Fresno State Name Error Overshadows Bowl Game

During the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, ESPN mistakenly altered Fresno State Bulldogs' name to 'Bulldongs' on several graphics, creating an unexpected and humorous incident that overshadowed the game. Fresno State initially led 13-3 against Northern Illinois, but the Huskies staged a comeback, eventually winning 28-20 in double overtime. The game featured several missed field goals by Bulldogs' kicker Dylan Lynch and decisive plays by Huskies' quarterback Josh Holst, who led his team to victory. The blunder became a viral sensation on social media, with many fans joking about the error. This game marked the end of interim coach Tim Skipper's time with Fresno State, as Matt Entz is set to take over as the head coach. Northern Illinois celebrated their second consecutive bowl win, capping off a resilient season.
