The New Mexico Bowl kicks off the 2009 college football bowl season with the Fresno State Bulldogs facing the Wyoming Cowboys. While this is not the most exciting match up it should provide a fairly entertaining game.
FRESNO STATE OFFENSE vs WYOMING DEFENSE
Fresno State is 7th in total rushing and will run the ball very effectively against the 88th ranked rush defense. Wyoming gives up 169 yards per game on the ground while Fresno gains 231 yards per game. Also, Fresno State is #10 in time of possession holding the ball for 32min19sec on average. I think with Fresno’s superior rushing attack they will keep Wyoming’s anemic offense off the field while putting points on the board.
WYOMING OFFENSE vs FRESNO STATE DEFENSE
Wyoming ranks as the 112th total offense. They are 86th nationally in rush offense and 103rd in Passing offense. Fresno State is also terrible on Defense ranking 97th in total defense, 111th in rush defense but 32nd in Pass Defense. I see Wyoming falling behind early in this game and being forced to throw the ball to get back into it. After a few three and outs Fresno will start open a sizable lead that I just do not see Wyoming being able to overcome.
PICK: Fresno State -10.5
