Colorado vs. Texas Live updates Score, results, highlights, for Tuesday's NCAA Football game

The Texas Longhorns and the Colorado Buffaloes have had some time off and are no doubt ready to hit the field. Bowl season is underway, and the Longhorns and Colorado will compete for postseason bragging rights in the Alamo Bowl at Alamodome at 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Texas will be strutting in after a win while Colorado will be stumbling in from a defeat.

A well-balanced attack led Texas over the Kansas State Wildcats every single quarter on their way to victory three weeks ago. Texas took their contest on the road with ease, bagging a 69-31 victory over K-State. The matchup was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point Texas had established a 66-31 advantage. RB Bijan Robinson had a dynamite game for Texas; he rushed for three TDs and 172 yards on nine carries. One of the most memorable plays of the game was Robinson's 75-yard touchdown rush in the third quarter. Robinson's sharp performance set his single-game rushing touchdown high for the season.

Meanwhile, the matchup between Colorado and the Utah Utes two weeks ago was not particularly close, with Colorado falling 38-21. No one had a standout game offensively for the Buffaloes, but they got scores from WR Maurice Bell and WR Brenden Rice. One of the most thrilling moments was Rice's 61-yard TD reception in the third quarter.

A couple defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Longhorns are 15th worst in the nation in passing yards allowed per game, with 274.2 on average. To make matters even worse for Texas, Colorado enters the game with only 14 touchdowns allowed, good for 12th best in the nation.
