San Jose State beats Oregon State to clinch bowl eligibility

Reaching bowl eligibility for the third straight season wasn’t easy for San Jose State.

After starting the season 4-1, the Spartans lost two of their next three games. But SJSU clinched a bowl berth on Saturday, rallying in the fourth quarter for a 24-13 victory at Oregon State.

Momentum wasn’t in the Spartans’ favor, either. SJSU was down 13-10 when quarterback Walker Eget hit wide receiver Nick Nash for a 39-yard touchdown that was immediately called back for offensive pass interference.
