Fresno State was able to grind out a solid victory over the San Jose State Spartans last week, winning 17-10. No one had a standout game offensively for Fresno State, but they got scores from RB Jordan Mims and WR Nikko Remigio.

Meanwhile, the point spread favored the Lobos last week, but luck did not. They took a 21-9 hit to the loss column at the hands of the New Mexico State Aggies. QB Miles Kendrick had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw one interception with only 160 yards passing.
Special teams was responsible for all of the team's points. K Luke Drzewiecki delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.
