Fresno State Bulldogs Clash with Colorado State Rams at Save Mart Center

As the Fresno State Bulldogs prepare to host the Colorado State Rams at the Save Mart Center, fans are eager to see if their team can continue its recent performance trends. The Bulldogs have shown a mixed bag of results in their past games, which could make for an unpredictable matchup.

In their most recent game against San Diego State Aztecs, the Bulldogs narrowly missed victory with a final score of 43-45. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways; notably, they shot an impressive 100 percent from the free-throw line and maintained a strong two-point field goal percentage of 52 percent. However, they struggled beyond the arc with only an eight percent success rate on three-point attempts.

The game prior saw them facing off against Nevada's Wolf Pack where they put up a more robust offensive effort scoring 66 points but ultimately fell short as defense lagged allowing 77 points. Their three-point shooting improved significantly to 31 percent and they had a better assist-to-turnover ratio of approximately two.

A win was secured in their encounter with San Jose State Spartans before that, finishing at 70-62 in favor of Fresno State. The Bulldogs excelled from both two-point range (50 percent) and three-point range (67 percent), coupled with an aggressive fast break strategy that earned them 19 points.

The upcoming game's venue is familiar territory for Fresno State – playing at home could provide them with the edge needed to tip scales in their favor. Fans should look out for whether Fresno can capitalize on its free throw accuracy and inside scoring while working on bolstering its perimeter defense and consistency from downtown.

Mark your calendars for February 18th when these teams face off at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California. Tip-off is scheduled for 2:00 PM local time (22:00 UTC). Fans unable to attend can catch all the action streamed live on MW Network online platform.
