Defense shines in final home game for Colorado Football

The Colorado Buffaloes defense dominated the Washington Huskies on Saturday afternoon to earn a win in their final home game of the season.

A lacking offense performance meant that the defense needed to pick up the slack in order to secure a win. Thankfully, the Buffs defense did just that. Forcing four turnovers on the afternoon, one of which was returned for a touchdown, Colorado was able to provide some insurance to support the lack of offensive yardage.

Freshman quarterback Brendon Lewis has had a strong few weeks, but Saturday wasn’t his best performance. Lewis threw for 112 yards, and rushed for a touchdown to finalize the victory.
