Fresno State was forced to make a switch at quarterback Saturday.
But the results continued to be about the same as the Bulldogs fell into an early deficit at Colorado State.
Zach Kline took over for Fresno State’s second possession, with starter Chason Virgil on the sideline at Hughes Field in Fort Collins with a left shoulder injury.
The Bulldogs went three-and-out on their first possession with no passes by Virgil, who was questionable to return.
Kline came in for the second possession following a Colorado State field goal and rushed for 7 yards on first down, but Fresno State again went three-and-out after a run for no gain by Justin Rice and a 1-yard completion by Kline to tight end Kyle Riddering.
