CU is struggling at home with Utah right now. Utes are up 24-21 midway through the 3rd. CU has cashed in some big plays, but their calling card is their run game with Jarek Broussard and game management with their safety-turned-QB. Inexplicably (um, Dorrell?) they are throwing the ball all over the place today. Their end of the first half play calling gave Utah a free 3 points.
Buffs just got a 17 yd run from Broussard and threw a bad pick on the next play. *$c clinches the South before we even kick off if Utah wins.
Buffs dodge a bullet. After tackling air for much of the drive after the pick, they faced a 3rd and goal from inside their 1. Utah missed a wide open receiver in the corner of the end zone on 3rd (why were they even passing there after they'd run it down the Buffs throats?) and then had a bad snap in shotgun on 4th to kill their drive.

I'd bet our final week bonus game is at Utah. They are looking solid today. Now up by 6 with 9 minutes left.
5:19 left, CU down by 6, 4th and 5 for the Buffs on the Utah 40.
Big decision for Dorrell...Punt right or punt left?
Brave Karl goes for it, Buffs call a slant pass that is batted down by the pass rush.
Utah runs for a 60+ yd TD on the very next play. Utah 35, CU 21 after the 2 pt conv. Thanks for coming, Buffs.
Man, if we hadn't given CU the ball 4 times for 28 points, we'd be playing for the P12 South title today. Sigh...
Utah has this one wrapped, I hope we do get to play them after whipping SUC today!
