Since it worked before, UNM's offense needs to step up and make a big play. If it's good for the defense, it might work for the offense too.

Rodney Ferguson ran for five yards to start the drive. Ferguson carried again for four yards. Ferguson carried again and gained two yards for the first down. Porterie rolled out, appeared to stumble and was sacked for a loss of eight yards. It brought up second-and-18 at the UNM 28. Porterie threw into traffic toward Travis Brown. Brown tipped it and UNM was lucky CSU did not grab it. It brought up a huge third-and-18 at the UNM 28. Porterie's pass was complete to Thomas Wilson, who gained five yards on the play.

UNM punted on fourth-and-13 at its 33. CSU's ran the punt back back to its 40-yard line with 5:15 left in the game.
