I read this comment before watching and was like can't wait to see that and during the whole ordeal I totally forgot about this comment and was thinking on that last drive damn that's a tough son of a bitch and was like I wonder if anyone said anything about how badass and tough he is lol..just thought I'd share that.
Bulldogs vs USC got me interested in college football, and the following year, Cal at Oregon and UCLA's "cardiac kid" nickname got me watching NCAAF ever since. CA Pac-12 teams do not like playing Fresno State--always a potential spoiler.
Missed two bad tackles on that final drive that would have run some clock and made it more difficult on Fresno. Especially that first catch. Should have been five yards and a running clock, instead it was a first down out of bounds. They blew it.
Fresno State has always been a very dangerous team to play. Even when USC was in their dynasty run with Reggie Bush Fresno State pushed them to the limit. They are not a cupcake.
I was at that USC-Fresno State game in 2005 when Fresno State was leading the #1 ranked USC 42-41 in the 4th quarter. But, Reggie Bush became Superman to seal a victory 50-42 with 513 all-purpose yards. That was another legendary game.
I am so salty UW gave that starting job to Eason in 2019. As excited as I was for Eason, every time Haener got playing time, I loved his pure gamer mentality and the zip on his throws. He was always so hungry for success. What heart from him. Really happy he’s doing so well at Fresno State.
@@rom7633 I don’t think a lot of casual fans knew what we had in Haener. But the die-hards had an idea. Once Eason said he was transferring home, I knew Haener’s chance to start was all but gone. I get Petersen said it was an ‘open’ competition in camp in 2019, but come on, the hometown 5 star recruit with an absolute cannon transfers home to UW, there was zero chance of Eason not starting. I was even on the hype train. But I still never believed Haener was ever given a fair shot, and I really liked almost everything I saw from him in scrimmages, and his brief appearances. He commanded the huddle so well, had the zip on throws, and played hungry. After a few games I noticed Eason played like a dude who thought his shit didn’t stink, and was surprised when his rocket arm didn’t fix every problem. But alas, hindsight is 20/20 and Haener ended up in a great situation. Great for him.
Yeah, if Haener stayed.....HE would have had a TERRIBLE WR group that ran bad routes, cut routes short, didnt run through routes and dropped passes left and right, and couldnt block to save their lives. Just like Eason was stuck with. oh, AND Bush Hamdan running the shots! Could Eason have been any more hamstrung? hes still had 23 and 8 for the year. Not a bad year all things considered. And Eason didnt blow 2 14 point leads that he got us against Utah and Oregon...2 games the D lost for us that could have changed the whole season. 10-3 overall 6-3 Pac 12 would have been a much better year. And Bowl. UWs WRs been trash for a few years Ross and Pettis in 16 and Pettis alone in 17 was it! McMillan may be a star, but i thought Puka was going to be too....But he peaced out like a smart guy when Lake hired Donovan!
Man Fresno State is a damn great team. If they would’ve cut their turnovers down, they would’ve beat Oregon and blown out UCLA and would be a Top 10 team right now. Salute to the Bulldogs!
Fresno has put out some quality QB’s. David Carr really never got a chance to excel in the NFL. He was thrown to the wolves in Houston behind a miserable offensive line and basically got broken apart. Derek is a top 10 QB when he gets protection and doesn’t have to try and beat the opponent 40-37.
Jaw dropped entire game. Way to go Bulldogs! to beat a top ranked team in the nation like that, not to mention the QB getting demolished, wincing in pain as he heaves dots downfield with 14 seconds left and wins the game!!
We were there too, I’m a Dogs fan but I think we were the better team, we just need to learn how to win those type of games, the UCLA was a step in the right direction. Go DOGS!
@@85jwatson I don't know about better team there's a reason we're heading toward a third straight conference championship but y'all were underrated for sure and have usually played us fairly tough over the years. Kudos!
UGA fan here. This game is Exhibit A of why college football is the best. Incredible play by both teams, high drama and storybook finish. FS's fans, not to mention Jake Haener, will have a memory to last several lifetimes. Love those bulldogs.
Wheels is the Jake Haener of creating a reader’s digest version of the best Fresno State football game they ever played and perhaps one of division one’s best games ever.. How could I not subscribe? Thanks mate
Fresno is mostly a smash mouth type of team, that's because Fresno is in the hot area in CA while Cal, Stanford, UCLA, and USC even San Diego State are in the cooler areas in CA.
This year feels like College Football is at the best it's been in a while. It really does feel like there have been some incredibly close and exciting games every week.
Interesting that Haener was drafted right before DTR. I was a little surprised (as a Saints fan) after watching this game since DTR does seem to have the livlier arm however no doubt Haener is a tough gamer and made some nice short and intermediate throws (& some not-so nice, especially when it comes to his deeper balls). Time will tell if both of this guys end up developing and we’ll certainly look back at this game in a few years
I've been a Fresno State fan for 35 years and have seen some really good teams along the way (2018 was by far their best team ever). But one thing I've noticed that never fails and a lot of other schools, even big programs struggle with is consistency at Kicker. Fresno State always has good kickers! Idk how they do it but they're always money!
This looked like it was a great game. I wish more of these west coast games were played during the day so that I could watch them. I watched the first quarter of Arizona State/Brigham Young last night before I gave up and went to bed because it didn't start until 9:45 central time.
What a game for highlights!! What a bigger upset!! I don't know if Bulldogs are just simply the best team in a few years or if UCLA just isn't as good as I thought they would be..!! Congratulations Fresno State!!
Kinda reminds me of the Raiders Ravens game. One team has a run first QB, the other a great passer, and the Fresno State QB's both pull out the wins late...
Great to see the positive FS comments. Lot of pundits saying how good UCLA looked after the LSU win talking about how this was a bad loss, as if it has nothing to do with FS just being a really good team.
Fresno State giving Mountain West Conference a ratings boost. They gave Oregon a good game and Oregon beat Ohio State and are rated #3. And now they beat a highly rated (maybe overrated) UCLA.
Didn't see this game but when I heard UCLA lost I figured that they once again we're headed for less than mediocre season after a great win against lsu.But after watching the highlights I'm very optimistic for UCLA the rest of the way even though they stopped this one.That Fresno st team is super dangerous with that qb and bunch of talented playmakers Both of these teams should be headed to bowl games and the UCLA qb is almost as lethal as the haener
UCLA does bring in some quality talent. But.......their coaching has always been suspect. The assistant coaches complain that they are not paid enough to live on the expensive Westside. So, coaching staffs are unstable. Plus, their facilities are way below par. Their practice field is built on top of a parking structure. And the field is not even 100 yards long! It's a very hard school to get in to. Just about every freshmen is an A+ student. Recently rated the top public University in the nation. Even higher than Berkeley. So, not fit for any C student-athletes. Therefore, they have too many players transfer out.
That Fresno State QB is one of the toughest SOB’s I’ve ever seen what a king and what a win Fresno State deserved it

