Dorrell’s Buffs cruise past UCLA in season opener

The offensive duo of University of Colorado (1-0) quarterback Sam Noyer and sophomore tailback Jarek Broussard burst onto the scene Saturday night at Folsom Field as the Buffs downed the UCLA Bruins (0-1), 48-42.

“It felt great,” Noyer said. “Getting the first star under my belt with the win, it was a fun game for sure and there’s some things we need to clean up, but overall it was a great experience.”

Setting the stage for Noyer and Broussard’s heroics was a fearless Buffs’ defense that forced 3 UCLA turnovers. Increased physicality was a major goal for this Buffs’ defense and the young group showed it against UCLA.
