San Diego vs San Jose State Prediction

In this San Diego vs San Jose State Prediction, San Jose State is coming as -6.5 home favorites. Both teams have almost identical overall records, with both having three wins so far, but both teams are coming into this matchup in poor form, as San Jose State is 1-2 in its last three games and San Diego having three consecutive losses. Both teams have been involved in some lower-scoring games lately, as they are 9-1 to the under in their last 10 games combined, as they barely score over 140 points per game combined. I expect another low-scoring affair, so take the under 143.5 points in this one.
