During his time at Colorado, Ryan Severson has filled a variety of roles.

The junior is about to add another one this week.

With injuries to starting inside linebackers Addison Gillam and Kenneth Olugbode, Severson will get his first career start at linebacker on Saturday when the Buffs (3-2, 0-1 Pac-12) visit Arizona State (3-2, 1-1).

"I've had the playing time, I've just never had the actual start, so it's going to be cool to get in there and play a full game," Severson said.
