(I bet last year both Arkansas and Army had their San Jose State game in the guaranteed column.)

The point being that in 2018 the expectation was more along the line of
“SJSU should thump UC Davis in opener”, Davis was a game they put in the preseason guarantee win category.

Got it, hope it didn't look like I was detracting from your point. Good to see that the Spartans respect the Ags. My point was that SJSU is an up and down team, as well as "on any given Saturday..."

Would love to see Davis beat them this fall, and point out to SC fans, (and detractors,) that the Trojans just paid alot for what looks like weaker competition, all for the sake of a label....then again things like pre-season previews are all just "what looks like."
