Colorado State Rams topped by Nevada Wolf Pack

11/11/2018 12:55:00 AM | Football

RENO, Nev. - The Colorado State football team (3-7, 2-4 MW) fell to Nevada (6-4, 4-2 MW) Saturday night at Mackay Stadium, 49-10. 

Nevada led 7-0 after the first quarter, but followed with a trio of touchdowns in the second frame to take a 28-0 lead into halftime. Overall, the Wolf Pack would score the first 49 points of the game.

In the fourth quarter, redshirt-senior safety Kavapele Maka recovered a fumble forced by freshman safety Quinn Brinnon, paving the way for the Rams to score.

Redshirt-sophomore quarterback Collin Hill started his second game of the season and finished the game completing 23 of 40 passes for 186 yards. Facing a third down, he connected with Preston Williams, a redshirt junior wide receiver, in the end zone for an 8-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, putting CSU on the scoreboard. Redshirt-senior kicker Wyatt Bryan later added a 32-yard field goal.

Sophomore defensive end Emmanuel Jones logged his second sack of the season, taking down Wolfpack quarterback Ty Gangi for a loss of 10 yards in the second quarter.
