Colorado State (0-0) vs. Savannah State (0-0)
Saturday, Hughes Stadium, 2 p.m.
From the Rams — Receiver Rashard Higgins is coming off an All-American season after 96 catches for 1,750 yards and 17 touchdowns, and Ram fans want to see what the junior has for an encore. It is up to sophomore Nick Stevens to keep the flow going as he makes his first career start, doing so running an offense he's had six months to learn. Defensively, the Rams are out to prove they are a more aggressive unit.
From the Tigers — Savannah State went 0-12 last year with a young roster.
