Overview
- A 29-22 loss at West Virginia dropped Colorado to 3-7 and removed any path to a bowl game.
- In his first start, Julian Lewis completed 22 of 35 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions.
- Colorado plans to play Lewis in the final two games after a bye, which would cost him a redshirt under the NCAA four-game limit.
- The Buffaloes allowed seven sacks with left tackle Jordan Seaton and right tackle Larry Johnson III out, prompting major offensive line shuffling as WVU totaled 15 tackles for loss.
- Brett Bartolone handled play-calling after a midseason switch, and Sanders took blame for the results while a hair-pulling sack on Lewis became a notable moment from the broadcast.
