The line keeps getting pushed bigger. The line vs LSU kept getting smaller. My guess is the final margin will be around a two score victory for the home team.

I have been keeping an eye on the line as well.It opened at 11 and has stayed steady.It's currently at 10 with one sportsbook.The Dogs have the D and offense to keep this game close.

LSU is astoundingly bad.  Couldn't move the ball effectively on mcneese state.

Don't think FS will win, but i would be surprised to see a two-score game.

LSU is a poorly coached team, but still extremely talented. The game vs McNeese state had LSU sitting/resting/suspending 22 players vs them and it was essentially a rest game. The talent should have still won by more, but it is what it is.  Vegas knew the UCLA-LSU game would be close, despite unranked UCLA being barely the underdog at home. UCLA has better backs and a better OL than Oregon does, so they should be able to control the line of scrimmage on Saturday.  I expect the FSU QB play to be better than what we saw from LSU though. I'm curious to see how the attacking defense UCLA employs, fares vs you guys.

If Fresno can slow down the run they have a shot, but the Bruins have an experienced Oline and their best run game in years. Dorian Thompson runs hot and cold. If he’s hot Fresno has no chance. This is easily Chip’s best UCLA team. I think they’ll cover the spread. 

Fresno showed their capable hanging with Oregon. Haener is a good QB and will give the Bruin secondary (their weak point IMO) fits if the Dog line can give him time to throw. 

Fresno has started out with a really tough schedule. Normally I’d root for the MWC team, but I grew up in LA as a Bruin fan so hope the Bruins can continue their hot start. 

I’d watch this game for sure except dammit it’s on the PAC network. Oh wait, I’ll be at the Boise State game so wouldn’t see it live anyway.

I don't think DTR has improved much at all as a player from what fresno saw in 2018.  Everyone around him just got better.

 

Bit of a shame we drew the best UCLA team in years.   But we have a puncher's chance in pretty much any game with Haener.  I think he's significantly better at creating plays out of structure than Derek was, frankly, though obviously the complete package isn't comparable.

The mental mistakes are gone, which was the biggest flaw in his game. Still misses open receivers, but they don't hurt the same way as before, when he'd make a bad throw into triple coverage. He's not an NFL QB (maybe with a super senior season), but he is good enough for this team to be real good.

I still remember the game in 2008 when close to 15k Bulldog fans made their way to the Rose Bowl. It was a real sight to see with the caravan of Bulldog flags going over the Grapevine.

Our QB coach (Gunderson) left for UCLA this past off-season. It'll be interesting to see if he has helped DTR at all. He did a good job with Love and Starkel.

Wonder if the game time will play any part this year? I believe that game was midday? My memory is mostly shot from 2008

I was there in 2008 and it was easily at least 20k Fresno fans. Probably pushed 25k. It was insane seeing how many Fresno fans were at the Rose Bowl that game.  
 

Was there in 2018 and it was probably more closer to 8-10k. I would expect this year to be similar to 2018. 
 

The picture below doesn’t do justice. It looked very similar in the end zone on the other side.
