Traditionally, San Jose State has circled games against Stanford and played their best. But this San Jose State team has to be somewhat deflated, playing tough against ranked Boise State and UNLV teams but falling short.
So, while I think Stanford is not going to be able to match the intensity they showed against Louisville and Kal, I don't think San Jose State is going to play their best, either.
In the end, I like the match-up for Stanford, as April has shown that he can usually call-up a good scheme against pass-happy teams. I don't have as much faith in Stanford's offense, but I think Ashton Daniels again avoids the big mistake and the team does just enough. Stanford 24 San Jose State 21.
Deflated? Have our dear Cardinal deflated after the WAY we lost at KAL. Stanford playing for what?
Bill Walsh Legacy Trophy. Brilliant Bill Walsh is / was The Genius -- but finished 4-7 and 3-7-1 in 1993 and 1994.
Spartans QB Eget outduels us in Q4... just as KAL did. SAD. Purgatory at 3-9.
SJST likely gets an Arizona Bowl bid on Dec. 28.
