Fresno State ends BSU’s streak

FRESNO, Calif. – Four years of frustration flowed away when Fresno State ended Boise State’s domination of the Bulldogs and the Western Athletic Conference.

Paul Pinegar passed for 307 yards and hit Paul Williams for two long touchdowns, and the 20th-ranked Bulldogs decisively snapped Boise State’s 31-game conference winning streak with a 27-7 victory Thursday.

Wendell Mathis ran for 121 yards and a score for Fresno State (8-1, 6-0 WAC) in its first victory over the three-time defending champions since Boise State (7-3, 5-1) joined the conference in 2001.
