Read my recommendation on last night's Cal-Oregon game. A lot of the same principals apply here. Fresno St. is playing an excellent team in Boise St. The Broncos are prolific on both offense and defense. In order for the Bulldogs to have a chance against this team, everything must be in order. For the Bulldogs, in my opinion, it is not.
They do have the second-best offensive weapon on the field in RB Robbie Rouse, but, I just don't think he'll be enough. The Dogs have a new QB starting this year, and he's been mediocre, at best; they've lost 142 receptions at receiving positions; they've lost 4, all-WAC offensive linemen
from the '10 team; and, finally, they've lost 11 sacks and a rare #4 draft choice from last year's D-Line. An already porous defense could not afford that loss.
You can't play a strong Bronco team with that many deficiencies. By the way, Boise St. QB Kellen Moore had a sub-par game last week vs. Nevada. It won't happen again this week.
In my opinion, there are only two options in this game: Boise St., or, stay away from the game. I would never invest hard-earned cash on Fresno St in this kind of matchup. I'll take option #1 and recommend the Boise St Broncos in tonight's ESPN contest.
