Result: Loss
Colorado vs. Colorado State 9:30 ET
Rams over Buffaloes- Neither of these clubs are expected to shine through the season but the way Colorado State was manhandled by Hawaii 43-34 Saturday night surrendering 617 total yards makes me wonder. Now, that is an incredible sum of yards to surrender by a team that went off a 17-point favorite. Yet, after trailing 37-7 the Rams had the heart to fight back and close on a 28-6 rush. And further still is the fact that Colorado State gained 653 yards themselves including 537 passing by K.J. Carta-Samuels (Washington graduate transfer) who had five passing TD's. State should have no trouble getting 'up' for their intra-state rival and probably were caught looking ahead last week. The Buffaloes are at Nebraska next week and could get caught 'peeking' and get caught here. Take the points and the RAMS!
