The Rams open the season as a huge underdog against Texas in Austin on Saturday.
Colorado State Rams quarterback Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi celebrates with fans after defeating the Nevada Wolf Pack 30-20 at Canvas Stadium on November 18, 2023, in Fort Collins, Colorado. FORT COLLINS — On the first play of Colorado State’s intrasquad scrimmage in mid-August, Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi demonstrated the next step in his quarterback evolution.
If Fowler-Nicolosi can pick and choose the right times to air it out or take check-downs, CSU could have a program-changing season. The quarterback admits that 2023 was a whirlwind for him, especially at the beginning. In the offseason, Fowler-Nicolosi turned down overtures from other programs to transfer — including a $600,000 payday from Kansas State, according to Norvell — and stayed in Fort Collins. Fowler-Nicolosi remained a Ram partly out of loyalty, and partly because of the chance he will get to build off a 3,460-yard season that saw him emerge as one of the more promising Group of 5 quarterbacks.
Fowler-Nicolosi walked into a premier Texas high school program as a junior at Aledo after moving from California and led the team to a state championship despite starting the season at No. 3 on the depth chart. “Everybody talks about his strong arm, and how good of vision he has, but his football I.Q. is off the charts,” Buchanan said. “Our offense is pretty complicated, and when he was our JV quarterback, during varsity practice he would stand behind our coach that signaled the plays in and he’d have a script, and that’s really how he learned our offense. On paper.”
