Previewing the Fresno State Bulldogs
Since the start of the summer, a lot seems to have happened at Fresno State - even though they haven't played a game. Last week, Fresno State head coach Tim DeRuyter named redshirt freshman Chason Virgil the starting quarterback as expected. But the cast of characters changed quite a bit over the last three months. Sophomore Kilton Anderson had shoulder surgery while Ford Childress left the program. Cal's Zach Kline pursued a graduate transfer in July, while Christian Rossi moved across town from Fresno City College, creating a new competition at quarterback that Virgil won. Not only is he the starting quarterback, but he also was elected team captain, despite only playing in parts of three games in college.
