Can Spartans Tame the Wolf Pack at Provident Credit Union Event Center?
As the San Jose State Spartans prepare to host the Nevada Wolf Pack, fans are eager to see if their team can turn around recent performances. The upcoming clash is set for a thrilling showdown at the Provident Credit Union Event Center.
The Spartans have had a challenging stretch in their recent outings. In their last game against Colorado State Rams, they struggled to find rhythm, scoring only 47 points and shooting a mere 33 percent from the field. Their two-point attempts were particularly lackluster with only a 35 percent success rate. Additionally, turnovers proved costly as they gave up possession 12 times.
In contrast, during their home game against Fresno State Bulldogs, there was an uptick in performance despite falling short by 12 points. The Spartans managed to improve their two-point field goal percentage slightly to 42 percent and recorded an assist-turnover ratio of 1.2 – indicating better ball control than in previous games.
However, it's worth noting that when facing off against Nevada earlier this month on the road, San Jose State faced significant challenges. They scored just 60 points and allowed a staggering 90 points against them – highlighting defensive vulnerabilities that need addressing before this rematch.
The Provident Credit Union Event Center could provide some home comfort for the Spartans; however, they will need more than just fan support to overcome a Wolf Pack team that has shown potent scoring ability and efficiency on both ends of the court.
Fans can catch all of this action live on February 24th at Fox Sports 1 channel number 219 or attend in person at Provident Credit Union Event Center located in San Jose with tip-off scheduled for February 23rd at local time (US/Pacific).
