QUICK LOOK
- With a win on Saturday, Fresno State would finish the season with a 6-0 mark at home in 2023. It would be the first time since 2018 that the Bulldogs saw a perfect home record, and the 21st in program history.
- Fresno State will currently honor 12 seniors on Saturday - all 12 have exhausted their eligibility. A full list will be unveiled closer to game day.
- Fresno State does not leave the state of California for the remainder of the 2023 regular season games. With one home game, and road test at San Diego State, the Bulldogs do not travel more than 350 miles in games in November.
- As we approach the home stretch of the 2023 season, each game remains important, and the games in November are always ones to remember. As Fresno State head coach (four seasons), Jeff Tedford has a 13-6 record in the month of November including two undefeated seasons in the month (2017, 2022).Â
- Fresno State baseball legends Aaron Judge and Mike Batesole will be honored with a jersey retirement celebration during halftime of the Fresno State football game on November 18 at Valley Children's Stadium, followed by a formal jersey retirement ceremony the next day, Sunday, November 19, at 1 p.m. at Pete Beiden Field at Bob Bennett Stadium.
- Any time Fresno State gains one turnover, it gains at least one more. The Bulldogs have had six games with two or more turnovers this season, and four games with zero including last week at San Jose State.Â
- Keene has connected with nine different receivers for touchdowns this season. All but two players with a catch have recorded at least one receiving touchdown.Â
- Fresno State has eight different players with at least one interception. The eight different players with an interception is the most for the Bulldogs since the 2019 team had eight. The 2018 team had nine.Â
- Malik Sherrod had Fresno State's first kickoff return for a touchdown since 2008 against Boise State (Nov. 4), returning the final kickoff of the first half 95 yards to the house as time expired before halftime. Fresno State had 647 kickoffs without a return for a touchdown until that Nov. 4 game. Sherrod had the 11th kickoff return for a touchdown in Fresno State program history.
- Kicker Dylan Lynch is riding a streak of eight consecutive made field goals, and a streak of 10 games with at least one field goal made.Â
- Lynch is the first Bulldog kicker to have two FGs of 50+ yards in a single season since Kevin Goessling in 2010.
