Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi led Colorado State to a dramatic 42-37 comeback victory over Utah State, throwing three of his four touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. After trailing 30-13 at the end of the third quarter, the Rams scored 29 unanswered points to secure the win, marking their first eight-win season in a decade. Fowler-Nicolosi completed 31 of 46 passes for 370 yards, with key contributions from Vince Brown II and Jordan Ross, who both scored touchdowns. Utah State's Bryson Barnes had a strong performance, throwing for 189 yards and rushing for 185, but his two interceptions proved costly.
