Twi-lights: Buffs smash Beavers

BOULDER – Once again, the Colorado Buffaloes dominated in the first half as they took care of business in their Pac-12 home-opener against the Oregon State Beavers. Colorado finished that half with a 37-6 lead over the Beavers, thanks to many key contributors. The final was 47-6 as Mike MacIntyre notched his fourth Pac-12 win at Colorado.

Montez threads the needle after the scramble. This guy has a rocket launcher attached to his shoulder.

Cliven Bundy should study at CU and learn the correct way how to take over the State of Oregon

There will be a lot of whiskey this season.

Steven Montez is a redshirt freshman. The country — no, not just the Pac-12 — should be paying close attention.

The #CUBuffs are 4-1 and one bad half at the 4th ranked team in the country from being 5-0. Let this sink in. #TheRiseIsReal
