Colorado DC worried about Cam Miller

The Colorado Buffaloes vs. North Dakota State game is set for kickoff at 8 p.m. ET. Heading into the game, Buffaloes' defensive coordinator Robert Livingston heaped praise on Cam Miller and said he is a challenge for their defense.

"I can't say enough about the quarterbacks. Obviously, they had a two-quarterback system last year and Wyoming was very similar if you go back and look at it. I think No. 7 (Cam Miller) runs better than you'd anticipate and No. 9 (Cole Payton) is a phenomenal athlete," Livingston said, via Coloradon.

"We have our hands full. We have to tackle, get off blocks and play fast. Again, can't talk enough about the culture they've built there. You watch those guys get off the ball, whether it's the 1's (starters) or the 3's (backups) in some of the blowouts, and it's a consistent effort. It's a really phenomenal challenge that we're excited for."

Colorado will then go on the road to play Nebraska in Week 2. North Dakota State, on their side, host Tennessee State in Week 2.
