That’s the first time this season that Amey Jr. scored 30 or more points. Less helpful for San Jose State was Trey Anderson’s abysmal 0-7 three-point shooting.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as both teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. San Jose State hasn’t had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 75.1 points per game.
