The Spartans face a top-20 opponent for the second week in a row, but this time at home, on national TV and on a Sunday afternoon.
SAN JOSE — There will be more eyes than usual on San Jose State’s football team for its home opener.
Here are some keys to San Jose State upsetting the Beavers, who enter the game as a 16.5 point favorite. Kickoff is at 12:30 p.m. at CEFCU Stadium.The Spartans are playing a very different team than the high-powered offense that they faced at USC. If the Spartans want to win this game, they cannot get worn down by the Beavers. Last week, SJSU gave up 160 rushing yards and three touchdowns to a USC team with an average offensive line and not nearly the same bruising type of running backs that Oregon State possesses.
Nash stepped in as the No. 1 receiver in Lockhart’s absence and was named Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week for his performance. One of his TD catches ended up being the No. 2 play on SportsCenter that night. “I think we just need to keep giving the ball to our playmakers and block,” said SJSU offensive lineman Jaime Navarro. “I think if we do that and pay attention to detail, we’ll have a great game.”When the Spartans have an opportunity to put points on the board, they need to capitalize. Oregon State had the best red zone defense last season with opponents scoring on 64% of its red zone trips.
