On Colorado State's next drive, Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi ran it in from the 2 to end a 10-play, 75-yard drive with 10:23 before halftime. Before intermission, Keegan Holles ran it from the 4 ending a 14-play, 58-yard drive. The two drives combined used 11 minutes of the quarter.
Fowler-Nicolosi threw for 180 yards for Colorado State (2-1).
Costelli threw for 187 yards and two touchdowns for the Bears (0-2).
