"Friday night, the Spartans rallied from an eight-point deficit to take a 25-24 lead early in the fourth quarter at Utah State and even after falling behind had the ball at midfield on two drives in the final minutes, but could not complete the comeback in a 30-25 loss.. It was the fourth one score loss of the season for San Jose State (2-5, 1-2 Mountain West). "All of our losses have been like this," head coach Ken Niumatalolo said. "Gut wrenching, heart ripping losses.""
"The Spartans didn't arrive in Logan, Utah, in optimal position with both NCAA-leading receiver Danny Scudero and quarterback Walker Eget questionable to play because of injuries. Eget put up some solid numbers, completing 27 of 49 passes for 340 yards and two touchdown passes. But Scudero, who came into the game leading the country with 50 receptions, 845 yards receiving and eight touchdowns, was held to six catches for 25 yards and required medial attention multiple times during the loss."
