Fresno State stifles Miami (OH) offense, 18-3, in Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl

Key Highlights

• Instead, the RedHawks fell cold, falling 18-3 to Fresno State without recording a single touchdown. The opening kickoff featured pure electricity as Snoop — mid-interview — actually caught the ball booted off the tie by Miami kickoff specialist Kellan McLaughlin.
• But after that viral moment, the game turned into a low-scoring defensive slugfest deprived of highlights.
• Miami struck first with a 33-yard field goal by First Team All-MAC kicker Dom Dzioban, but that kick stood as the RedHawks’ final snap from the red zone.
• Miami never possessed the ball inside the 20 for the final 54 minutes and 9 seconds of action. The RedHawks’ defense held firm and only allowed one touchdown — a 2-yard touchdown pass with 11:12 remaining in the fourth quarter.
• Due to a bend-don’t-break mentality, Fresno State only notched field goals for the majority of the contest.
