When Fresno State went to San Diego State last season and ran over, around and through the Aztecs, running back Ronnie Rivers was not available to play.
He had started five of the first six games but suffered an elbow injury the previous week in a victory over New Mexico, so it was Josh Hokit who had the big runs and Jordan Mims who had the most runs when the Bulldogs racked up 199 rushing yards at a healthy 5.2 yards per play in a 27-3 victory.
The Bulldogs deployed a rotation similar to what they have used this season — and they are likely to do so again Saturday when they can clinch a division title in the Mountain West.
