Colorado State football at San Jose State: How to watch online, betting odds and more

Another week against a Mountain West division leader.

The Colorado State football team is back on the road this week to face a San Jose State team the Rams have dominated in recent years, but this isn't the same Spartans squad.

San Jose State is tied in a battle with Fresno State to win the West Division, with each game close to a must-win. The Rams are still trying to piece together consistency in Year 1 of the Jay Norvell era.

The 8:30 p.m. MT kickoff Saturday will be broadcast on NBC Sports-Bay Area, but it will also be available to watch for free on the Mountain West network.
