The football team lived up to expectations Saturday night, proving completely ineffective against a very good Trojan defense. *While they would put 29 second-half points on the board, mostly through a 22-point fourth quarter that occurred long after I left the stadium, the first half was a comedy of zeros. *The result: a 47-29 loss that cemented their bowl-less fate. *At least the Buffs covered?
Here's the pre-halftime drive chart: punt, punt, safety, punt, punt, interception, fumble. *Woof. *In all, CU could only put up 69 first half yards, and scored more points for USC then they did for themselves. *With the program's first bowl trip in six years on the line, it was a heartbreaking letdown to see the offense unable to live up to their side of the bargain. *Moving the ball against the Trojans was never going to be easy, and I don't know what else I reasonably could've asked for, but the bottom line is they didn't come through when needed.
