The 2022 season is officially in the books and although Colorado State finished 3-9 for the second straight year, and missed the postseason for the fifth consecutive year, the feeling in Ram Nation is that the program is trending in the right direction. With that in mind, let’s dive right on into it. Here are 10 thoughts on CSU football,…

Colorado State fell 28-16 to San Jose State in a frustrating game that ultimately got away from the Rams Saturday night.

We already covered all of that…...
