In the three day turnaround after a demoralizing loss to Nevada, San Jose State (12-6, 3-2 MW) course-corrected Tuesday night to an energetic 74-64 win over Fresno State (6-10, 2-3 MW).
With the Fresno State rivalry around since 1916 and after 11 consecutive losses to the Bulldogs since 2017, San Jose State was electric Tuesday night.
For the modest crowd of 2,084 at SJSU, they witnessed a night where the Spartans repeatedly played above the rim, where at least seven rim shakers could have been ESPN-highlight-worthy.
And the keys to victory? No secret except the application of aggression and energy.
