00:00All right, Brian Howell covers the Colorado Buffaloes for BuffZone.com and the Boulder
00:09Daily Camera.
00:11And they've had quite a season out in Boulder, no doubt you can follow them at BrianHowell33
00:17on X.
00:18They're taking on Utah at Folsom Field on Saturday at noon.
00:24The game is on Fox.
00:25Brian, good to see you.
00:26I want to start with this.
00:27You know, everyone always talks about Prime and Sanders and, you know, Hunter and that's
00:37all they ever do.
00:38I want to talk first about that pass rush that airs, that defense that leads the Big
00:4412 in sacks.
00:46And they got at least nine guys that have been getting it done, sacking quarterbacks.
00:53You get that pressure on the pocket, anything, you know, possible can happen.
00:59And you know, you could get fumbles, you can get lost down, you can get put them in deep
01:05third and long situations.
01:07I think it's made them a much better football team this year, that pass rush.
01:11Yeah, no question.
01:13You make a great point.
01:14And there's not a Sanders or a Hunter on that pass rush.
01:17So they are getting it done with other people.
01:20And you know, they proved it to your point the other day.
01:23They finished off that game by getting the strip sack there in the end zone.
01:27And Shiloh Sanders actually picked it up and scored the touchdown to put that game away.
01:31But yeah, twice in the last couple of weeks, the last few weeks, they've had seven sacks
01:36on the road.
01:37You know, so they're getting a lot of different guys.
01:40There's not one dominant guy that's got like 10 sacks.
01:43They just got a bunch of people that, you know, they've had, I think, six different
01:46guys this year have had two sack games.
01:49And so they've got just a lot of different people they can rotate through and get pressure
01:52on the quarterback.
01:53Has BJ Green been the main stud though?
01:57Yeah, in recent weeks, he has been.
01:59He got off to a slow start.
02:01He was getting pressure.
02:02But as a team, they weren't really getting sacks the first four weeks or so.
02:06They've got most of their sacks in the last five games.
02:09And he kind of started it.
02:10He had, I think he had a two sack game, maybe at UCF, I can't remember where it was.
02:14But he's been a monster.
02:16He had two more against Texas Tech.
02:18So he's their best guy.
02:20But they've got other guys for sure.
