Wolf Pack rides big plays past Fresno State

FRESNO, Calif. – For the most part this season, the Wolf Pack has had to grind out wins.

Nothing pretty, just blood and bruises and four- or five-yard gains at a time.

On Thursday at Fresno State, the Wolf Pack used explosive plays to grab a rare win over the Bulldogs.

Matthew Lyons returned a fumble 30 yards for a score on the game's first possession, Hasaan Henderson added a 73-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter, James Butler went 59 yards for a score in the fourth and Dameon Baber had three interceptions as Nevada beat rival Fresno State, 30-16.
