In order to be eligible for a bowl game, the San Jose State Spartans must win against Boise State at home in its last game of the 2015 season.
1. Stop Thomas Sperbeck:
This is probably going to be the key matchup of the game as well. Sperbeck is currently leading the Mountain West in receiving yards at 1,289 on 76 receptions to go along with eight touchdowns. The junior isn't a big target, but is a quick and shifty receiver standing at only 6' and 175 pounds. On the other side of that matchup, the Spartan pass defense is ranked first in the conference, only allowing 149.
