You’d probably guess that, on a rain-soaked, windswept night on the Palouse, a defensive player would be the odds-on-favorite to take home the internet’s highest honor. You’d be right. Those conditions weren’t exactly conducive to chucking the ball around the yard, as high winds create some serious havoc for the passing game.
The fact that Colorado didn’t score a point drives home the thought that the game’s biggest stars shined for #SpeedD. That’s not to say the offense was a garbage barge. Jamal Morrow had another solid game, averaging 6.6 yards on 11 carries, scoring a touchdown and picking up another 28 yards through the air.
