Chris’ Pick

I’m rolling with San Jose State here. The Spartans are on fire right now, especially offensively, and they have everything going for them from a team that looked dead in the water to a team that’s one win away from a bowl game. This Aztec team is not the same San Diego State team of years past and they’ve taken some bad losses as of late. I think San Jose State deals them another one here. Give me the Spartans.
