STAN vs. COLO: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAAF game

Through 1 Quarter

We've got an early Upset Alert brewing as the Colorado Buffaloes have gotten out to a surprisingly quick start despite kicking off as a 9.5-point underdog. It's still tight after one quarter, with Colorado leading 7-3 over the Stanford Cardinal.

WR Dimitri Stanley has led the way so far for the Buffaloes, as he has caught two passes for one TD and 59 yards. One of the most thrilling moments was Stanley's 55-yard TD reception in the first quarter.

Here's an interesting fact: Colorado also had a four-point lead after the first quarter in the teams' last meeting.

What to Know

The Colorado Buffaloes and the Stanford Cardinal are set to square off in a Pac-12 matchup at 3:30 p.m. ET Nov. 14 at Stanford Stadium. The Buffaloes aren't favored, but they just beat the odds in their last contest, so don't count them out.

Colorado gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener last week. They snuck past the UCLA Bruins with a 48-42 win. RB Jarek Broussard went supernova for Colorado as he rushed for three TDs and 187 yards on 31 carries.

Colorado's defense was a presence as well, as it collected one interception and three fumbles. That interception came courtesy of LB Carson Wells with 8:12 remaining in the first quarter.

Stanford kicked off 2020 on the road and hit a couple of potholes. They found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 35-14 punch to the gut against the Oregon Ducks last week. Stanford was down 28-7 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. A silver lining for them was the play of RB Austin Jones, who rushed for two TDs and 100 yards on 20 carries.

Colorado's victory lifted them to 1-0 while Stanford's loss dropped them down to 0-1. We'll find out if the Buffaloes can add another positive mark to their record or if the Cardinal can shake off the defeat and take the spring out of Colorado's step.
