All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

San Diego State vs San Jose State Game Preview


Why San Diego State Will Win

How is San Diego State doing this? It’s San Diego State, so the defense is stellar, the running game is fantastic, and the team has a way of taking a stranglehold on games.

The ground attack has hit 200 yards in each of the five games, the run defense has yet to allow more than 70 yards a game, and good luck busting the Aztecs out of their formula.

Can San Jose State run? It’s 111th in the nation averaging just over 100 yards per game.

Can the Spartans stop the run? For the most part, yeah, but they were hit for 217 yards by Colorado State last week in the loss.

So far this year, San Jose State is 0-3 when allowing more than 130 rushing yards.

Why San Jose State Will Win

You’ve GOT to break San Diego State out of its style, and that could come with one of San Jose State’s relative weaknesses becoming a positive.

Utah and New Mexico State were able to put up yards on the Aztecs through the air, and if possible, getting them to start throwing would feed into the gameplan.

San Jose State has been good against the run – for the most part – and struggled in the secondary since the early win over Southern Utah. In this, it’ll be too tempting for SDSU not to throw – that’s what the Spartans might want. That takes the focus off the ground attack – SJSU needs to push the time of possession battle its way a bit, but …

What’s Going To Happen

San Jose State will never seem like it has the ball.

Yeah, San Diego State will throw a bit here and there just to mix it up, but Greg Bell and the slew of rushing options will take over early.

At home on a Friday night, the Spartans will come up with a terrific effort and should keep this in range into the second half, and then the Aztecs will take the air out of the ball.

5. College Football News Preview 2020: Georgia State Panthers Offense 3 Things To Know

– The offense had a little fun. Former quarterback Dan Ellington was able to engineer some big performances – the O came up with 38 points or more four times in the first eight games – but things slowed down.

The Panthers were 31st in the nation in total offense, was great on third downs, and was 12th in rushing. Now the attack has to replace Ellington, who was the do-it-all star who made it all go.

Redshirt freshman Cornelious Brown is a 6-5, 180-pound option who got in a little bit of work in four games. He’s not the runner Ellington was, but he’s a terrific pro-style passing option. 5-10, 180-pound Kierston Harvey is another interesting candidate who also saw a little bit of time.

Most of the top targets are back, starting with leading receiver Cornelius McCoy – catching 70 passes for 757 yards and five scores – and 6-4 sophomore Sam Pinckney added five touchdowns. They’re the main men along with All-Sun Belt TEs Aubry Payne and Roger Carter. Kentucky Spencer Gaddis should be a factor, and speedster Terrance Dixon will be back after missing most of last year.

The offensive line gets back four starters after going young with underclassmen throughout last season. There’s not a ton of size outside of 6-6, 330-pound sophomore Travis Glover at tackle, but Shamarious Gilmore is an all-star guard, and experience isn’t a problem. The one loss, though – left tackle Hunter Atkinson – was the star up front.

Leading rusher Tra Barnett is gone, leaving the junior combination of Destin Coates and Seth Paige to take over – the two combined for close to 1,000 yards with 11 scores, and the each went well over six yards per carry.
