Why Colorado State can cover
The Rams have a versatile group of pass-catchers. Horton, if he's able to go, is the No. 1 option in the aerial attack. The California native ranks first in the conference in receptions (70), receiving yards (790), and receiving yards per game (98.7). He's logged double-digit catches in four games thus far. On Oct. 14 versus Boise State, Horton totaled 10 receptions for 130 yards. If he's out or limited, look for receivers Justus Ross-Simmons and Louis Brown IV to get more targers.
Junior tight end Dallin Holker is a reliable weapon in both the run and pass game. The Utah native is seventh in the Mountain West in receiving yards (620) with 48 receptions and six touchdowns. In Week 8 versus UNLV, he snagged four receptions for 80 yards. See which team to pick here.
