The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!

The Good: For most of the 1st Half, the Spartans (2-3) and Bulldogs (4-2) were tied at 14-14. Even when Fresno State kicker John Aguilar booted a 49 yard FG with 0:06 seconds left in the half, the San Jose State faithful were still feeling good about how the team had played. RB John Moreno had already busted out a 49 yard run to get the offense moving, QB Tony Lima had connected on a 75 yard TD strike to TE Harold Corcoran, and OLB Michael Williams had run back a 66 yard fumble return for a TD.

The Bad: The Spartans defense just could not contain Fresno State RB Michael Carlson, as he rushed for 121 yards on 25 carries (4.84 YPC) and added a receiving TD. The defense also had no answer for WR Aaron Grant, whose 8 catches for 136 yards was highlighted by his 83 yard 3rd quarter TD catch that broke the game wide open. Lastly, setting aside his 49 yard run (see above), John Moreno could only muster a dismal 30 rushing yards with his other 25 carries.

The Ugly: First off, the Spartans were penalized 11 times for a loss of 72 yards; never a blueprint for success. Next, QB Tony Lima completed just 13 of his 33 passing attempts, and WR Charles Lovell (3 catches in 14 attempts) dropped 2 key passes. Finally, the sloppy special teams play of the Spartans gave the Bulldogs far too many extra yards & points that San Jose State could ill afford to give.

With the loss, the Spartans move to 1-2 in the "West Division" of the Mountain West Conference. Next up, the Boise State Broncos.
