"San Jose State's 55-10 loss to Nevada on Saturday afternoon in Reno got out of hand before SJSU had a chance to get going. Three first-half turnovers led the Spartans (3-7, 2-4 Mountain West) to a 31-0 halftime deficit and they had five turnovers in the game, marking the end of their hopes for bowl eligibility. Nevada (2-8, 1-5) snapped a 16-game losing streak in conference play with its last conference victory coming against New Mexico on Oct. 28, 2023."
"Spartans quarterback Walker Eget, the nation's leading passer entering the matchup, had only 45 passing yards in the first half and finished the game 11-of-23 for 74 yards, no touchdowns and a career-high three interceptions. At the end of the third quarter, Eget was benched for freshman quarterback Robert McDaniel, who also tallied an interception. Freshman quarterback Tama Amisone also saw playing time on the Spartans' last two offensive drives, leading the Spartans to their only score of the game on a 12-yard scramble."
