For those not familiar with San Jose State it might come as a surprise, the Spartans are one of the better teams in the Western Athletic Conference. We have become so familiar with Boise State and Hawaii over the past couple of years that we forget there are actually other schools in the league. And it’s true, most of them are not very good, but that is not the case with San Jose State. Friday San Jose State hosts the Boise State Broncos on their home turf at Spartan Stadium.
This game is expected to be close and probably even closer than what the oddsmakers have it. Oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com have Boise State installed as little more than a touchdown (-7 1/2) favorite with a 41 total. The two schools met there under similar circumstances in 2006 with the Broncos barely escaping with their lives in a 23-20 win. Then in 2004 it took the Broncos two overtime periods before slipping out of town with a 56-49 victory.
The Spartans are even better this year now that they have had a few years to grow under the guidance of Dick Tomey. The veteran coach is 22-21 in four seasons as the Spartans coach.
