CU football: Stronger, faster Jeromy Irwin ready for key role

Keeping quarterback Sefo Liufau healthy is going to be a key element to the Colorado football season.

That makes Jeromy Irwin a very important man for the Buffaloes.

The junior is beginning his second season as the Buffs' starting left tackle, where he is responsible for protecting Liufau's blind side.

"I have a lot of confidence in Jeromy," CU head coach Mike MacIntyre said. "(During fall camp), I've seen a better Jeromy and more understanding and feeling more comfortable."

Entering his fourth season at CU, Irwin is eager to get rolling, because he knows the hard work he and his teammates have put in during the offseason.
