Colorado had built up a 21-7 halftime lead on two touchdown passes by quarterack David Williams and a one-yard run by Terry Kunz.

BUT THE Buffaloes, who played near-flawless football in the first half, fell apart in the third quarter when they twice lost the ball deep in their own territory and had a punt blocked to set up the Lon-ghorns' thrilling comeback. Texas linebacker Bill Hamilton recovered a fumble at Colorado's 34-yard line on the first play of the third quarter to set up Jimmy Walker's three-yard touchdown run seven plays later. After being pushed back to their 25 on the next series, the Buffaloes tried to punt but Texas defensive end Tim Campbell blocked the kick, chased it into the end zone and recovered it for a touchdown. THAT MADE it 21-19, with Colorado clinging to the lead.
