BERKELEY, Calif. — One game, one goal, one more opportunity.
The math has become very simple for the Colorado Buffaloes. At the end of a week that began with their head coach being dismissed, the 5-6 Buffs (2-6 Pac-12) will try one more time to earn an elusive sixth win and become bowl eligible. Their final opportunity comes Saturday at California Memorial Stadium, where they will face the Cal Bears (6-4, 3-4) in a 5 p.m. game.
No doubt, the removal of Mike MacIntyre as CU's head coach changed the atmosphere surrounding the Buffs during the week.
