BOULDER — Given the choice, Justin Solis would rather face a high-volume running team than a high-volume passing team.

Saturday night, the Buffaloes (4-7, 1-6 Pac-12) will be in Pullman, Wash., to tangle with No. 24 Washington State (7-3, 5-2) and its high-powered aerial attack.

It may be the toughest test yet for CU's pass defense.

"I'm excited," cornerback Kenneth Crawley said. "They throw the ball a lot, so it gives us more opportunities to catch picks."

While that's true, Washington State star Luke Falk has been as dangerous as any quarterback in the country.
