Offense was the flavor of the day Saturday, and CSU had plenty of it to keeps its hopes for bowl eligibility alive. Led by 277 rushing yards from the trio of Dalyn Dawkins, Jasen Oden Jr. and Izzy Matthews, along an efficient performance from quarterback Nick Stevens, the Rams rolled past UNLV 49-28 on Senior Night at Hughes Stadium. On the night, Stevens completed 13 of 19 passes for 209 yards and four touchdowns, three of which went to All-American wide receiver Rashard Higgins.
In front of a rather sparse crowd of 15,641, CSU (5-5, 3-3 Mountain West) had a field day on offense totaling 535 yards.
