Remembering Hughes: 1960s

As Colorado State builds a new on-campus stadium, the 47-year run of Hughes Stadium comes to a close this season. For each of the six home games, the school is honoring each decade it served the football team.

Record at Hughes: 3-7, losing the first six games the team played at Hughes. The team went 31-69-1 over the course of the decade.

Coaches: Just one, Mike Lude, who was fired after four close losses in a 4-6 campaign. Overall, Lude was 29-51-1 in eight seasons with a big win over No.
