Fresno took the lead back with a 32-yard field goal but did it thanks to help of defensive back Omar Cross who recovered a muffed punt after a quick three and out with 0:03 seconds left before halftime to put the score 17-14.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL FINAL MOUNTAINEERS, WELCOME TO BIG 12 FOOTBALL! By Rece Davis ESPN.com Morgantown, WV-- Linebacker William Chance jumped around with his teammates in taunting fashion as the clock hit zero, handing out high-fives along the way to a line of adoring fans who made the long trip to Morgantown and had yet another reason to love him.Chance has the Kansas State Wildcats BCS hopes still alive with a 65-28 dominating performance, that statement is sure to keep them in the BCS top 10 as the poll comes out this week. Chance picked off two passes returning both in the first quarter putting Kansas State up quick 24-0 and never looking back. By halftime it was 45-7 and the boo's started to pour in for a Mountaineer team who had high hopes of winning the Big 12 title but losses to Texas and now Kansas State have them on the outside looking. TOP 25 HEADLINES
By Kirk Herbstriet, ESPN.com ESPN STUDIOS-- With the BCS coming out tomorrow night strong cases were made this weekend by players as well as teams. Kansas State made the most noise with their 40-point win over West Virginia. The Mountaineers who had it all going for them on the national stage at home really squandered a opportunity to impress the pollster's. Every week turns into a hard fought grind and teams like Notre Dame and Fresno Start almost found out the hard way. #4 Notre Dame struggled big time especially quarterback R. Garcia who was 12 of 31 passing, thanks to an opportunistic defense the Irish was able to hold off BYU. For Fresno State, they showed despite being undefeated with a 8-0 record they just aren't there yet. They had a great offensive game from sophomore quarterback Chase Kelly throwing for well over 300 yards. But they couldn't pull away from a Wyoming team who ranks at the bottom at about every NCAA category you can name. Then you have the Clemson's the Florida State's and the Michigan State's who had a chance to not only stay in the conference raise to but to stay in prime bowl position and they failed. Most disappointingly was the Spartans from Michigan State who was getting hot with a 3-game winning streak but that 38-point loss hurt. College football is a emotional rollar coaster, only the strong survive. |

BULLDOG NATION FRESNO STATE IS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT IMPROVING THAN THEIR UNDEFEATED RECORD
FRESNO, CA -- Head coach Robert Goss wasn't as excited as he should have been with Chase Kelly's uncharacteristic performance in his team's most recent game. Instead, he was displeased with his teams rushing attack. "Fortunately our pass game came to life a little bit," Goss said. " But I care more about the run than the pass game, because I know we'll get that figured out, so I think we need to improve there." They should have an excellent chance to perfect their passing game against New Mexico (2-5) with receiver James Watkins. The sophomore was got on the field after a William Baker leg injury and made his presence felt almost immediately, the 6-foot-1 target returned to practice this week shrugging off last week's performance. "That was last week, its time to get better this week and prepare for New Mexico." With him opposite of Peters and Fernandez this gives Kelly and the Bulldogs another vertical threat to stretch this defense and help out a run game that never was for Fresno last week. --LOOKING AT NEW MEXICO-- New Mexico started this season off 0-4 before a win at Texas State a new Division 1 football program. In fact the Lobo's are 2-1 in their last three games. with the exception of blowout losses to Texas and Boise New Mexico has been competitive in all other games. Led running back M. Rogers and receiver K. Bennett, quarterback T. White has had some big games getting them the ball. The problem lies with the Lobo's on defense giving up over 413 yards per game. That has them ranked 112 in the country. With no real playmakers on defense to force pressure or take the ball away the offense has had to do more. HEADLINES

ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY PRESENTED BY HOME DEPOT #4 IRISH HEAD TO NORMAN! BCS OPENS WITH SOONERS AT THE TOP SPOT By Brad Nessler ESPN.COM Norman, Okla I-- What way to open the BCS portion of the season than to have national title contenders head to head as #4 Notre Dame travels to #1 Oklahoma. A lot is at stake, typically from here on out a lost could ruin a whole season. But with Oklahoma being as dominant as last years Alabama a loss could barely knock them out of the top 3. Notre Dame has the luck of the Irish on their side however at one point during a four game straight the Irish knocked off four consecutive ranked teams. Notre Dame's R.. Garcia will have to contend with OU's #6 rated defense, if Garcia can limit his mistakes this could be a barn burner, Ou's quarterback however rarely makes mistakes with a 17/4 touchdown to interception ration. The Sooners look to stay dominate in this one. BCS TOP 10
Heisman Race 1. Curtis Harris HB - Wisconsin
2. Nate Gray QB - Arkansas
3. Was Matt Sears RB Georgia until a season ending injury 4. Bill Wright HB - Fresno State
5. Paul Huggins WR - North Carolina State

AS EXPECTED! BULLDOGS GET SEASONS SECOND SHUTOUT WITH 41-0 WIN OVER NEW MEXICO
Albuquerque, NM (AP) -- Bill Wright rushed for 90 yards but had career day returning punts returning two to the house as Fresno shut out New Mexico, Saturday. The Bulldogs (9-0, 5-0 MWC) jumped out to a 24-0 lead in the first half, with touchdown passes of 70 and 24 yards from quarterback Chase Kelly to Miller and Fernandez. Mike Brooks would close the half out with a 33 yard sprint down the sideline. Kelly would finish 11-17 for 225 yards and one interception. Spelling Wright, Brooks gained 70 yards on just 5 carries. The third quarter saw Wright, a newly named Heisman candidate return his first punt 61 yards getting crushing blocks as he raced past Lobo defenders. He would get his 2nd in the 4th quarter when he cut all the way across the fiel before diving into the end zone getting swarmed by his teammates. Not to many bright spots for New Mexico (2-6, 1-3) as Quarterback T. White was 10 of 20 for just 82 yards getting picked off in the fourth quarter by Fresno free safety Dan Marshall. The Bulldogs were all over the place as LB Tim Washington had a game high 7 tackles. DT J. Kearney would record 2.0 of the four sacks for the Bulldogs as they held New Mexico to just 110 yards of total offense and 2 of 10 on third downs. Next up for Fresno State is a home game vs Hawaii.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL FINAL
LUCK ON THEIR SIDE! By Rece Davis ESPN.com Norman, Okla-- In a hard fought National Championship type feel to it the Notre Dame fighting Irish went into Norman Oklahoma and took down the Giant known as the Sooners. Notre Dame's quarterback R. Garcia was knocked out of the game early in the 2nd quarter but Nash came in and saved the day giving Notre Dame the 21-14 lead heading into the 4th quarter after a 44 yard touchdown pass to Cooper. Three forced turnovers in the fourth quarter including huge interceptions by Taylor and Ham helped the Irish cling to a 24-17 win. TOP 25 HEADLINES
Weekend observations By Kirk Herbstriet, ESPN.com ESPN STUDIOS-- Could that possibly have been just round one between Notre Dame and Oklahoma who isn't expected to drop to far in the polls with a tough loss to the Irish. The Irish, who have played in hard fought games this season just know how to win. Garcia gets knocked out and Nash comes in and saves Face. This could be their year, but a date with destiny as in USC awaits them in 4 weeks. Let's not forget about how Wisconsin is rolling through the Big Ten, as all games seem competitive Wisconsin's games are strack smack you in the mouth move out my way, and Heisman candidate C. Harris continues to impress us on the ground slowly becoming a clear favorite. But what about the other Heisman prospect from Arkansas? N. Gray has the Razorbacks at #2 in the land they are seemingly running through the SEC with another sharp performance this time against Ole Miss as he went 22-30 for 217 yards and 2 touchdowns. The sleepers or BCS busters are slowly coming to the front of the line, Fresno State the favorite to bust this year is undefeated at 9-0, their secpnd best start in school history. Boise is lurking as well as a 7-1 Utah team who has given USC their only loss, but Nevada is a upset win over Fresno State away from joining the party, the Wolfpack have impressed again today and their 8-1 record will be more respected with a win over the Bulldogs in 2 weeks. |
