Viliami Teu runs for 2 TDs, San Jose State beats winless Northern Illinois 30-19

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- , 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.
