It seems that the Colorado School of Mines football team can finally take a break from their intense back-and-forth games on the road. Their latest match in Alamosa was a true showcase of their offensive prowess, as they dominated Adams State with a whopping 638 yards and a 56-14 victory in the RMAC league.
Quarterback Evan Foster was undoubtedly the star of the game, completing an impressive 25 out of 31 passes for 326 yards and four touchdowns. But his talents didn't end there - he also ran for 57 yards on four carries and even caught a 17-yard pass from Landon Walker in a clever trick play. It was truly a multi-dimensional performance from Foster.
The Orediggers, ranked 12th, also made a statement with their ground game, racking up 288 yards against a struggling Adams State team that lost their starting quarterback, Chase Nelson, in the first half. This was the first time all season that the Orediggers were able to secure a road win by a margin greater than three points, with their only loss coming against Colorado Mesa on October 5th.
Two of Mines' top receivers, Flynn Schiele and Max McLeod, both exceeded 100 receiving yards for the second consecutive game. Walker also contributed to the scoreline with a rushing touchdown in addition to his pass to Foster, while Braelon Tate and Joseph Capra also found the endzone with their rushing efforts.
But it was the Orediggers' impressive run of six touchdowns out of seven possessions in the second to fourth quarters that solidified their dominance and turned the game into a one-sided blowout. With this win under their belt, they can now look forward to a highly anticipated clash against undefeated Western Colorado at Marv Kay Stadium on October 26th.
