Thousands of recent- ly-hatched moths have occupied Fort Collins within the last week. According to Matt Camper, Col- orado State University faculty instructor and entomologist, this is an anomaly. “We haven’t seen anything like this in over 30 years,” Camp- er said. “At least in Colorado, nothing.” These local moths, known as vagabond crambus in the scientifi c community, typically feed on lawn grass throughout the summer in their caterpillar forms until taking up residence in their cocoons around mid-Ju- ly. Toward the end of the sum- mer, the vagabond crambus in its moth form emerges from its co- coon. A high population of moths now suggests that there was a high level of caterpillars over this past summer. “It’s a past infestation, and the moths are now remnants of the infestation this summer,” Camper said. “We know that in the caterpillar form they can cause incredible damage in high numbers by clipping the tips of grass like a lawnmower.” The moths are signifi cant-

By Chad Deutschman @ChadDeutschman

Colorado State still doesn’t know who their quarterback is. The farewell Hughes Sta- dium campaign began with a 23-14 Colorado State win over University of Texas-San Anto- nio (1-1) and created even more controversy surrounding the team’s quarterbacks. CSU (1-1) came into the game with a lot of unanswered ques- tions, the most important being who the starting quarterback will be. Senior Faton Bauta got the start under center and quickly led the Rams to a fi eld goal on the opening drive of the game. Bauta played the entire fi rst half, helping the team to a 20-14 lead at half. The real fun, however, came at the 12:41 mark of the fourth quarter. Bauta and the o ense strug- gled to move the ball to start the second half, and after throwing three straight incompletions, two of which missed badly, the boo birds greeted the o ense as they walked o the fi eld. True freshman Collin Hill then entered the game for the team’s next o ensive possession, much to the delight of the fans. Head coach Mike Bobo said after the game that the decision to play Hill came due to the fact the team could not move the ball. “I was not real reluctant when we could not complete a pass,” Bobo said about the de- cision to play Hill. “We thought that if we were struggling throwing the ball we would give him an opportunity. He didn’t play great either but he had two big completions.” By playing Hill, there is now no chance of the freshman red- shirting the 2016 season. “You wold like to redshirt a young guy,” Bobo said. “But (through) spring, we felt he had a really good chance to be a really good player, so we get him ready to play. All along I was saying it would be a three-quarterback race and it was.” Freshman QB Collin Hill came into game during the fourth quarter of CSU’s home opener win over UTSA 23-14.
