The Alabama Crimson Tide proved to be too much for Fresno State on Saturday, backing up its No. 1 ranking with a 41-10 victory over the Bulldogs.
In head coach Jeff Tedford’s second game at the helm, the Bulldogs struggled to defend against the run, a problem that has plagued the team for years.
Fresno State quarterback Chason Virgil led a few long drives against the Tide’s defense, but only pushed the Bulldogs to the end zone once. Virgil completed 21 of 34 attempts for 180 yards with the one touchdown. He also threw an interception in the 4th quarter.
