Colorado State University completed preparations for Saturday's game with in-state rival Colorado with a 90-minute workout Thursday afternoon.
Kickoff time Saturday at INVESCO Field at Mile High in Denver is 3 p.m., matching the teams at a neutral site for the seventh time in history, but first since 2003.
Rams' coach Sonny Lubick said his team reviewed various late-game situations as part of Thursday's workout.
"You try to cover everything you can think of," said Lubick. "We worked on late-game situations, two-minute offense and defense, last-minute situations."
Lubick said the Rams tried to cover other situations that arose during last week's opening-game win over Weber State and may come up during Saturday's game with Colorado.
Friday afternoon the Rams will bus to a Denver for a brief walk-through at INVESCO, then be headquartered at a local hotel.
Wide receiver Dustin Osborn (left ankle) remains questionable for Saturday's game. Center Tim Walter (right knee), who started last week's game, is out. The Rams will be without runningback Kyle Bell (right knee) and cornerback Brandon Cathy (left knee) for the remainder of the season. Both suffered injuries during preseason drills and will undergo surgery in the neat future.
Colorado State still has several hundred tickets remaining from its institutional allotment for the game. Tickets remain on sale online at CSURAMS.com. Any unsold tickets will go on sale at the Denver Broncos' ticket office at INVESCO Saturday morning at 9 a.m., or also at any TicketMaster location or online.
