The last two weeks coming into Saturday's matchup with Iowa State had felt like deja vu for Coach Prime and Colorado. The Buffs built early two-touchdown leads on both BYU and TCU, but failed to execute down the stretch and got soundly beaten in the second halves.

After taking a 14-0 lead on BYU, Colorado was outscored 24-7 the rest of the game.
