SALT LAKE CITY — Finding a weakness in the sixth-ranked Utah Utes isn't an easy task. Just ask Colorado coach Mel Tucker.
"Big, strong, physical football team, very well coached," was Tucker's assessment earlier this week. "They play with a lot of confidence. They have a lot of good players on both sides of the ball. Special teams are solid. They really don't have weaknesses overall as a team."
Indeed, the 10-1 Utes (7-1 Pac-12) are likely the best overall team the Buffs (5-6, 3-5) have seen this year.
