The Spartans will play Boise State who is currently undefeated and takes on Wyoming for its season finale, and regardless of that result, the Broncos are playing San Jose State.

This was a much-anticipated matchup a few weeks ago, but Boise State was unable to play in that game due to not having enough players due to COVID-19 and injuries. Now, we all get to see it next Saturday.
The location of the game is up in the air. If both teams are undefeated then it comes down to tie-breakers to host this game and it will come down to the old BCS computer rankings to decide since neither team is ranked in the College Football Playoffs.

If Boise State loses, then San Jose State would host but that is a loose term since the game can not be played on their own turf. There have been talks of going back to Las Vegas and maybe even at the home of the Las Vegas Raiders and have the game at Allegiant Stadium or the other option would be at Sam Boyd Stadium. All of that info will be revealed on Sunday.
