San Jose State at Nevada

October 24, 2026
img5:00 PM Eastern

San Jose State left El Paso last Saturday with a 24-11 win over UTEP, its third road win in four tries this season. Viliami Teu ran for 156 yards and scored two touchdowns. Nevada is 2-4 and has lost four of its last five since opening with a 49-14 rout of Western Kentucky. Those losses came against Montana State, Middle Tennessee, Air Force in double overtime, and North Dakota State last week, 31-17. In the four, the Wolf Pack allowed 20, 27, 36, and 31 points, 28.5 a game. The Spartans have been tougher to score on lately. Hawaii got 16, Wyoming got 16 in an overtime loss, and UTEP got 11. Nevada won this matchup 55-10 last November. Walker Eget led San Jose State in passing that day, and he has since transferred to Duke. The Wolf Pack's lone win since the opener was a 30-13 road win at UTEP, where Herschel Turner ran for 192 yards. UTEP is the same team San Jose State just beat by 13. Nevada hasn't held anyone to less than 20 points in a loss. A San Jose State team with that defensive run and a road record this good should hang in this one. I'm playing San Jose State.
