San Jose State vs Fresno State Prediction 

San Jose State comes into this matchup after a rough offensive showing against San Diego State, but they will be back at home here. The Spartans have lost three games in a row and they have scored a grand total of 19 points in those three games. Fresno State has won two of their last three games, but they have scored 21 points or fewer in three of their last five. I am curious to see if Eget is able to play for SJSU, which will dictate which direction I go for this game. If Eget is playing, I like the Spartans to win, but if he is out, I will take Fresno . I am going to assume he is out, based on what I have seen, so I will take Fresno State on the road.
