Fort Collins, CO -- In a battle of the unbeatens early on this college season, Texas A&M came out on top of a 41-28 game vs. Colorado State.

Texas A&M took advantage of some CSU missed opportunities in the 2nd to score 27 points in the quarter. The defecit proved too large for Pete Thomas and team to come back from.

The Aggies were lead by Jr HB Mister Jones, who ran for 173 yards and 2 touchdowns on the day, backup Ben Malena added 82 yards to the Aggies offense too."I had a few big openings that I took advantage of, but overall this Colorado State team has my respect, Their young D-line will be something not to mess with in the next couple of years, I'd hate to be in the Mountain West and have to face them again." Jones commented after the game.

Jr QB Matt Joeckel was 18 of 26 for 186 yards and 4 TDs. The receiving corps was lead by Nate Askew and Alfred Moore who both tallied 2 TDs.

CSU took a while, but in the second and third quarters their rushing game started to click, too bad for Nwoke as they were so far behind and trying to play catch up through the air as Nwoke was limited to 56 yards on 14 carries.QB Pete Thomas threw for 346 yards however it was on 18 of 50 passing, with 3 TD and 2 INT.Touchdown catches were by Matt Weems, Freshman Derrick Rhodes and Andre Gill who added 157 yards receiving. "I was ready for this game, I knew I could get out into some spaces with their secondary being a little weak. Once I got past any linebackers who dropped back, I was wide open. They do have a couple great LBs though."Gill commented.

This is the first time this season that the Rams defense has been unable to force any turnovers from the opposition. Pete Kontodiakos did continue to have a strong year with a 3 for 3 FG game with a long of 59 yards, and 1-1 XP. If he continues these strong performances, we will get to watch him on Sundays next fall.

We will find out just how good this years Ram squad is over the next few weeks as they face TCU, @ #12 Utah, home against BYU.
