Now in his fifth season as Colorado State head coach Mike Bobo is on the hot seat. Following three consecutive 7-6 bowl campaigns, the Rams went 3-9 in 2019 and are 4-6 this year. Additionally, the need to fill a new state of the art stadium compounds the pressure and stakes. Bobo’s program must win its final two games to attain bowl eligibility. Saturday will be one of Colorado State’s most difficult College Football betting Games matchups. Specifically, the Rams are at a Wyoming Cowboys team that already bowls eligible. The Wyoming defense has been their key asset.
