FRESNO, Calif. (AP) -- Billy Volek passed for five touchdowns and Josh Levi scored on a school-record 94-yard run as Fresno State routed San Jose State 63-12 Saturday night to clinch a share of the Western Athletic Conference title.

Volek completed 22 of 30 passes for 311 yards. His five TD passes gave him a school-record 30 for the season.

After the game, Fresno State accepted an invitation to the EA Sports Las Vegas Bowl on Dec. 18.

Fresno State (8-4, 5-2 WAC) jumped to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter.

Volek's 25-yard scoring pass to Charles Smith gave Fresno State the lead less than five minutes into the game. Volek also had scoring tosses of 3 yards to Billy Jack Pierce and 15 yards to Smith in the quarter.

Volek added a 5-yard TD pass to Pierce in the second quarter, and Marcellus Armstrong scored on a 26-yard run for a 35-0 lead before San Jose State (2-9, 1-6) got on the scoreboard. Chris Kasteler tossed a 15-yard pass to Waking Bailey for a TD with 1:03 left in the half.

Fresno State continued to dominate the game in the second half. The Bulldogs finished with 685 yards in total offense, while allowing San Jose just 195 yards through the first three quarters and 305 for the game.

Volek had a 35-yard scoring pass in the third quarter and Armstrong scored on a 5-yard run. Volek and most of Fresno State's starters on offense and defense sat out almost the entire fourth quarter.
