I can’t tell you that Fresno State will be playing in a bowl this December, only express confidence the Bulldogs won’t get bowled over like they did a season ago.
And if they do, they’ll be better equipped to pick themselves back up.
I won’t predict Fresno State reclaims the Mountain West Conference’s West Division. Just that there will be less internal division.
Easy to scan the Bulldogs’ depth chart and identify weaknesses. (Coach Tim DeRuyter might want to bubble-wrap all healthy tailbacks till September.) Impossible to watch the players and coaches interact during fall camp and not see newfound strengths – the kind that can’t be bench-pressed.
