FORT COLLINS — Despite what the roster might suggest, had no preconceived notions heading into Saturday’s scrimmage, the first of spring camp for his Colorado State roster.
He wasn’t looking at an experienced offense going up against a still-growing defense, one that has limited numbers this spring in the secondary.
The fact the Rams threw for 508 yards without an interception during the 59-play session at the indoor practice facility did leave the head coach with an expectation for next Saturday’s scrimmage.
“I don’t know how many yards we threw for, but there were too many yards thrown for, too many passes being caught,” Bobo said after the closed scrimmage. “What I’m accustomed to (for spring football) is defenses kinda rule the day, but also accustomed to after a good scrimmage you come back and have the second scrimmage and the other side of the ball usually plays a little bit better.
“It wasn’t very good for one side of the ball, but how are we going to improve and how are we going to maintain and improve offensively, that’s the challenge.”
Returning a hot quarterback in and a first-team all-conference target at wideout in , Bobo naturally chose to highlight the passing game during the scrimmage. Not for what they do well, but for what he still wants to see improve, and that’s the intermediate passing game.
