I photographed the NCAA football game between Colorado and Utah today. I had to shoot from the stands due to COVID-19 restrictions and that was certainly a new experience. It gave a whole new perspective and it made following the action somewhat easier since I go all along the yard lines. I missed out on the shots from behind the end zone but I was still able to capture some cool shots. I have to admit it was odd having no fans, students, cheerleaders, or marching bands.
Unfortunately, CU lost the game 38-21 after jumping out to a 21-10 lead at the start of the second half. Utah is the Buffaloes’ kryptonite I guess now having lost 4 straight to the Utes.
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.
