Colorado State Rams

It's half time and the score is 27-10 with Navy dominating the game.This really sucks because Kyle Bell has around 75/80 yards rushing in the first half alone but probably won't hardly touch the ball in the 2nd half because of the score.This has been the case far too often with CSU giving up too many points and getting down big week after week.It totally takes Bell out of the game as they have to pass almost every down.It doesn't look good for the Rams.I'm bummed.

The announcers were praising Bell (rightfully so as he is an excellent back), but the color announcer came up with some nonsense about how Bell needed to be rested because he "gets exhausted" during games. What b.s. Kyle's a workout warrior and is probably as fit as anyone on CSU.


People on different boards used to post the same type of crap when I'd argue that Mike Alstott should be a featured back. "He doesn't have the endurance for it." He was pushing cars up and down his street as a teenager. It's been so long since there have been white running backs on a national stage that most people assume the worst about them.

Bill Curry is the guy spouting the nonsense about Kyle's conditioning. He is a former SEC coach, a full of crap Caste System groupie and should be treated as such! That's all I have to say about that idiot!

To be fair to Bill Curry he's had alot of great things to say about David Anderson in several games this year.

The most productive running backs have always thrived on a heavy workload. They eventually wear down the defense. Kyle Bell is certainly that type.

Well, its a mixed bag from CSU's first live scrimmage of the spring. Their spring game is April 22 at French Field in Fort Collins at 11 AM. The game will be carried live by KCOL 600 AM in Fort Collins. Here's the link to the recap and stats from the scrimmage.

hmm... Gartrell and Tramell... hopefully they won't take too many carries away from Kyle Bell during the season

It's only the beginning of summer but I can't wait to see Kyle Bell running wild in the fall.He had over 1200 yards rushing and he missed a few games.Wait until he starts all 12 games.I want to see him make a legitimate run at winning the Doak Walker Award as a junior like Luke Staley did in 2001!

Kyle Bell will be a joy to watch this fall and I hope he can get over 1500 yards as I think that is a reasonable goal that Bell can get.
