In the final Rocky Mountain Showdown at the newly named Broncos Stadium at Mile High in Denver, the Colorado Buffaloes put on an offensive show, making CSU look like a high school team in the process.
CU got off to a hot start and never looked back. Colorado marched 75 yards down the field on their opening possession in just five plays. The drive took less than a minute and a half, and was capped off by a 38-yard Steven Montez touchdown run.
“Man I just didn't fall over,” Montez said after the game. “I was running and I kind of looked back, peeped back and saw how close they were to me and it seemed like they were catching up to me so I was like uh-oh, better get in the end zone, so I started to stumble and I was trying to empty out all the gas but there was no more gas so I almost tripped and fell over and looked like a fool but we got it done so that was good.
