What there is to know
The San Jose State Spartans have been on the wrong end of a one-sided rivalry with the Wyoming Cowboys and are hoping to record their first win since Jan. 13, 2016. SJSU and Wyoming will face off in a Mountain West battle at 21h. AND Wednesday at the Arena-Auditorium. The Cowboys should always feel good after a win, while SJSU will be looking to get back into the win column.
SJSU must be in pain after a bruising 81-56 loss to rebels UNLV on Monday. Guard Myron (MJ) Amey, Jr. made a good effort for the losing team shooting 5 for 8 from beyond the arc and finished with 23 points. Amey, Jr. struggled to find his footing against the Colorado State Rams last Saturday, so it was a step in the right direction.
Meanwhile, Wyoming managed to pull off a solid victory over the Nevada Wolf Pack on Monday, winning 77-67. The Cowboys can attribute much of their success to fullback Drake Jeffries, who shot 6-for-11 from downtown and finished with 20 points, and forward Graham Ike, who lost a double-double with 24 points and 11 rebounds.
The Spartans are the clear underdogs, so they’re hoping the size of the fight will determine this one. Now might not be the best time to face SJSU against the spread, as they have let down the odds in the last three straight games.
SJSU was pulverized by Wyoming 111-80 when the two teams met in March of last year. The loss knocked SJSU out of the playoffs, so expect them to come to Wyoming with a vengeance.
