CSU football notes: defense eases concerns with 6 sacks

FORT COLLINS — At the beginning of fall camp, Mike Bobo was worried.

The Colorado State head coach hadn't seen a pass rush develop during 15 spring practices, nor had it showed up during the first scrimmage of the fall. Meanwhile, the defensive staff kept tinkering for solutions.

"That's what the fall was there for, to work on what you need to work on," Colorado State defensive end SteveO Michel said. "We worked on it, we put an emphasis on it and we showed up."

The Rams sure did, and mostly across the defensive line, producing six sacks in a 65-13 whipping of Savannah State on Saturday at Lubick Field at Hughes Stadium.
