Rumors of Internal trouble seeped out ot Boulder, Coach Bunny Bun-ny Oaket 'wtt reportedly asked to resign and then the Buffs, to the surprise of all gridiron followers, rose to the height and won a game. New It may b that Colorado Is really on the road back to where It should have been when the season opened, or It may ba that th vleterle aver Colorado Aggiet sad Wyoming were of the easy variety. The contett In the Utah stadium should really provide the answer to a couple of questions which conference con-ference followers have been asking ask-ing since last Saturday: "Is Colorado Colo-rado a power which must be reckoned reck-oned with in the conference?" and "Is Utah really a great team or did the Utes have all the breaks in tying Santa Clara and waltzing through a comparatively 'soft' schedule until a tough team (Denver (Den-ver i came along?" Whatever the verdict may be, It is evident that Utah fans are deeply Interested In the final outcome, out-come, for Theron S.
