Summary

Colorado faced a challenging match against Arizona State, unable to find their footing in the ground game with a season-low 52 rushing yards. Despite a touchdown that cut the deficit to ten points in the fourth quarter, Colorado couldn't capitalize on Arizona State's second-half mistakes, missing a pivotal fourth-down conversion late in the game. Arizona State seized the lead early and maintained control throughout, marking Colorado's fifth loss in the Big 12 this season.
