Ball State vs. San Jose State
Suggested Line 1: San Jose State -12.49
Suggested Line 2: San Jose State -13.05
Suggested Line 3: San Jose State -13.17
Suggested Line 4: San Jose State -13.44
PLAY: San Jose State Spartans -9 (10 Units)
The San Jose State Spartans are looking to do what Coastal Carolina was not able to do and that is complete the miracle undefeated season to cap off one of the best seasons in program history. In order to get that done they are going to have to go through the improbable MAC Conference Champions the Cardinals from Ball State. I say improbably because for the second year in a row the Conference was Buffalo's to lose and someone managed to knock them out. Now this game is being played in Tucson, Arizona which is more in San Jose State territory and really out of Ball State's MAC Conference climate zone so I think it will be an adjustment for the Cardinals. After losing their season opener to Miami-Ohio, Ball State reeled off 6 straight wins to win the Conference and come into this game playing some good football. Offense is everything for Ball State and today they play one of the best defenses they have faced all season. San Jose State is ranked #13 in points scored, #18 in rushing yards allowed per game and #28 in the Country in points allowed per game. They are no joke. What's even more impressive with the Spartans is their complete dominance of Boise State in the Mountain West Conference Championship Game as a +6.5 point underdog and I truly believe this team won't be satisfied with their season if they don't cap it off with a big win in this Bowl Game. Ball State comes into this game 0-4 ATS in their last four Bowl Games and they have also been pretty bad playing on Thursdays going 2-6 ATS in their last eight. San Jose State is a perfect 6-0-1 ATS in their seven games this season and dating back to last season they are 12-3-2 ATS in their last 17 games overall. The Spartans are 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games versus a team with a winning record on the season and 13-3-2 ATS in their last 18 games coming off an ATS spread win. They are now 6-0 ATS in their last six December games and 8-1-2 ATS in their last 11 games coming off a straight up win. I think the Spartans dominate on both sides of the ball and cap off their season with a huge W to stay perfect on the year.
Trend of the Game: San Jose State is 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 games versus a team with a winning record on the season.
San Jose State 37, Ball State 16
