The University of Colorado is not known for its tailgating. That is not to say, however, that fans in the Buff Nation do not enjoy their pre-game activities. On October 2, 2010, the stars were all aligned for a great day in Boulder. The Georgia Bulldogs were in town, just the second team from the Southeast Conference to ever venture into Folsom Field. The weather was ideal 75 degrees under mostly sunny skies, with a 5:00 p.m. kickoff ready-made for an afternoon of celebration.

It all seemed predestined; preordained.

Colorado had come back from a 24-14 deficit to lead Georgia in the fourth quarter, 29-27.  The Buffs had the ball and the lead, and had taken almost nine minutes off of the fourth quarter clock in driving slowly, methodically – painfully – down the field. Yet just when it looked like Colorado might take the ball down for a game-clinching touchdown, the Buffs stalled.

A missed 52-yard field goal gave the ball back to Georgia at the Bulldogs’ 35-yard line. Over 3 1/2 minutes remained in the game, with one of the premier field goal kickers in the game, Blair Walsh, patrolling the Bulldog sideline, ready to take the field to give Georgia a hard-fought 30-29 victory.

How the Buffs could be guaranteed a bowl appearence almost every season …
