I photographed the Colorado Arizona State football game in Boulder yesterday. The Buffs defeated the Sun Devils 28-21 to improve to 5-0 for the first time since the 1990s. Laviska Shenault had a huge day, producing 3 touchdowns both running and receiving. The game featured a number of big plays on both sides. But Colorado got the stops they needed when it counted in the fourth quarter.
