CU Buffs routed by Oklahoma State in Alamo Bowl

CU vs. Oklahoma State, at a glance

What went right: Nothing. Colorado looked unprepared and unfocused from the start and got buried early.

What went wrong: The Buffs could not stop the Oklahoma State passing game, led by quarterback Mason Rudolph and receiver James Washington. Offensively, they couldn't get anything going against a defense that ranked among the worst in the country.

Turning point: In the second quarter, OSU scored a touchdown to take a 10-0 lead, forced the Buffs to go three-and-out on offense and then went on a seven-play, 66-yard drive to score again, making it 17-0.
