The Colorado Buffaloes lost another one possession game today, this time it came in their season finale against the Utah Utes. The score was 20-14 Utah, in this, the 5th edition of the “Rumble in The Rockies” since each team joined the Pac-12. This left the Buffs with a 4-9 record on the season (1-8 in Pac-12 play). In the game, the Buffs and Utes exchanged many turnovers and the fourth QB of the season was used by CU (backup outside linebacker Jaleel Awini.) It was a wild game that saw both Nelson Spruce and Larry Zimmer making their last appearances as members of the Colorado herd. Here are BSN Denver’s tweets of the game.
