FORT COLLINS — Colorado State will face Marshall out of Conference USA in the New Mexico Bowl, though the annoucement has officially to be made by the game organizers or the school.
It is the only fit remaining for the Rams after the annoucement San Diego State would face Army in the Armed Forces Bowl, and the earlier annoucement of Utah State heading to Arizona. Officially, the Rams had to be placed in a game before the Aggies were.
The Dec. 16 game (2:30 p.m.; ESPN) will mark the first meeting between the two teams.
