Beat Fresno State, 26-23<\/a><\/p>\nNext up: at Colorado State (3:30 p.m. on The CW)<\/p>\n
Comment: How\u2019s this for a stretch of inconsistency: lose at Toledo by 25, beat Texas State by two, lose at Oregon State by 52, beat Fresno State by three. It\u2019s enough to make you wonder if SDSU needs to learn how to play on the road. (Last week: 5)<\/p>\n
5. Texas State (3-3, 1-1)<\/p>\n
Result: Beat Colorado State, 66-27<\/p>\n
Next up: vs. Utah State (4:30 p.m. on CBS Sports Network)<\/p>\n
Comment:\u00a0The Bobcats have one more week to enjoy home cooking and a second-rate opponent before embarking on the back-to-back from hell: visits to Boise State and Oregon State on consecutive Saturdays. We suspect one of the two road games will be quite close. But which one?\u00a0(Last week: 6)<\/p>\n
6. Colorado State (2-4, 0-2)<\/p>\n
Result: Lost at Colorado State, 66-27<\/p>\n
Next up: vs. San Diego State (3:30 p.m. on The CW)<\/p>\n
Comment:\u00a0You might recall that CSU coach Jim Mora stripped defensive coordinator Tyson Summers of\u00a0playcalling\u00a0duties two games ago during the loss to Oregon State. (He subsequently quit.) Obviously, Summers was the problem, the whole problem and nothing but the problem. Any idea how that turned out?\u00a0(Last week: 4)<\/p>\n
7. Utah State (2-4, 1-1)<\/p>\n
Result: Did not play<\/p>\n
Next up: at Texas State (4:30 p.m. on CBS Sports Network)<\/p>\n
Comment:\u00a0As the situation stands, we see one more realistic opportunity for victory: when the Aggies host Colorado State on Halloween. Otherwise, the schedule is rough; the outlook, bleak.\u00a0(Last week: 7)<\/p>\n
8. Washington State (1-6, 0-3)<\/p>\n
Result: Lost at Oregon State, 48-30<\/p>\n
Next up: vs. Boise State (3 p.m. on USA Network)<\/p>\n
Comment:\u00a0WSU coach Kirby Moore called the first half of Saturday\u2019s game like he was trying to not lose by 40, instead of trying to win. It was embarrassing. At least the Cougars changed quarterbacks, albeit weeks too late to salvage the season. What. A.
