ach Hugh Freeze isnt claiming to have a secret formula for beating Alabam

TUCSON, Ariz. -- Sefo Liufau has his groove back, and so does Colorados offense.It came at just the right time for the Buffaloes with a season-defining stretch up next.Liufau passed for three touchdowns and ran for another, helping No. 16 Colorado roll over Arizona 49-24 on Saturday night for the Buffaloes first four-game winning streak in 14 years.The victory keeps Colorado (8-2, 7-1 Pac-12, No. 12 CFP) atop the Pac-12 South with games against No. 23 Washington State and No. 13 Utah coming up to close out the regular season.Were right where we want to be, Lifau said.Liufau was sharp after being banged up against UCLA, hitting 19 of 27 passes for 213 yards, including two touchdowns to Shay Fields. Liufau also ran for a 2-yard score.Phillip Lindsay ran for 119 yards and three touchdowns, helping the Buffaloes to their best start since opening the 2001 season 8-2.It felt great, especially with the passing game; it has not been there, Fields said. Its something we stressed before this game.While Colorado is on course for the Pac-12 South title, Arizona (2-8, 0-7) is in the midst of its first seven-game losing streak since 2004.The Wildcats moved the ball well on offense but failed to capitalize on some early chances to allow Colorado to pull away.It hasnt been a great season, but were still going to come out and play, Arizona quarterback Brandon Dawkins said. Were not going to hand any teams any wins.Samajie Grant ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns and the Wildcats outgained Colorado 417-388 in total yards. Arizona also had 13 penalties for 143 yards and three drives that ended with missed field goals by Josh Pollack.Those are killers, Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said of the penalties. Its hard for us to stop somebody and we finally stop them, to give them a first down on a penalty with poor technique. Youre not a good football team when you do those things and you dont give yourself a chance to beat anybody.THE TAKEAWAYColorado: The Buffaloes played the way they were supposed to against a downtrodden opponent to remain a game ahead of No. 13 Utah in the Pac-12 South.Arizona: The Wildcats defense was picked apart yet again and their offense was unable to capitalize on numerous chances. Arizona has two games left to avoid going winless in the Pac-12.LIUFAU-FIELDS CONNECTIONLiufau and Fields had a good thing going against one of the nations worst passing defenses.In the second quarter, Liufau hit Fields on a 47-yard pass, setting up Lindsay for a 4-yard touchdown run. Liufau followed that with a perfectly-placed pass to Fields for a 15-yard score that put the Buffaloes up 21-10.Fields added another score in the third quarter, a 27-yard catch that included a double move to get open and a broken tackle to get into the end zone.Fields finished with six catches for 108 yards.WILDCAT QUARTERBACKSArizona had both its top quarterbacks healthy again and they split time.Dawkins threw for 107 yards on 9-of-19 passing and ran for 81 yards before coming out late in the third quarter. Anu Solomon was 3 of 7 for 48 yards passing and ran for 11 yards before being replaced by Khalil Tate in the final three minutes.Brandon has run the ball well. Hes throwing the ball well, albeit the protection was breaking down, Rodriguez said. I think Anu went in there and did some good stuff. I may start him this week, but its better to watch the film so I can truly judge his performance.UP NEXTColorado hosts No. 23 Washington State next Saturday before its showdown against the Utes on Nov 26.Arizona plays at Oregon State next Saturday, then closes out the season against rival Arizona State.Demarcus Lawrence Cowboys Jersey .

Now, Alabama is trying to change its approach going into Saturdays visit to the 19th-ranked Rebels.Alabama players are bypassing the grudge match talk, and mostly downplaying the added motivation of the latest rematch Saturday. Coach Nick Saban said last years team was anxious going into this game, and it showed.The result was a five-turnover performance, including two fumbled kick returns, in a 43-37 loss.I feel like we put too much pressure, too much emphasis on revenge and all that stuff, so we are definitely not focusing on anything like that this year, Alabama defensive end Jonathan Allen said Monday. We are just focusing on playing well.The Tide (2-0) has rebounded from both losses to win out heading into the playoffs, including last seasons run to the national title. No Saban team has ever lost to the same opponent three straight times.Alabama veterans have unhappy memories from their last trip to Oxford, Mississippi, which ended with Rebels fans storming the field to celebrate the upset. The 2015 meeting included Chad Kellys bobble and essentially blind 66-yard touchdown pass that bounced off defensive back Minkah Fitzpatricks helmet and into the arms of Quincy Adeboyejo.Kelly and the Rebels also made a number of big plays that didnt require a fortuitous bounce but Alabama players still left Bryant-Denny Stadium feeling like they beat themselves.Its not an experience theyre accustomed to these days. Most Tide players are sticking with the party line that its just another SEC West game and doesnt offer extra motivation with the back to back losses. Though Allen did say it lingered more than others in the offseason.ddddddddddddOf course, thats the only game we lost so definitely thats the one were going to focus the most on, he said. We definitely need to clean up our game.One similarity to the last meeting is Alabamas uncertain quarterback situation.Saban benched Jake Coker -- who started every other game -- in favor of Cooper Bateman against Ole Miss last season. Freshman Jalen Hurts has split time with redshirt freshman Blake Barnett in the first two games, both lopsided wins. But Hurts started against Western Kentucky and passed for 287 yards, drawing praise for his poise and leadership since his arrival in January from teammates.Saban isnt saying if that was enough to give Hurts a stranglehold on the starting job.In the meantime, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze isnt claiming to have a secret formula for beating Alabama. He said playing the Tide early is one equalizing factor when injuries sometimes havent taken a toll on depth, where `Bama typically has the advantage. Believing you can match their physical play is another factor.I think it is a combination of the confidence that has been set through playing them the four years we have been here and playing them early is advantageous, Freeze said.Kelly said really believing you can win is important.Thats really the key, having that mindset that you can accomplish anything, that you can go in any atmosphere and win regardless of the situation, the quarterback said. As long as you have a great mindset going in and execute, thats what it comes down to, execution.It certainly did last season. Ole Miss executed, Alabama oftentimes didnt.---AP Sports Writer David Brandt contributed to this report.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
