Clash at Aggie Memorial Stadium: Fresno State Bulldogs vs New Mexico State Aggies in College Football Showdown
As the Fresno State Bulldogs prepare to face off against the New Mexico State Aggies at Aggie Memorial Stadium, fans are eager for insights into how their team might fare. Based on recent performances, there's reason to believe that the Bulldogs have a strong chance of coming out on top.
In their last game on September 22, 2019, against Sacramento State Hornets at Bulldog Stadium, the Bulldogs showcased a robust offense and defense. They scored an impressive 34 points and demonstrated strategic prowess with an average of over five yards per play. Their passing game was particularly effective; they completed nearly 67 percent of their passes for a total of 326 yards and two touchdowns. The rushing attack added another three touchdowns to the scoreboard.
The defense also stood tall with three sacks and six tackles for loss while forcing one fumble which they recovered. Special teams contributed as well with punts averaging over 43 yards and all landing inside the opponent's 20-yard line.
However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Fresno State in previous games. Against Minnesota Golden Gophers on September 8, despite scoring four touchdowns and achieving a perfect red zone efficiency rate with four successes from four attempts, they narrowly lost by three points in a high-scoring affair that ended at 38-35.
Against USC Trojans on September 1 in Los Angeles, turnovers were costly as they gave up two fumbles and threw one interception. Despite these setbacks, they still managed to rack up over five yards per play overall thanks to an effective ground game that churned out over five yards per carry.
Looking ahead to their matchup against NMS Aggies who will have home-field advantage this time around could be challenging but not insurmountable for FRE Bulldogs. The key will be maintaining offensive momentum while tightening up ball security which has been an issue in past games.
The upcoming battle is set for September 29th at midnight Eastern Time (ET) at Aggie Memorial Stadium in Las Cruces, NM. Fans can catch all the action live on FloSports network as both teams look to assert dominance early in the season.
