What to Know
The Fresno State Bulldogs and the San Diego State Aztecs are set to square off in a Mountain West matchup at 10:30 p.m. ET Oct. 30 at Dignity Health Sports Park. These two teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.
Fresno State sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 34-32 win over the Nevada Wolf Pack last week. Fresno State’s RB Jordan Mims was one of the most active players for the squad, rushing for one TD and 134 yards on 23 carries in addition to snatching one receiving TD.
Special teams collected ten points for the Bulldogs. K Cesar Silva booted in two field goals, the longest a 46-yarder in the fourth quarter, which ultimately accounted for the difference in the contest.
Meanwhile, San Diego State didn’t have too much breathing room in their matchup with the Air Force Falcons last week, but they still walked away with a 20-14 victory. No one had a standout game offensively for San Diego State, but they got scores from RB Kaegun Williams and RB Chance Bell.
This next game is expected to be close, with Fresno State going off at just a 2.5-point favorite. The odds have been favorable for them against the spread on the road this season, even if it’s been tough sledding overall. They are 3-1 ATS in away games but only 4-3 all in all.
Fresno State is now 6-2 while the Aztecs sit at 7-0. A pair of offensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: The Bulldogs are 156th worst in the nation in rushing yards per game, with only 129.1 on average. San Diego State has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the game with the 219th fewest passing yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 135.7 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
