San Jose needs this game to become bowl eligible.....thats good enough for me.
I don't like that angle in college. Here is why. The MAIN reason they NEED this win to be bowl eligible, is because they have lost some games along the way, and are probably a pretty mediocre team. Let's face it, the teams in these lower tier conferences that become bowl eligible the final 2 weeks of the season are bottom feeders.
I mean, a win last week @ a very bad Nevada team would have made them bowl eligible too??
I'm not saying that the motivation to make a bowl can't help a team focus or play harder, but that is an intangible when capping games, as every team/player/coach is motivated differently, and everyone responds differently to motivation. Hard to predict.
Just my opinion, on this game, or any game for that matter.

Two common opponents in Hawaii and the scores were both at 72 and 64 respectively combined. Given that Navy has really found their offense the past 5 games averaging 37ppg and SJS averaging 33 over same period leads me to the over. Last years 12-0 score means nothing here and the weather is also decent with almost no wind to speak of.

I go to a lot of SJSU games and I was there last week in Reno, SJSU's run D is atrocious. It was hard to watch and its hard for me to think they will be able to stop a team like Navy. Navy's offense has been clicking so they should be able to get chunks at a time on the ground. Bottom line, I think the wheels are falling off for my Spartans and they will unfortunately miss a bowl game this year

I thought SJSU wouldve had to beat Nevada and Navy in order to guarantee a Bowl Game. I put money on them last week thinking that was the case but it looks like there is no sense of urgency to make that happen.
