Overview
- Sanders confirmed Tuesday that Julian Lewis will start at West Virginia, making him Colorado’s third different starting quarterback this season.
- Lewis, a former five-star who flipped from USC after reclassifying, relieved against Arizona and went 9-of-17 for 121 yards with his first touchdown.
- Colorado sits at 3-6 and needs three straight wins to become bowl eligible after consecutive blowout losses.
- Lewis has appeared in two games and can play two more without burning a redshirt, and Sanders said the quarterback is healthy after a late hand scare.
- Sanders said Kaidon Salter will probably serve as the backup, and West Virginia is also turning to a freshman starter in Scotty Fox Jr.
