Head-to-head: San Jose State has faced the Southern Utah Thunderbirds twice and has won both times.
In their first head-to-head in 2000, the Spartans blew out the T-Birds 47-7.
In the last face-off in 2010, the Spartans managed a 16-11 win, which was their only win that season. Head coach Brent Brennan was also the Spartans’ receivers coach back then.
Pressure still
If there is pressure on the defending conference champion Spartans to win Saturday night, it’s right out of the gate against this supposed “lesser” competitor.
