BOULDER – The Colorado Buffaloes’ loss to Arizona State on the road was ugly in a lot of ways, and it just got uglier. In addition to relinquishing a 10-point lead multiple times, the Buffs also lost a stud offensive lineman during the back-and-forth battle. Tim Lynott Jr., who has played in several crucial spots for the Buffs this season, has torn his Achilles and will miss the remainder of the year.

“It’s a torn Achilles and they’re going to have to operate,” head coach Mike MacIntyre said Monday.

Lynott has started every game over the past two years, racking up 24 total starts.
