History will be made on Christmas Eve as the Cougars face the Fresno State Bulldogs in the Hawai’i Bowl. Given this will be the first meeting between the two schools, one team will get to start singing “Mele Kalikimaka” with a 1-0 all time record against its opponent come game’s end.

Before the office deserted for winter break, The Cougar’s sports staff made its predictions for the final game of the 2017 football season.

Fresno State is the clear favorite in this matchup. In conference play, the Bulldogs won most of their games comfortably minus a hiccup against UNLV and a close loss in the championship game against Boise State.
