The Bulldogs looked complexly out gunned in their week 1 bout with USC, and will hope that the end result of their matchup at Utah this week will turn out much differently.

Quarterback Brandon Connette was limited to just 68 yards, while being picked off three times, while Bakersfield High School incoming freshman Brian Burrell tossed for 92 yards and an interception.

The only thing that kept the Bulldogs from being totally shut out was running back Marteze Waller who rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns against the Trojans.

Perhaps the biggest problem for Fresno State on Saturday, however, was an all out implosion of the Bulldogs’ defense, that surrendered an eye-popping 701 yards and 52 points, including 424 yards through the air.

Utah

Meanwhile, Utah (1-0) blew out Idaho State in their season opener, rolling up 56 points and 589 yards behing the play of quarterback Travis Wilson who threw for 265 yards and a touchdown.

Also chipping in were DeVontae Booker, Bubba Poole and Troy McCormick, who all took turns running the ball.

Defensively ,the Utes allowed just 14 points on 337 yards, and were led by Nate Orchard who racked up eight tackles including 2.5 sacks.

Week 2 NCAA Football Spread Prediction

While Utah played against a much lesser opponent, the Bulldogs didn’t really show what it takes to play with the big boys.

Utah is 9-4 against the spread in their last 13 home games, while Fresno State is 1-4 against the spread against a team with a winning record.

After seeing Fresno State in week one I have to believe the Utes take care of business in this one, wining by single touchdown.

Score Prediction: 4* Play on Utah 31, Fresno State 24
