Steven Montez's introduction to big-time college football this past season was a disaster.
Colorado's freshman backup quarterback was called to action in a tight game at Michigan when starter Sefo Liufau went down to injury in the third quarter. Montez missed on all seven of his passes and rushed for minus-4 yards as the Buffaloes' chances for a red-letter upset collapsed in a 45-28 defeat.
Thankfully, his dad, Alfred, was there to console him and buoy his spirits.
"I talked to my dad and he said, 'You played horrible. I'm not going to sit here and lie to you and act like you didn't,'" Montez recalled.
