Why Fresno State Will Win

The passing game has gone up a few notches.

As it turned out, Jake Haener really is that good. The team survived the month he was out hurt, but now he and the Bulldogs are ripping everyone apart.

The air show is clicking at an 82% clip over the last two weeks with seven touchdown passes and no interceptions, and that’s coming off the thrilling comeback win over San Diego State.

The Nevada pass defense isn’t going to have too many answers, but …

Why Nevada Will Win

So what’s going right for Nevada over the eight game losing streak?

Not much, but there aren’t a lot of problems with turnovers, the defensive front isn’t bad at getting behind the line, and there should be just enough pressure on Haener to slow things down a wee bit.

Fresno State isn’t above turning it over a slew of times – giving it away at least twice in five games – but …

What’s Going To Happen

Nevada won’t be able to keep up.

It played well in the loss to San Jose State a few weeks ago, but the running game isn’t going anywhere, the passing attack isn’t accurate or consistent, and  Fresno State is rolling.

It takes the West Division title and it’s off to the Mountain West Championship with a win. It won’t have to sweat too much.

Why Fresno State Will Win

The Bulldogs had a weird first week against Hawaii, but the team just needed to get going. Over the last three weeks, Fresno State has cranked up the offense with veteran RB Ronnie Rivers, but it’s the defensive side that turned things around.

The pass rush leads the nation with five sacks per game, getting steady production throughout from a variety of parts. The Nevada offensive line hasn’t done enough for the running game, and it’s just okay in pass protection.

Week 14 College Schedule

Why Nevada Will Win

Yeah, Fresno State has gone on a three-game winning streak, but beating Colorado State, UNLV and Utah State isn’t anything to get too jazzed up about.

A win is a win is a win, but Nevada is a ramp up in talent level.

The Wolf Pack might have lost last week at Hawaii, but the offense wasn’t bad, the passing game has been strong throughout the season, and this is the toughest receiving corps the Bulldogs have had to deal with so far by a ton.

Yes, Nevada QB Carson Strong’s production has dropped, but even in the loss last week – the 168 yards were the fewest of the season – he still hit 80% of his passes.

CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

Nevada will get back on track at home.

The passing game won’t go off on the Bulldogs, but the pass rush will be a bother in the backfield, the offense will be a bit more explosive, and the defensive front will keep Rivers from taking over the game.
