Still, the Buffs eked out a 31-26 victory, while Beck’s No. 1 Bulldogs dominated then-No. 14 Clemson 34-3.
Beck went 23-for-33 passing for 278 yards and two touchdowns.
Then, in Week 2, Beck only got better, albeit against Tennessee Tech. He completed 18 of 25 passes for 242 yards and five scores in a 48-3 win.
Meanwhile, Sanders and the Buffaloes suffered their first loss of the season, a 28-10 loss at Nebraska. Sanders was 23-for-38 passing for 244 yards, a touchdown and a pick.
He was sacked five times in that game and had -30 yards rushing, finishing with a QBR of 24.4.
Sanders also made headlines after the game, when he appeared to throw his offensive line under the bus, commenting to a reporter, “How many times did [Nebraska quarterback Dylan] Raiola get touched?”
Raiola was not sacked once against Colorado.
