BOULDER — Former Colorado quarterback Joel Klatt, now the lead college football analyst for Fox Sports, has always looked forward to the day he would return to CU and call a game from Folsom Field.
But he admits he didn't think the day would come so soon.
"To say that I expected to be back this year would be a lie," Klatt said Wednesday afternoon with a laugh. "It's something I have looked forward to and hoped the day would come — but it's come much sooner than I expected."
Klatt and Fox cohorts Gus Johnson and Shannon Spake will be on hand Saturday at Folsom Field for the Pac-12 showdown between division leaders Colorado (8-2 overall, 6-1 Pac-12) and Washington State (8-2, 7-0).
