Football Practice Report: Aug. 5

BOULDER — Bigger, stronger, faster — and a sense of urgency.

If you’re looking for a quick way to describe the opening session of the Colorado Buffaloes’ fall camp, that might be the most apt, as the Buffs hit the practice field Wednesday morning for their first of 29 workouts before the Sept. 3 season opener at Hawai’i.

The bigger, more powerful aspect shouldn’t come as a surprise. The Buffs have are coming off a long offseason conditioning program, and players are expected to gain at least a little strength and bulk in that period.

“We have guys that lost 10 pounds of fat and gained eight or nine pounds of muscle,” said head coach Mike MacIntyre.