Not a fan of either of these teams…but shout out to Haener. Dude played with guts. Absolutely inspiring.

he was suppose to be ineligible to play that year but Pete Carroll pulled some strings they even strip the heismen from him

ESPN knows nothing. They only see highlights including Stephen A Smith lol
I think FS were ranked like 63.
Fresno St ahls be 14-16 right now base on they're performance so fare
This game had the excitement of Boise State v Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl. Best game this year so far.

perfect back shoulder pass to win the game too. kids got it

@@davidhall2197 Fr they gave Oregon all they could handle
That’s exactly what we’re hoping for .. just gta keep winning & everything will take care of itself
As a FS fan, that would be great. But commissioners want to expand their brand. Teams from out of state is the way to do it.
If LSU had Fresno states QB they might have beat UCLA too. That kid was at Washington I had to look him up after the Oregon performance. Kid can play.
He torched the Bruins secondary limping with his leg strapped over his shoulder.
Mac Dalena's TD-saving tackle on the kickoff return (at 3:15) saved four points for the 'Dogs and maybe the game, too.
Knew it the moment it happened, what a Fkn play!! Delana is a beast on ST & will be a factor next season for FS at WR.

So Mario Cristobal wasn't kidding when he said Oregon had to beat "a good Fresno State team"
Go Ducks
Go dogs!!
Fresno is way better than they get credit for. Don't think Ohio State is all that though either.
Pac12 should drop Colorado and Wazzu for Fresno and SDSU at this point haha
That’s crossed my mind now and then over the years
Don't need to drop them, just become the Pac 14 🤣🤣
Yeah I’ve always thought Fresno should be a part of the PAC.
@@timmyboy2495 Boise State too

Unreal!! This is why I love sports! on any day any team can have that amazing day! On this day it was Fresno! what a game!
So much for chip kelly having the bruins back.
See ya next year.
I'll say that UCLA will finish 5-7. You can quote me on that, on November 27 when UCLA beats Cal to end their season.
Awesome game! Congratulations Fresno State!
The Fresno State QB is incredible!
Bloody hell, that was good! Haener played his socks off. Respect.
lol what does it mean when someone say "bloody hell" like what? "bloody" "hell"
Damn, that Haener kid is something else and that little running back has got some speed.
Nice to see Chip Kelly is still making Oregon look good.
I seriously hope the 49ers draft Mosby and Cropper. These guys can absolutely play.
Fresno St is tough. Ducks should be able to take care of business in Westwood in a few weeks.
I subbed after watching a couple of these couple these are the only plays I need to see in a game.
Fresno QB and Wrs have that chemistry
