What’s Going To Happen

Okay, ha ha. What did you do with the UNLV we all knew and loved all season?

In one of the stunners of 2019, a UNLV team that did absolutely nothing after wiping out Southern Utah from the FCS world managed to go on the road and rip apart Vanderbilt.

The Rebel team that got its doors blown off by everyone from Arkansas State to Wyoming destroyed an SEC team.

It was fun while it lasted.

Oddly enough, the two best FBS rushing performances by the Rebels this season were against the Power Five programs – hitting 200 yards against Northwestern and Vandy – but the big play passing of Kenyon Oblad last week helped, too.

None of that will work against Fresno State.

This isn’t the Bulldog team of the last two seasons, but coming off a rough outing and a blowout loss to Air Force, it’s finally back home with a run D that was more than fine against everyone else.

The Rebel team that couldn’t stop turning the ball over for most of the season – and with the painfully inefficient passing game – will return as the Bulldogs start to show a little bit of that D from the previous two years, and the ground game will dominate from the start.
