Colorado State 77, Nevada 66: Rams defend national ranking with second-half surge
It took longer than its fans might have wanted, but Colorado State was finally able to show Tuesday night why it is nationally ranked.
The No. 22 Rams overcame a seven-point deficit at halftime and used a key second-half surge to get past Nevada, 77-66, in a Mountain West basketball game at Moby Arena.
The Rams improved to 16-1 overall and 6-1 in MW games. Nevada dropped to 9-8, 3-3 and added to its eight-game run of alternating wins with losses.
CSU guards David Roddy (18 points), Isaiah Stevens (16), and Chandler Jacobs (14) combined to score 48 of the Rams’ 77 points. Roddy added eight rebounds and six assists.
