The Rebels started the game with a field goal on their opening drive. The drive was 10 plays that went 51 yards down the field. Like it was said in the preview for this game, they started with a run heavy offense.
Fresno State then took the ball down the field on their first drive and scored. Their drive was only six plays and was ended by a 33-yard TD from QB Jake Haener to WR Jalen Moreno-Cropper. The duo is one of the best in the Mountain West and something that the Rebels need to put a stop to.
