Viliami Teu runs for 2 TDs, San Jose State beats winless Northern Illinois 30-19
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) --- Viliami Teu ran for two touchdowns and San Jose State
got closer to bowl eligibility with a 30-19 victory over winless Northern
Illinois on Saturday.
Trajan Sinatra's third field goal of the game gave the Spartans (5-5, 3-3
Mountain West) a 16-13 halftime edge and the lead for good.
After a muffed punt set the Spartans up deep in NIU territory in the third
quarter, Teu eventually scored from a yard out. The Huskies (0-9, 0-5) turned
the ball over on downs at their own 29-yard line and Daniel Rolovich hit
Dominique McKenzie with a TD pass on the next play to lead 30-13.
Rolovich threw for 231 yards and a score. Teu had just 42 yards on 17 carries
but with the two TDs for San Jose State, which snapped a two-game skid.
Taron Dickens threw for 198 yards with a TD and an interception for the
Huskies, who have lost 11 straight dating to last season, the nation's longest
active losing streak in the Bowl Subdivision.
