San Jose State University is in the Mountain West finals, but it seems like they wish they had earned their spot on the court.

The Spartans are headed to the championship game after Boise State announced Thursday that it would forfeit its semifinal game due to the controversy surrounding trans player Blaire Fleming.

The Broncos made the announcement shortly after defeating Utah State in the first round of the playoffs. Boise State lost both regular season games to SJSU, while Utah State lost its only game.

In response to the Broncos’ loss, SJSU said they were “disappointed” by the move.

“This Thanksgiving season, we are especially grateful for those who continue to engage in civil and respectful discourse,” San Jose State’s statement said. “We celebrate and support all of our students, including our student-athletes, who fight for our community this holiday weekend.

“While we are disappointed with Boise State’s decision, our women’s volleyball team is preparing for Saturday’s game and looking forward to competing for the championship.”

SJSU now awaits the winner of top-seeded Colorado State and No. 5 San Diego State; Neither team lost to them in the regular season.

Boise State, Wyoming, Utah State and Nevada were among the conference teams that canceled games against the Spartans while Fleming was present on the team. They knew the loss would result in a loss of their record, which ultimately helped SJSU secure their high seed.
