Luke Weaver’s Third Touchdown Pass Lifts San Jose State over Eastern Michigan 27-21
The game is streaming only on ESPN Select, with kickoff set for 3:30 p.m. PT as San Jose State seeks its first road win.
On Friday, San Jose State Spartans quarterback Luke Weaver led a fourth-quarter rally to defeat Eastern Michigan Eagles 27-21, with the game streamed exclusively on "ESPN Select" rather than traditional broadcast television.
This game marked the first regular-season meeting between the programs. Previously, Eastern Michigan defeated San Jose State in the 1987 California Bowl and the 2022 Potato Bowl, holding a 2-0 series lead entering Friday.
Weaver completed 23 of 39 passes for 316 yards and three touchdowns, including two to receiver Cooper Hoch. Hoch totaled 115 receiving yards, while running back Jabari Bates led the ground game with 119 yards.
Eastern Michigan led 21-17 entering the final quarter after a fumble recovery. The Spartans' defense held the Eagles to 25 yards in the fourth quarter, with kicker Trajan Sinatra sealing the victory with a 49-yard field goal.
On September 12, Eastern Michigan Eagles travel to Michigan State while San Jose State Spartans return home to host Cal Poly in their respective non-conference matchups.
