The Buffaloes put up a valiant effort against USC at Folsom Field in week five, but ultimately fell by a score of 48-41. Coach Prime and Colorado now fall to a record of 3-2. The Buffs were never supposed to win today, as the eighth ranked Trojans were 21-point favorites headed into today’s contest. You wouldn’t be able to tell at first glance that the Buffs didn’t win, as spirits were high in Boulder postgame. The fact that Colorado only lost by one score is the very definition of a moral victory, especially after last week’s demolition in Oregon.
