The Colorado Buffaloes played host to the UCLA Bruins on Friday night at Folsom Field in both teams’ Pac-12 Conference opener. An explosive third quarter combined with solid performances from sophomore wideout Laviska Shenault, Jr. and junior quarterback Steven Montez ultimately launched the Buffs to a 38-16 win.
For the first time since 1998, Colorado is 4-0 to begin a season, while the last time UCLA began a season 0-4 was 1971.
Colorado’s offense performing in a less than impressive manner and the Bruins on the whole playing better than expected were themes of the first half.
