In the moments following Travon McMillian's 75-yard touchdown burst down the middle of the Folsom Field turf on Saturday, all seemed to be well for the Colorado football team.

Following two straight losses, the Buffaloes were blowing out an overmatched foe at home and poised to secure bowl eligibility and keep themselves in the running for the Pac-12 South division.

The Buffs, it seemed, were back on track.

Everything changed during the final 24 minutes Saturday, as the Buffs (5-3, 2-3 Pac-12) stunningly lost to last-place Oregon State, 41-34, in overtime.
