San Jose State Spartans vs Utah State Aggies Player Props

The Friday football showdown on October 17, 2025 between the San Jose State Spartans vs Utah State Aggies takes place at Merlin Olsen Field at Maverik Stadium in Logan, UT. Broadcast on CBS Sports Netwo, this NCAAF clash promises high-paced action under the Friday lights.

San Jose State’s pass offense ranks top-30 in yards per game but will face a stout Utah State pass defense that limits opponents to under 200 passing yards per contest.
