RJ’s take: It’s been seven years since the Rams enjoyed a winning season — Mike Bobo’s 7-6 year in 2017. This is the program that has recently produced Mackey Award winner Trey McBride, Shaq Barrett, Michael Gallup and Rashard Higgins, had a 3,460-yard passer in Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi and a First Team All-He-Down-There-Somewhere receiver in Tory Horton (96 catches, 1,136 yards, eight TDs) and still can’t break even.
Jay Norvell enters Year 3 with an 8-16 record with an EDGE in Nuer Gatkuoth who had 11.5 tackles for loss, and a safety in Henry Blackburn who had three INTS, seven tackles for loss — and a Yes, It Was Dirty Hit on Travis Hunter — last year.
Something’s gotta give.
Colorado State’s Win Total Odds: Over 5.5 (-140) Under 5.5 (+120)
