Golden Gophers’ size, speed a major test for Rams offense

FORT COLLINS – Collin Hill and the Colorado State Rams offense will have their hands full on Saturday. This University of Minnesota team features plenty of defensive physicality and talent – both staples for teams in the Big Ten.

“They’re the best defensive team we’ve played since I’ve been here,” said offensive coordinator Will Friend.

The Golden Gophers boast eye-opening size and speed on the defensive line that, frankly, CSU doesn’t go up against very often. It’s why Friend and head coach Mike Bobo are trying some different things during practice to replicate their week 4 opponent.
