Shadeur Sanders TD pass puts Colorado up in fourth quarter

Shadeur Sanders gave Colorado its first lead since the end of the Colorado State game

Colorado had spent more than three quarters trailing Arizona State in its road Pac-12 game on Saturday.

The Buffaloes finally grabbed a lead at 21-17 when Shadeur Sanders threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Javon Antonio.

It was Antonio’s fourth catch as a senior. He practiced with the tight end group for the first time this week.

The Sun Devils hurt themselves on the 7-play drive by the Buffaloes. They were flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct due to a late hit on Sanders after a run.

The lead was Colorado’s first since the end of the Colorado State game.
