ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Nothing came easy.
A Colorado State offense accustomed to fast starts was held scoreless in the first. A defense burned by the pass a week ago was slashed with big running plays Friday night at New Mexico at Dreamstyle Stadium.
But by the end of the night, the Rams were still unbeaten in Mountain West play, courtesy of a 27-24 victory, and coach Mike Bobo will have no issue with the result.
CSU improved to 6-2 on the year, becoming bowl eligible, remaining 4-0 and atop the Mountain Division standings.
