Shedeur Sanders - The Canadian PressTUCSON, Ariz. — Shedeur Sanders threw for 250 yards and accounted for three touchdowns, and Colorado's defense shut down Arizona in a 34-7 win on Saturday.
The Buffaloes scored two early touchdowns and swarmed the Wildcats all afternoon to bounce back from last week's 31-28 loss to Kansas State. Sanders threw for two touchdowns with two interceptions on 23-of-33 passing and ran for another score. Colorado converted 8 of 11 third downs while building a 21-point halftime lead and its defense held the Wildcats to 245 total yards.The Wildcats had trouble protecting quarterback Noah Fifita, giving up seven sacks after allowing six combined the first six games.
Colorado started its opening drive at Arizona's 46-yard and converted with Isaiah Augustave's 1-yard touchdown run. Drelon Miller scored on a 1-yard shovel pass from Sanders on the next drive, then Will Sheppard hauled in a 16-yard touchdown in the corner of the end zone — initially ruled incomplete before being overturned on review.
A week after a close loss to Kansas State, Colorado appears to be back on track with one of its best all-around games. Arizona is searching for answers on both sides of the ball following its third straight loss.
