FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- Colorado State is no Michigan.
But for an Arkansas Razorbacks team in the infant stages of rebuilding under first-year Coach Chad Morris, the substitute game on the schedule today -- after the Wolverines pulled the plug on a home-and-home series that would have begun in Ann Arbor, Mich., on Sept. 1 -- is challenge enough.
The Razorbacks (1-0) will play 5,003 feet in their first road game under Morris against an opponent that will feel backed into a corner after an 0-2 start.
"Traveling on the road against a tough opponent, their backs against the wall and they're well-coached, they're gonna be ready to go," Morris said.
