Colorado Buffaloes defensive coordinator Robert Livingston has done a remarkable job since he was hired by head coach Deion Sanders last winter. CU’s defense improved in most statistical categories, translating to overall team success. However, Livingston has another challenge to close his first year in Boulder.
On Tuesday, the former Cincinnati Bengals secondary coach spoke to the media to discuss the BYU Cougars, who will challenge Colorado in the Alamo Bowl on Dec. 28.
“They do a great job,” Livingston noted of BYU. “The quarterback’s (Jake Retzlaff) a great player. It’s a phenomenal challenge.”
With the Big 12 heavyweight showdown around the corner, Livingston shared high praise for the Cougars and encouragement for the Buffs’ graduating class.
“I’m excited for these guys,” Livingston said. “It’s just all about the seniors. I’ll do everything in my power to send them off the right way.”
Livingston also mentioned that players who redshirted during the 2024 season, such as linebacker Jeremiah Brown, may be used situationally in the Alamo Bowl.
