The Bulldogs, it seems, have Fresno City’s number — and that number is 3.

The College of San Mateo Bulldogs defense was indeed on display in a 17-3 victory in a battle of unbeaten teams Saturday at Ratcliffe Stadium in Fresno.

For the second straight year, the No.2-ranked Bulldogs (4-0 overall) held Fresno City to a mere field goal.
