BOULDER — While Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes still have a game remaining this year, questions from the media at his weekly press conference focused much more on the big picture.
Colorado (4-7 overall, 1-7 Pac-12) wraps up its season Saturday with a 1 p.m. game at Utah (7-4, 4-4). The Buffs have one last chance to end a losing streak that has hit five games and a skid that has seen them drop seven of their last eight.
That's certainly not how Coach Prime envisioned CU's stretch run unfolding — but no matter what happens Saturday in Salt Lake City, he knows this season has been a solid step forward for a program that won just one game a year ago.
