Montez, Buffs Offense Set For Stingy ASU Defense

BOULDER — This week might not present the most-favorable conditions for the Colorado offense to shake its first-half blues.

When the 2-1 Buffs open Pac-12 play Saturday at 3-0 Arizona State, they will face a defense that has given up just three touchdowns in three games — and zero points in the first three quarters.

Kickoff is set for 8:10 p.m. on the Pac-12 Network.

It is not as if the Buffs haven't shown they are capable of reaching the end zone, as CU is averaging a healthy 36.3 points per game. The problem has been establishing some consistency early in the game.
