SALT LAKE CITY — The wicked witch is dead.
Colorado hadn't won a road game in more than four years — a string of 24 consecutive losses outside the state, including a bowl game — when the Buffaloes trotted Friday afternoon into Rice-Eccles Stadium as a three-touchdown underdog to Utah.
After shocking the Utes 17-14, Colorado players didn't want to leave. There were so many hugs to give, especially to the 28 departing seniors.
