Colorado gets first Pac-12 win, shuts out the Arizona Wildcats

The University of Colorado Buffaloes snapped their four-game losing streak Saturday afternoon, trouncing the Arizona Wildcats 34-0. Colorado earned their first FBS win of 2021, improving to 2-4 overall and 1-2 in Pac-12 play. Arizona’s losing streak continues, falling to 0-6 overall and 0-3 in Pac-12 play.

The story of Saturday’s game was Colorado’s defense, getting their first conference shut out in 16 years. Senior linebacker Nate Landman and senior linebacker Carson Wells wreaked havoc on the Arizona offense. Wells led the team with four tackles for a loss, on top of an electrifying 50-yard interception, which resulted in a touchdown.
