San Jose State (6-5, 5-2 MW) became bowl eligible after the Spartans defeated San Diego State (3-8, 1-6 MW) in the most perfect fall evening of chill and rain.
Under the 24-13 victory was a convincing win of will and guts that’s catapulted the Spartans into a near dream season; regardless of the record.
“The MVPs of our season are the guys on the line.” said head coach Brent Brennan on the offensive and defensive line. “None of what we’ve been able to do is possible without what those guys have done on the brick squad.”
Five straight wins is the biggest turnaround since 2006 after going 1-5 against tough ranked teams.
