In the 95 seasons of Fresno State football, the Bulldogs have captured 27 conference titles.
Here’s the straight truth: 2017 will not be added to the list.
Since 1937, when the Bulldogs edged Arkansas State 27-26 in the Little All-American Bowl at the LA Coliseum, Fresno State has played in 26 bowls.
Considering 6-6 teams go to bowl games nowadays (and sometimes 5-7), let’s not rule out these Bulldogs before they’ve suited up. But it’s fairly unlikely.
That’s the problem when you’re coming off a 1-11 season, one that ushered in a new era on Bulldog Lane.
