#211 ASA PLAY ON 8* Fresno State -4 over Washington State, Saturday at 3:30 PM ET - Washington State opened as a 2 point favorite in this game and it has swing to FSU by more than a FG. We agree with the move and feel there is still some value on the Bulldogs. WSU ended the regular season with a 7-5 overall record but did not beat a single team with a winning record and finished below .500 in the Pac 12. Their best win of the season was vs a down Wisconsin team who was 6-6 on the year and in that game the Cougars were outgained by 150 yards and had 12 fewer first downs. If we throw out their 24-17 win vs FCS Idaho, the record of the 6 FBS teams Wazzou beat was 24-48. Fresno is 9-4 this season but we feel they are better than their record. That’s because they played a number of games without their starting QB Haener who is an NFL caliber signal caller. He’s thrown for almost 9,000 career yards with 66 TD’s and just 18 picks. When Haener was able to play from start to finish, the Bulldogs were 9-1 with their only loss coming vs Oregon State 35-32 in a game where the Beavers scored a TD as time expired to get the tight win. FSU outgained the Beavs by almost 100 yards in that game, an Oregon State team that finished 6-3 in the Pac 12 and beat Washington St by 2 TD’s. Fresno comes in at the top of their game winning 8 straight games, covering 6 of those. The are facing a Wazzou team that will be without 3 of their top 4 WR’s, 3 starting LB’s, and both their offensive and defensive coordinators have moved on. The Bulldogs are jacked to get another shot at a Pac 12 team and we like them to cover this one.
