SJSU vs. UNLV: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAAF game

Through 3 Quarters

The San Jose State Spartans were expected to win this one, and they are just one quarter away from fulfilling that expectation. After three quarters it's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the UNLV Rebels as SJSU lead 31-17. WR Bailey Gaither has led the way so far for the Spartans, as he has caught five passes for two TDs and 82 yards.

With five sacks, the San Jose State defense has been a true menace for UNLV's offensive line. We'll see how many sacks SJSU can scare up the rest of the game.

What to Know

The San Jose State Spartans and the UNLV Rebels are set to square off in a Mountain West matchup at 10:30 p.m. ET Nov. 14 at CEFCU Stadium. The Spartans are cruising in on a three-game winning streak while UNLV is stumbling in off of three consecutive losses.

SJSU beat the San Diego State Aztecs 28-17 last Friday. SJSU QB Nick Nash did work as he passed for two TDs and 169 yards on 25 attempts in addition to rushing for one TD and 53 yards.

Meanwhile, the Rebels came up short against the Fresno State Bulldogs last week, falling 40-27. A silver lining for UNLV was the play of QB Max Gilliam, who passed for one TD and 160 yards on 31 attempts in addition to rushing for one TD and 139 yards. One of the most memorable plays of the game was Gilliam's 71-yard touchdown rush in the third quarter.

The UNLV defensive unit accumulated four sacks for a loss of 31 yards. Leading the way was LB Jacoby Windmon and his 2.5 sacks. Windmon now has 3.5 sacks.

SJSU is the favorite in this one, with an expected 16-point margin of victory. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a three-game streak of ATS wins.

SJSU is now a perfect 3-0 while the Rebels sit at a mirror-image 0-3. Two offensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: The Spartans are 15th worst in the nation in rushing yards per game, with only 94 on average. UNLV has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the contest with the 17th fewest yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 312 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
