The Utes have played pretty well in most areas this year, but they have only been able to throw for 188.2 yards per game. Their best player has been running back Devontae Booker, who has 1,255 yards on the season with eight touchdowns. Quarterback Travis Wilson has thrown for 1,701 yards with 14 touchdowns and only four interceptions.

Colorado has now lost their last seven games after Oregon was able to beat them 44-10 last weekend. In that game, the Buffaloes only had 226 total yards, while Oregon was able to gain 265 yards on the ground alone.

The Buffaloes have had one of the worst defenses in the nation this season, giving up 39.1 points per game to their opponents. Junior Nelson Spruce has been one of the better wide receivers in the country by catching 101 passes for 1,107 yards and a team-best 11 touchdowns.
