The last time these teams met was two years ago and BYU salvaged a 17-16 win as an 11.5-point favorite. BYU has yet to beat an FBS team this season and the Cougars average a minuscule 12.1 points per game, which is fewer than the point spread for this game. BYU is #128 out of 130 FBS teams with 264.8 yards of total offense per game making even San Jose State look good as the Spartans average 329.5 total offense yards. BYU lost to East Carolina while San Jose State covered against Hawaii as a 17-point underdog in their last games. Quarterback Montel Aaron had a decent game for the Spartans throwing for 322 yards on 17-of-27 with two touchdowns. The Cougars still haven't covered the number this year with a current 0-8 ATS record and do not deserve to be laying this many points to anyone. Play San Jose State.
