Fort Collins, CO -- Carlos Washington was on fire today, as he found opening after opening in leading Colorado State to an easy win over Utah State 65-7.

Washington had 22 carries for 268 yards and 3 touchdowns. His 4th quarter replacement Chris Nwoke added 2 touchdowns and 77 yards. "I wanted the home crowd to really get into it. I found an opening early in the 1st and ran 50 yards to the touchdown, and the rest of the game was more of that. We were so far ahead that I think by the beginning of the 4th when I left the game the majority of the crowd had disappeared. I know it'll be a good homecoming party tonight after a team performance like this." Washington commented on the game.

Freshman Safety Keith Harper is looking like a great recruit as he had 9 tackles, 1 for a loss and added another interception today. "I wasn't the highest rated coming out of highschool and I was determined to work hard all summer to prove any doubters wrong. I knew I had a chance to start right away, and I think I've shown that I belong at this level."

Not all was good news for the Rams today though and Jr QB Pete Thomas was injured in the 2nd quarter and went for X-rays only to find out he has a couple broken ribs and could miss the remainder of the season again, after he only played a couple games last season too.

"I knew the guys would be fired up for homecoming this week, but I didn't think we would play such a well rounded game like we did. Washington was unstopable with the ball today and Nwoke wasn't far behind when it was his turn with the offense. I'm saddend by the news that Pete Thomas could miss the remainder of the season for the second year in a row. I wish him the best of luck in getting better and hopefully he can work hard and make it back out on the field this year." CSU coach Drew Gill commented after the game.

For his performance Washington was named MWC offensive player of the week.
