Game Recap
On Saturday, the Colorado State Rams were out to avenge their 52-21 loss to the Boise State Broncos from their previous meeting last November, but they had no such luck. The Rams fell to Boise State 28-19. Colorado State was up 13 to nothing at the end of the first quarter but couldn't hold on to the lead.
Boise State QB Hank Bachmeier was slinging it as he passed for three TDs and 253 yards on 32 attempts. Near the top of the highlight reel was Bachmeier's 51-yard TD bomb to TE Tyneil Hopper in the fourth quarter. WR Octavius Evans also deserves a shout-out for his two TDs.
