The final regular season game is full of weirdness. Who will be there? Who is checked out?

Utah State technically has nothing to play for as the Aggies can’t make a bowl. The Rams still have a bowl in the pipeline and a slim chance to play for the Mountain West championship.

That suggests the Rams should be the more locked-in team, but CSU could also face a slump after losing control of its MW court.

This CSU team seems well connected and, as it still feels, has a lot to play for.

The Rams will force two big turnovers, Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi will hit two deep balls and CSU will rush for 170-plus yards despite the injuries.

CSU 27, Utah State 23

The backroom is the biggest concern for CSU. Avery Morrow was unable to take more than two carries last week as he battles an MCL sprain. Jalen Dupree (back) is out with a long-term injury. Keegan Holles has been out most of the season with a concussion.

Cam Bariteau (defensive line) went down during last week’s game and has been battling injuries.

Friday will be mostly sunny with a high of 45 degrees in Fort Collins. The sunset comes right at the end of the game and the temps drop into the high 30s.
