FORT COLLINS – Very rarely does a team’s offense improve soon after its starting quarterback goes down with an injury. Ironically, that’s just what happened with Colorado State when Collin Hill was sidelined with a season-ending injury earlier this month.
Rams’ head coach Mike Bobo had no choice than to lean on his offensive line, a trio of running backs and a backup quarterback that looked nothing short of abysmal in the season opener.
The UNLV game last week may be the blueprint for the CSU offense.
Nick Stevens finished 21-of-28 for 237 with two touchdowns and no interceptions, a performance that Bobo wants his quarterback to build on moving forward.
