Not really 100% true.
Cold weather is going to make it a lot harder for Carr to pass the ball.
They can't run the ball.
We can. Hell we are 22nd in the country in rush yards....
Not only that, but they are down in sunny warm Cali. If we go fast tempo against those guys on defense right away, their lungs won't be adjusted to the cold, or the elevation.
If it comes down to it, we can just have Wick and Smith run the ball with the occasional screen by Smith and move the ball all night on them.

LOL That was almost 20 years ago. :rofl:
If 966 combined yards and 68 points is "decent" defense, you're right, you are confused...BeaverPoke said:Our D confuses me. It is so bad yes, but they did pretty decent against Nebraska in Lincoln. They did decent against NM. But they also got absolutely blown up by CSU against the run.
I think if it is so cold and windy that Carr can't throw it, Fresno will have to run the ball as much as CSU did to win the game.
Really, though we do just need it to be as cold and miserable as possible for that game.
Warm weather, and Fresno smokes us.
