BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — The 10th-ranked Washington State Cougars weren't in any hurry to bury the Buffaloes.
Gardner Minshew II had all day to pick his targets and he overcame a slow start and three fourth-down failures to lead the Cougars past Colorado 31-7 on Saturday.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Steven Montez couldn't bear to watch.
Colorado's quarterback had just connected with Laviska Shenault Jr. for the go-ahead touchdown, and now Nebraska backup Andrew Bunch had the Cornhuskers at the CU 20 in the final minute.
"I knew if the crowd went crazy, they probably scored," Montez said. "I knew our defense was going to do it right. They were going to play good regardless. But I didn't want to watch that last play."
