to beat the Aggies for their first conference win of the season.
