Former Central East linebacker making his mark on the Fresno City College defense
Former Central East standout linebacker Aiden Chavez has developed into a coach on the field. From his days playing under Kyle Biggs through the end of the Tony Caviglia era, Chavez has learned from some of the best coaches in the area. Those experiences have helped shape him into a consistent tackler for the Fresno City College football team. Chavez has recorded 43 tackles, including five tackles for loss, and two sacks this season. The Bee caught up with Chavez to discuss last week’s loss to College of the Sequoias, what the team learned from the setback and how he has continued to develop as a player. Question: What was the biggest thing that went wrong against COS, and what did the film tell you afterward? Aiden Chavez : The biggest thing that went wrong against COS was how we practiced and how lackadaisical we were on game day. The film afterwards told us that we can’t just show up and play and expect to win after a bad week of practice and not be locked in on game day. Q: Was there a particular moment in that game when you felt the momentum shift? AC: I felt that from

Derek Carr impressed with Fresno State QB Jayden Mandal's growth after tough start
Former Fresno State and Las Vegas Raiders star Derek Carr likes what he has seen from Bulldogs quarterback Jayden Mandal, who has continued to improve after a difficult season opener against USC. Mandal delivered his best performance as Fresno State’s starting quarterback against Oregon State on Oct. 31, throwing for 202 yards and two touchdowns while adding 34 yards and two scores on the ground in the Bulldogs’ 38-22 victory at Valley Children’s Stadium. “I just think it’s awesome that the kid from the Valley is playing quarterback for our home team,” Carr said. “We all want, in this day and age, greatness to happen immediately. He had a tough game against USC, and (people) think the world’s over. The world’s not over. That’s a good football team, and in his first start, he’s shown improvement since.” Fresno State coach Matt Entz has continued to show confidence in Mandal, a former Buchanan High standout, sticking with him through the challenges of his first season as the Bulldogs’ starting quarterback. Mandal has responded by putting together increasingly productive performances. He has thrown for 1,595 yards and 10 touchdowns with just two interceptions.

Fresno State reverts to old habits in ‘frustrating' 17-10 loss to Utah State
Old habits returned to the Fresno State football team Saturday night. Those habits included slow starts and offensive inconsistencies, and they resulted in a disappointing 17-10 loss to Utah State at Maverik Stadium in Logan, Utah, in a Pac-12 Conference matchup. Just how bad was it for Fresno State? The Bulldogs went into halftime with only 73 total yards and minus-2 rushing yards. It was a complete reversal from last weekend, when Fresno State’s running game overwhelmed Oregon State in a 39-28 victory. The Bulldogs praised Utah State’s defense heading into the game. However, they expected to perform well despite playing at an elevation of approximately 4,000 feet. Utah State entered the game with the top-rated defense in the Pac-12, and it showed why Saturday night. Fresno State (5-4 overall, 2-3 Pac-12) opened the second half by picking up several first downs and eventually faced third-and-goal from the 14-yard line. However, the Bulldogs couldn’t get into the end zone and settled for a field goal, trailing 14-3. Fresno State never found an opportunity to take control of the game. Quarterback Jayden Mandal faced constant pressure from the Aggies’ defense. Some of his passes sailed over the heads of wide receivers
