The Buffaloes defense has held fast even though for most of the first half the offense was doing everything they could to give away the game. Nick Hirschman threw two killer interceptions and Donta Abron had a lost fumble but the Utes could only manage 17 points.
The Colorado offense finally seemed to get it together on the final drive of the half, taking the ball 78 yards in 12 plays to bring the game back within three.
Let's go Buffs! Get us that second win and close the season on a high note.
