FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi will start at quarterback this week for the Colorado State football team.

The Rams are making a change after one game, with the redshirt freshman set to take over for Clay Millen for Saturday’s Rocky Mountain Showdown at Colorado, CSU coach Jay Norvell announced Monday.

The CSU offense struggled with Millen at QB in the Sept. 2 opener, a 50-24 loss to Washington State. The Rams scored three points with Millen at quarterback.

Fowler-Nicolosi brought a spark when he entered for an injured Millen in the third quarter. The Rams scored 21 fourth-quarter points (one TD coming via special teams), albeit with the game firmly in Washington State's hands. Millen was able to return to practice last week and is available to play.
"Brayden came in and played well. The bottom line is we've got to score touchdowns and we've got to score points offensively," Norvell said. "We're going to give Brayden an opportunity."
