LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Kevin McDougal ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns Saturday to lead Colorado State to a 35-17 victory over the University of Nevada-Las Vegas and earning a share of the Mountain West Conference title. The Rams (8-3, 5-2) join Utah and Brigham Young as co-champions of the conference. Wyoming, which also had a shot at a share of the title, was still playing at San Diego State. The Rebels struck first as Jeremi Rudolph scored on a 2-yard run to finish an 80-yard drive. Colorado State answered with a 2-yard run from Newton to tie the game with 48 seconds remaining in the first quarter. UNLV scored again in the second with an 80-yard drive capped by a 10-yard touchdown pass from Matt Ray to running back James Wofford. McDougal scored on an 8-yard run at the end of a 51-yard drive to give the Rams a 21-17 lead going into the fourth quarter. The Rams scored twice more to put the game away. Quarterback Matt Newton, who completed 22 of 32 passes for 227 yards, threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to Joey Cuppari to make it 28-17. Then Rahsaan Sanders scored on a 6-yard run with 5:05 remaining. UNLV (3-8, 1-6) ended the season with a five-game losing streak. They have lost 12 consecutive home games, dating back to the 1997 season. | ALSO SEE College Football Scoreboard Colorado State Clubhouse Nevada Las Vegas Clubhouse College football Top 25 overview
