BOULDER, Colo. (AP) - Chris Ogbonnaya's sweet blend of speed and
strength put Texas in the end zone and kept Colorado out.
Ogbonnaya scored two touchdowns and saved another in the
fifth-ranked Longhorns' 38-14 rout of the Buffaloes on Saturday
night.
The oft-overlooked senior running back scored on a 65-yard
dump-off and a 13-yard gallop through the befuddled Buffs' defense,
then saved a score when he chased down cornerback Jalil Brown at
the Texas 16 after a rare interception of Colt McCoy, who was
picked off twice.
