So, Ronnie Rivers is back and healthy. In the Fresno State Bulldogs’ 49-27 victory over Toledo, the sophomore running back made some nice plays, hit a punt return for 18 yards and a run from scrimmage for 19 yards; three touches totaling 43 yards in his return from a foot injury suffered back in the spring.
And now … what? The Bulldogs have been working a three-man rotation at running back with Jordan Mims, Josh Hokit and Dejonte O’Neal and now have Rivers joining the group. It might take another game or two before he is ready to pump up the snap counts on game day, but when on the football field Rivers is a presence they have missed.
