WATCH: First-half highlights from Colorado’s impressive start vs. TCU
The Coach Prime era at Colorado could not have gotten off to a better start.
The Buffs played with purpose and intensity on both sides of the ball. They struck first against No. 17 TCU on a 4-yard touchdown pass from Shedeur Sanders to true freshman Dylan Edwards. Safety Trevor Woods, one of CU’s few returning players, followed with an interception in the end zone on TCU’s next drive.
In the second quarter, Sy’veon Wilkerson scored from two yards out to give the Buffs a 14-7 lead. TCU answered to tie the game at 14 before Jace Feely hit a 49-yard field goal to give the Buffs a 17-14 lead entering the locker room.
