In a battle that many on paper didn't see Baylor staying within 2 TDs, it was much closer than expected. Travis Hunter did his thing and was unstoppable early but Baylor kept punching back throughout with a couple of big plays on their own.
The Baylor D helped CU to negative yards rushing but the major differentiator was turnovers. Baylor threw 2 picks, one for a pick 6 and one where CU was stopped at the 1. Throw in a 95 yard punt return for a TD and trying to upset a top 5 team on the road is not going to come easy.
Incredible game, fun action, and Coach Canady is a class act and one of the best.
Great game!
Colorado Survives Tough Battle Against Baylor, Wins 35-24
Colorado faced one of its toughest challenges of the season against a resilient Baylor squad but managed to escape with a hard-fought 35-24 victory. The Bears’ defense was dominant against the run, completely shutting down the Buffaloes’ rushing attack and forcing Colorado to rely on quarterback Shedeur Sanders. While Sanders threw for 300 yards and a touchdown, he also had two costly interceptions that kept Baylor in the game. Despite the struggles, Colorado found ways to capitalize on key opportunities, making just enough plays to stay ahead.
Baylor’s effort was commendable, as they pushed Colorado to the brink with a physical defensive performance and timely offensive drives. However, a few missed chances and Colorado’s ability to execute in crucial moments proved to be the difference. The Buffaloes were far from their best, but they did just enough to escape with the win. While Colorado will gladly take the victory, this game served as a wake-up call, proving they still have areas to improve as they push forward in their season.
