Colorado School of Mines football runs RMAC win streak to 23 with rout of Black Hills State
No need for drama on Saturday at Marv Kay Stadium.
Back home after a pair of down-to-the-wire road wins, the Colorado School of Mines football team put 35 points on the board in the opening 15 minutes and cruised from there for a 52-24 rout of Black Hills State before a record 6,958 fans in Golden.
Redshirt junior receiver Flynn Schiele hauled in two of his three touchdown receptions in a 35-7 first quarter that all but sealed the fourth-ranked Orediggers’ 23rd straight RMAC win. It was part of a 13-catch, 297-yard tour de force for Schiele that set a new stadium record for receiving yards in a single game.
Quarterback Evan Foster completed 27 of 35 passes for 434 yards and six touchdowns, with his other three scoring passes all going to receiver Max McLeod. The redshirt senior’s nine-catch, 89-yard day made him the second Oredigger to top 4,000 career receiving yards.
Redshirt junior Landon Walker also turned seven carries into 92 yards and one touchdown for Mines (4-0, 2-0 RMAC), which outgained Black Hills State (2-2, 1-1) 581 yards to 382. The Mines defense produced eight tackles for loss while limiting the Yellow Jackets to 10 points through three quarters.
Mines scored touchdowns on six of seven first-half drives to take a 42-10 lead into halftime. That included an onside kick recovery after the Orediggers scored on the opening possession of the game.
Mines hits the road again next Saturday with a visit to Colorado Mesa (2-2, 1-1) in Grand Junction.

The Denver Broncos’ 2026 schedule has arrived, with nine games on the road and eight games set for Empower Field at Mile High this season.
The Broncos are set to travel 19,129 miles this year, which ranks 15th in the NFL, according to Bill Speros of Bookies.com. Denver does not have an international game this year, which helped them rank near the middle of the pack in travel. Last season, the Broncos played in London and logged 23,267 travel miles, seventh-most in the league.
Elsewhere in the AFC West, the Los Angeles Chargers will travel 24,816 miles (seventh-most), the Las Vegas Raiders will trek 21,099 miles (13th-most) and the Kansas City Chiefs will log 18,401 miles (17th-most) in 2026.
The San Francisco 49ers (38,105) and Los Angeles Rams (34,847) are set to face off in Australia, giving them by far the most travel miles in the league. The Carolina Panthers (8,740) will have the easiest travel schedule this season.
