CU Buffs trounced by TCU, 38-13; QB Brendon Lewis booed, benched CU fans voted with their voices late Friday night. Then they voted with their feet — by leaving Folsom Field, en masse, before TCU could put...
Provides rushing value in loss Lewis completed 13 of 25 passes for 89 yards and an interception in Saturday's 10-7 loss to Texas A&M. He also rushed nine times for 76 yards.
Impact The Buffaloes had a plum chance to pull an upset after Haynes King went down with an injury. However, when you are a run-first team and lose your star running back in the third quarter. It's hard to take advantage. With Jarek Broussard sidelined, Lewis did all he could to keep Colorado in the game, but once the Aggies finally found the end zone in the fourth quarter, the team could not respond quickly enough.

Efficient in decisive win Lewis completed 10 of 15 passes for 102 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 35-7 win over Northern Colorado. He also rushed eight times for 44 yards.
Impact In true Colorado fashion, the rushing attack ruled the day in the victory. Lewis made no mistakes and handed the ball off to his playmakers, who had a scoring bonanza out of the backfield. Lewis is never going to wow you with stats due to the Buffaloes' offensive scheme, although he will pull off a rushing touchdown here and there. For fantasy purposes, he's a last resort on the waiver wire.

Set to open season under center Following the major knee injury for JT Shrout, Lewis will start the opener under center against FCS Northern Colorado on Sept. 3, Brian Howell of the Boulder Daily Camera reports.
Impact Lewis had been neck and neck with Shrout for the starting quarterback job to open the campaign, but Shrout's injury will exclude him from the competition the rest of the way. It's surely not the way Lewis had hoped to win the starting job, but he's now locked in under center, sporting very little experience to date. The freshman appeared in just one game last season, completing six of his 10 pass attempts for 95 yards while also running for 73 yards and a score on nine carries. Freshman Drew Carter and walk-on Jordan Woolverton are the only quarterbacks on the roster for the Buffs at this point, leaving the room thinned out a bit heading into 2021.
