Driving in his truck on the way home from Saturday’s game against Iowa State, Colorado defensive coordinator Robert Livingston couldn’t help but smile. For the first time this season, the Buffaloes finished on top in a close game against a good opponent, out-playing then-No. 22 Iowa State down the stretch for a 24-17 win. “The part that kind of makes you smirk in the truck on the way home is it was the third time we’ve really been in that same situation,” he said, referring to late stumbles in losses to BYU and TCU the previous two weeks. “To finish…

The Lithuanian center collected the ball and quickly passed it to the Serbian center — the original intended target. But Jokic had limited options with both Kawhi Leonard and Ivica Zubac sitting back in the paint, unconcerned…

Rapidly rising water levels and the major flood threat caused town and county officials to issue a mandatory evacuation order for all residents living along Hermosa…
