Way too early look at CSU Football 2025

Will the border war continue after this season?

With the spring game completed and fall camp just around the corner, its time to take a look at the CSU Rams 2025 football campaign. Rams have a lot of returning talent on offense and will need to revamp the defense. Key returnees, new transfers, recruiting, and predictions.
 
Continued at least through 2035. Wyoming is a rural state and save for the Denver Metro is surrounded by other rural states. The Border War needs to continue not just for fan engagement but even more so for recruiting. Colorado and specifically the Denver Metro is a very important recruiting area for Wyoming athletics.
 
I don't think the Border war should continue after this season. The game loses a lot of significance when the teams are not in the same conference. The game will always be early in the season. Part of the fun was the crazy weather in November and the importance of beating a conference rival. Playing csewe in Sept. in hot weather just doesn't sound very appealing. It's time to move on and look for new regional rivals. They are as dead to me as byu.

I completely agree. Plus, on the occasion that CSU wins a game, the smug, conceited attitude will be too much to handle. Can you imagine the comments? I'd be so ashamed...not good enough to get an invite AND get beat...just too much. Yeah, it would be sweet to play them and ruin any chance of a dominant season but they could end up "owning" us for years to come. What a horrible thought that never occurred to Tom Burman.

They are gone....

It's a no win situation for us. If we win, they will say it's a bigger game for us than them. They think their real rival is CU, who they beat as often as we beat byu (sorry to bring that up). And as much as we've owned them since Christensen ( 11-5) was coach, they still view us as beneath them. And frankly, beating them is fun, but their program has been so bad since Lubick was fired, that it's really not that much of an accomplishment any longer.
