BOULDER — Colorado junior quarterback Steven Montez already owns or shares 20 program records, including most consecutive passes without an interception (172) and most consecutive games with at least 300 yards passing (three). His career passing rating of 133.86 is third all-time at CU and he already ranks ninth among all Buffaloes in passing yards (3,992) and touchdown passes (27).
Montez is an important leader for the Buffs — despite the absence of being named a team captain.
Coach Mike MacIntyre and his staff have the players vote on team captains, and Montez wasn’t among the six chosen — including four on offense.
