confused:
Fresno St.'s first game is against a Wisconsin team that was embarassed last year by this little WAC School. The Badgers are certainly looking to avenge themselves from last year's defeat,
but are they up to the task? Wisconsin has 8 returning starters
on offense, including Bollinger the quarterback, and Anthony Davis, who may very well become the best running back in college football if he doesn't opt to turn pro before his college career ends (I believe he led the Big 10 last year as a true Freshman). They also have an All-American at WR and TE and most of their line coming back. The Badgers are solid offensively,
but must replace 9 defensive positions.
The Bulldogs have some huge shoes to fill at the Quarterback
position, but they do have 7 returning starters on offense, including their entire front line, which allowed only 25 sacks last year. The Bulldogs also return 8 starters on defense, and I believe they have a Freshman recruit at Safety that they're high on. Did I mention they also have their Kicker and Punter returning? The Kicker led the nation with FGM last year. Do you remember the Colorado St. game, where the kicker (Asparuhov),
makes a 48 yrd. field goal with 4 seconds in regulation time, and wins the game in OT with a 43 yarder. Last year, 5 Players were drafted into the NFL. We're not talking about a Florida school, where they have football factories, but this itty bitty little WAC school. The Sr.'s of last year (David Carr & Company) were the
first recruiting class of Head Coach Pat Hill, who's kind of a Maverick. He recruits accademically challenged kids, who can't go to the big schools because of grades, or SAT scores, and has developed a tutorial program for these kids. I think Pat Hill, is the real deal, and I think Fresno St. will make a statement (again)
this year. As for this game, if the Bulldogs don't win it straight up, they should cover the 7 points.
