Fresno State led the Mountain West in scoring (37.9), passing (325.6) and was second in total offense (477.5) behind Wentworth and the Bulldog offensive line ... part of offensive line that allowed Fresno State to rank 17th nationally in scoring, 12th in passing and 16th in total offense ... the Bulldogs averaged 6.2 yards per play and 12.0 yards per completion behind the offensive line ... blocked for running back Robbie Rouse, who tied the MW record with nine 100-yard rushing games and quarterback Derek Carr who set a new MW record with 4,104 passing yards ...

    2010 (Redshirt Freshman): Played in nine games mostly on special teams. A big, physical lineman who has a great future in the program ... filled in admirably at guard and tackle when the Dogs were decimated by injuries in the latter part of the season ... made his first career start against No. 17 Nevada and played well in the Dogs' 35-34 loss.
