That first pick, it came right to Wylan Free, the Fresno State cornerback. In man coverage against Idaho, Free was right there off the line of scrimmage, step for step. No matter whether the receiver broke the wrong way or the quarterback made the wrong read, Free was ready and the pass hit right in the No. 8 on his chest.
He had to figure college football wasn’t always going to be that easy, but the redshirt freshman cornerback said that he has had a lot of help making it at least appear that way.
Fresno State cornerback Wylan Free had an interception in his first college game, the Bulldogs’ 79-13 rout of Idaho.
