‘Dogs go bowling

For the second time this season, Fresno State will be playing in Boise.

This time, however, the ‘Dogs will be trying to bury the demons of a 51-0 beatdown on the blue turf in the uDrove Humanitarian Bowl.

On Sunday Fresno State accepted its bid to play in the bowl game and will face Northern Illinois. The Huskies finished the regular season 10-3 but fell to Miami (OH) in the Mid-American Conference Championship game on Friday. They were undefeated in regular-season conference play before the Redhawks snapped the Huskies’ nine-game winning streak.

Northern Illinois has a potent offensive attack, averaging 446 yards per game to go along with 38 points per game.

“Last time we were able to go to the Humanitarian Bowl we were victorious,” Chris Carter said. “We’re going to be playing a different team; we’re just not going to worry about the field, just the team.”
