Keeler: With Laviska Shenault in limbo, CU Buffs will go as far as Steven Montez can carry them

0

When they say it’s about Laviska, it is — just not in the way that you’d think. Consider this: Over their last 16 games, the CU Buffs are 8-8. When Steven Montez has completed at least 65 percent of his throws in those 16 tilts, they’ve gone 8-0.

Take that for what it’s worth. And this, too: Since 2017, the Buffs are 11-1 when Montez’s completion percentage hits the 65 percent mark or higher. They’re 2-14 when it doesn’t.

What do we know? A month in the books, we know the Buffs (3-1, 1-0 Pac-12), come hell or high water, are never out of it.
