With the return of Williams and Haener, ‘Dogs secure Old Oil Can Trophy

After missing the previous four games with a high ankle sprain, Fresno State quarterback Jake Haener made his return on Oct. 29 in Fresno State’s 32-28 thrilling comeback win against San Diego State.

The 18-point comeback was its biggest since Derek Carr led a 21-0 comeback win against New Mexico on Oct. 27, 2012.

Trailing 28-10 into the final play of the third quarter, Haener delivered a touchdown pass to wide receiver Zane Pope to cut the lead to 28-17. After stopping the Aztecs at the 29-yard line on 4th-and-1, the Bulldogs drove down the feld and entered the red zone.
