BOULDER — The best part? The look in Eno Benjamin’s eyes. The desperation, the darting. The glance a chased rabbit gives when a terrier pins it against a wooden fence, when there’s nowhere left to run.
“I could see it in his face,” CU Buffs safety Derrion Rakestraw recalled of the tackle that might’ve saved Ralphie’s bacon late last Saturday night. “Yeah, he cut right away.”
With 11:02 left in the third quarter at Sun Devil Stadium and the Buffs nursing a 24-21 lead, Arizona State had driven to the CU 4, a junket of 82 yards in 12 plays.
