The University of Colorado football team will take the field Thursday with helmet decals honoring former Buffs great Rashaan Salaam, who died earlier this month.
The team announced in a Facebook post Wednesday that the players would be wearing decals that have the initials "RS" and the number 19, which is the uniform number Salaam wore in his days as a running back for CU.
CU plays Oklahoma State in the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio, Texas, in the team's first postseason appearance since 2007. It is also the first game the Buffs have played since Salaam was found dead in Eben G.
