Bulldogs to face Colorado State

The opponent has been chosen.

When Fresno State made the announcement that they were going to play in the New Mexico Bowl on December 20th, the only question left to answer was who were they going to face. Well, that question was answered on Sunday....Colorado State.

The Rams are coming off a 6-6 season (4-4 in conference) under first year head coach Steve Fairchild and although it may not be the kind of year Fairchild was hoping for, he says they're headed in the right direction. "We still have a lot of work to do here at Colorado State, in all areas of our program, but this is obviously a step in the right direction, and a tremendous reward for our 17 seniors, who've worked extremely hard during their time here in Fort Collins."

It will be the 12th meeting all time for these two teams with Colorado holding a 6-5 series lead against Fresno State. The game is scheduled to kick off at 11:35am PST and will be televised by ESPN.
