In the 76-70 win vs. San Diego State, Jacobson was one-point shy of his career high with 25 points. He tied the school record with seven 3-pointers (in 10 attempts) and hit 9-of-14 shots from the field. Jacobson's 19 points (4-of-6 treys) was a game high in the 63-57 overtime win at Air Force Saturday as he played the entire 45 minutes.
