Key Player Matchups
QB Walker Eget (SJSU) vs. Texas Secondary
Eget’s arm is the Spartans’ best weapon; must avoid turnovers against a fast, disciplined Longhorns back end.
WR Danny Scudero (SJSU) vs. Texas CBs
Scudero’s speed and route running can create chunk plays; Texas’ speed on the perimeter will test him.
RB Quintrevion Wisner (TEX) vs. SJSU Front Seven
SJSU allowed 236 rush yards to CMU; Wisner and CJ Baxter could control tempo and wear down the Spartans.
QB Arch Manning (TEX) vs. SJSU Pass Rush
Expect Sarkisian to simplify reads and use play‑action; SJSU must generate pressure to disrupt rhythm.
