DENVER — There were six days to watch tape and learn. Make adjustments.
Instead, Colorado State's defense looked exactly every bit the same unit that struggled in the first week of the season.
The only difference was CSU head coach Mike Bobo was on the field to watch it all come undone.
Colorado scored touchdowns on its first three drives as quarterback Steven Montez acclimated himself to a new season, rushing for one of them and throwing for two others. He completed his first 12 passes of the game. On the next, he was intercepted. But Colorado State's offense returned the favor and the Buffs scored another touchdown.
