College Football Week 2 Top Moments: Oregon-Ohio State, Texas A&M-Colorado, more

College football's Week 2 featured Oregon upsetting Ohio State, Texas A&M escaping, and a Hail Mary. Here are the top moments!

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021

Brendon Lewis - 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.

Jarek Broussard - Leaves game with undisclosed injury Broussard suffered an injury in the third quarter and walked off the field under his own power in Saturday's loss to Texas A&M. Before leaving the game, he rushed 12 times for 51 y...

Impact There's no new information about the Buffaloes' star rusher currently. The fact that he did not require extra assistance in leaving the field is a good sign, but he did not return to the game.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2021

Deion Smith - Part of backfield mix Smith (knee) had four carries for 32 yards and a touchdown against Northern Colorado.

Impact A knee injury sidelined Smith for 2020 but he was ready for the opener. Smith made the most of his four carries, averaging eight yards per attempts and finding the end zone for the first time at Colorado. The Buffs draw a tough matchup Saturday against Texas A&M, however.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Montana Lemonious-Craig - Records sole touchdown catch Lemoious-Craig caught two passes for 23 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 35-7 win over Northern Colorado.

Impact The freshman's playing time was no surprise, as the team often delved deep into their depth chart during this tune-up game. His 17-yard catch was impressive, and Brandon Lewis looked his way several times. Although Colorado is a run-first team, his performance could shake things up on the depth chart.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alex Fontenot - Strong showing in opening game Fontenot rushed eight times for 40 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 35-7 win over Northern Colorado. He also caught one pass for two yards.

Impact A cavalcade of backs made appearances in this decisive win, but Fontenot's night was the most encouraging, as the junior missed all of the 2020 season due to injury. Although guys like Ashaad Clayton and Deion Smith could push him for time, he is the front runner to spell Jarek Broussard.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jarek Broussard - Logs 94 yards and a score in win Broussard rushed 15 times for 94 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 35-7 win over Northern Colorado. He also caught one pass for seven yards.

Impact Against tougher opponents, you can expect to see Broussard as the bell-cow back, but with the game well in hand. Broussard shared the wealth with four other running backs, three of whom scored. He should be heavily utilized against Texas A&M in Week 2.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Brendon Lewis - 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.
