Behind some defensive adjustments and timely stops in the second half, in addition to the play of Heisman-contender Laviska Shenault, the Buffaloes defeated the Sun Devils 28-21 Saturday afternoon. With the win, Colorado (5-0, 2-0 Pac-12) is now 5-0 for the 25th time in school history and first since 1998.
Here are my three biggest takeaways from the Buffaloes big win:
1. Second half adjustments against the run, defensive stops key Buffaloes win
Herm Edwards’ game plan against Colorado was evident right from the start. Run the ball.
