The Spartans shocked the college football world on Saturday night with a 31-24 win over Arkansas.
It was a night of firsts for head coach Brent Brennan and SJSU. First road win under Brennan. First Power-5 win since 2006. First ever win over a SEC school.
And if Brennan’s tearful post-game tells you anything, it’s that this win was worth the wait for a program on the ropes.
As you might expect, SJSU came out like it had nothing to lose. To say that the play calling was aggressive would be an understatement.
