  5. Bulldog stadium facts • One of the most complete and aesthetically pleasing stadiums in the Western Athletic Conference, Bulldog Stadium has served as the home of Fresno State football since the 1980 season. Entering its 25th season of hosting the Bulldogs, the facility has established itself as one of the most difficult places to win for visiting teams. • Fresno State has gone 122-30-2 at Bulldog Stadium since 1980, good for a winning percentage of nearly 80 percent. Even more impressive is the team's success since 1999, during which time the Bulldogs have gone 30-4. Included in that record are victories over Oregon State (twice), Colorado State and California. Since Pat Hill took over as head coach in 1997, Fresno State is 38-7 (.844)

Under the direction of head coach Pat Hill, Fresno State's academic reputation continues to grow.The most recent announcement of the NCAA Academic Progress Rate scores shows the Dogs continue to lead the pack. The Bulldog football program again performed well in the APR scoring, up three points over two years ago to a 948 score, and well ahead of the national average for public schools (931). Compared to other schools in the region, the Bulldogs continue to set the standard. Fresno State's APR score is better than seven of the eight WAC schools and only two Pac-10 public schools scored better.

  7. Academic Achievers • In addition to setting a high-standard for team APR scores, the Bulldog program continues to produced Academic All-WAC performers at a record clip.The Bulldog football team continues to produce high numbers of quality student-athletes with 14 named to the Academic All-WAC team this past season. In the fall of 2007, the Bulldogs had a record 16 football players selected. • Under Pat Hill's guidance, the Bulldogs have produced a league-best 123 Academic All-WAC players, 47 more than the second closest school in the league.

  9. Get your seats • With the 2009 Bulldog football season a few short months away, the Fresno State Athletics Department has approximately 1,900 premium seats remaining for sale in Bulldog Stadium. To purchase these seats, a Bulldog Foundation Membership is required and the good news for fans is that the required membership levels have been reduced by 20% for this seating area. All of the premium seats come with chair-backed seating, many of them in the red seat section, and are located in prime locations on both the east and west sidelines.Some of the prime seats became available when the athletics department decided to move the Bulldog team to the east sideline for the 2009 season. Previously the visiting team used that sideline and a block of premium seats were made available to fans of the visiting teams. That is no longer the case, as the visiting section has been relocated, freeing up premium seating for Bulldog fans.
