Preparing for The John Denver Bowl in Boulder Thursday night, you might want to. . .

Read this: Denver Post writer John Henderson says the Mountaineers' loss to Pitt Dec. 1 just might be "the greatest choke job in the history of American sports."

Look at this: Back in 1982, supposedly because the University of Colorado Board of Regents wanted to mimic (?) the then-highly successful Pitt program, they moved to change the Buffaloes' uniform color to "Sky Blue" and represent that Rocky Mountain sky of Colorado. Luckily, the Buffs soon after switched to their black and gold ensemble, modernized just last season.

Fondly recall these: "Rocky" vs. "Country"
