Colorado dropped another match this season, this time falling to the Big 12 Abvers TCU, 35-21. The buffaloes opened with a rocky start while Kaidon Salter launched an interception on the first training. However, they rebounded with two long possessions, each covering more than 12 games, which ended with affected. The momentum did not last.
Salter launched interceptions on the following two journeys, and the offensive completely stalled in the third quarter. The fourth has seen a lonely touching connection with Omarion Miller, followed by two other shifts. It was another frustrating outing for Coloradowhich is now 2-4.

Here are four key statistics that tell the story of the loss of buffaloes at TCU Horned frogs.
Reversals
The quarter of Colorado, Kaidon Salter (3), is looking to launch a field against TCU during the first half at the Amon G. Carter stadium.
The Buffaloes lost the battle for turnover largely on Saturday evening in Fort Worth. The quarter-arrier Kaidon Salter launched three interceptions, and a return of a boot of clearance, Kam Mikell was struck by the ball, allowing TCU to recover. Return the ball four times and there is a good chance that you will not win this match, and that is precisely what happened to the buffs.
DJ McKinney as the main Buffs plateau

When your star of star corner leads the team in the plated, it is usually a bad sign. This means that the secondary is separated, and it was the case last night. The quarter of TCU, Josh Hoover, dug the defense of Colorado for 275 yards and four touched passers-by, spreading the ball at 11 different receivers.

Omarion Miller

Omarion Miller was the only bright point in the Buffaloese offensive on Saturday, ending with six catches for 89 yards and two affected. It is the most talented receiver in the Colorado deep receiver room and showed it against TCU with a pair of large score games. If the buffs hope to change their season, putting Miller more involved must be a priority.

The buffaloes ran the ball 35 times on 126 yards, but no one has really jumped from the statistics sheet – like perhaps Dallan Hayden, who finished with nine races for 61 yards, including a burst of 25 yards. It is the best offensive line that Colorado had at the time of Deion Sanders, but commitment to the race game is still not there.

Naturally, staying balanced is difficult when the defense abandons more than 20 points, but playing on the ground opens everything else. Leaning there would make Kaidon Salter’s life easier.
