Walker Eget News, Rumors, Updates - San Jose State Spartans | FOX Sports

Pulled vs. Fresno State Eget completed 14 of 31 passes for 202 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 33-10 defeat to Fresno State.

Impact Eget got off to a good start Saturday, leading the Spartans on a scoring drive to open the game, capped by a 35-yard touchdown to Nick Nash. However, the junior quarterback couldn't replicate his early success, ultimately throwing a pair of interceptions before he was replaced by Xavier Ward. It remains to be seen if San Jose State will turn to Eget, Ward or Emmett Brown when they take on Oregon State in Week 11 following a bye.

Mixed results in first start Eget completed 20 of 38 passes for 318 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 24-14 victory over Wyoming. He also had three rushes for 45 yards.

Impact Eget got the start Saturday after relieving Emmett Brown in each of the Spartans' previous two contests. It was an up-and-down effort for Eget overall -- he surpassed the 300-yard mark despite completing only 52.6 percent of his passes while throwing a pair of interceptions that allowed Wyoming to stay in the game. It remains to be seen which quarterback San Jose State will turn to next week in a road matchup with Fresno State.

Sharp in relief role Eget was 22-for-30 passing for 256 yards and one interception during Saturday's 31-24 defeat to Colorado State. He also had three rushes for 23 yards.

Impact It's the second straight week that Eget took over for a struggling Emmett Brown. The junior Eget was sharp, completing 73.3 percent of his passes, though he'd throw a crucial fourth-quarter interception that would stunt San Jose State's comeback attempt. Still, Eget could earn a starting look next week when the Spartans take on Wyoming.

Enters in relief Eget went 10-for-13 passing for 141 yards during Saturday's 35-31 victory over Nevada.

Impact Eget made his first appearance of the season Saturday, twice coming on in relief for a struggling Emmett Brown, including on the Spartans' final game-winning drive. While Eget was solid Saturday, it would be surprising to see him take over the starting job after Brown's impressive start to the campaign. Still, it remains to be seen who'll get the nod under center next week against Colorado State.

Backup to begin season Eget will not be the Spartans' starting quarterback Thursday against Sacramento State, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Emmett Brown will be the Spartans' starting quarterback Thursday. Ideally for Eget, he can at least participate in some snaps against Sacramento State. Otherwise, the reserve must wait at least one week more to potentially receive an opportunity as a QB1.

Co-starter for Week 1 Eget has been listed as a co-starter for the Week 1 matchup against Sacramento State on Thursday.

Impact There's no clarity on how San Jose State will handle their reps under center, but Eget seems set to battle with Emmett Brown for the starting role. Eget has been a backup in the last two seasons he's been part of the SJSU program.

In two-man race for starting job Eget is battling Emmett Brown for San Jose State's starting gunslinger job, Nathan Canilao of The Mercury News reports.

Impact Eget, a two year backup for San Jose State, is competing with Emmett Brown, a transfer from Washington State, for the Spartans' starting signal caller job. The separation between the two appears to be razor-thin. "Right now it's neck-and-neck between Walker and Emmett right now," Spartans' head coach Ken Niumatalolo said. "Right now I'm looking for the guy who's going to take care of the ball for us and also be the leader that commands the respect from both sides of the ball."
