For the first time since 2006, the San Jose State Spartans beat a Power Five opponent when they knocked off the SEC’s Arkansas Razorbacks, 31-24, last Saturday.
In this edition of the Mountain West Connection’s Film Study, we’ll detail how the Spartan defense and quarterback, Josh Love, were the main ingredients to the upset win.
San Jose State picked off Arkansas quarterback Nick Starkel five times. Bobby Brown got two of them while Ethan Aguayo, Nehemiah Shelton and Jay Lenard all had one. It was a great day for the defense, which held Arkansas to 131 rushing yards and 4.
