Wyoming vs San Jose State Prediction
San Jose State looks like a team that’s turning the corner with wins in 3 of its last 4 games, and that includes a nice upset win last week on the road in Hawaii. San Jose State entered the season as a decent team with an above-average defense, and we’re seeing things come together. Wyoming is a mess, especially on the offense, where it’s 131st in total offense and 135th in scoring defense. Wyoming also can’t stop the run defensively. This is a bad team. San Jose State should win this game by double digits. I’ll lay the points with the Spartans.
