Fresno State no longer undefeated ... - Kathy - 11-30-2013
... thanks to San Jose State, who won last night 62-52. Good for the Spartans!

Heck of a basketball game. Wait, this was played at Spartan Stadium?

Went to the game. Lots of fun. It was basically an arena football game without the roof and the overwhelmingly loud music.
Cheers,

I am sort of happy for our south bay neighbors, although there is some irony here. They went out of pocket last year to play in some meaningless bowl, and then bailed on the Stanford rivalry over $250,000 (estimate). Meanwhile by beating FSU they will miss out on their share of an $8.5 million Fiesta Bowl payout (around $700,000). Are you desperate for money or not, Spartans?Â

Unless NIU loses, FSU was probably not going to pass them in the rankings, right? So FSU likely would not have gone to a BCS bowl anyway as the non-AQ rule explicitly says the highest-ranked non-AQ gets the guaranteed spot.

That could be right. I had heard some commentators talking about Fresno going to the BCS but perhaps it was wishful thinking wrt the computers.
