Through 3 Quarters

The Fresno State Bulldogs need a victory to get to even, but right now it could go either way. After three quarters it's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the Colorado State Rams as the Bulldogs lead 31-10. Fresno State has been riding high on the performance of RB Ronnie Rivers, who has rushed for two TDs and 81 yards on 18 carries in addition to catching five passes for one TD and 69 yards.

Fresno State is struggling to protect the pocket and have allowed three sacks. They are going to have to protect the QB better if they want to hold on to their lead.
