Sept 1971. I was there. Joe started against Wyoming at Folsom. First game
Ever with artificial turf at Folsom. He had a great game. Ken Johnson was injured after the win at LSU (31-21) so Joe D played the whole game. Ran for over 100 and threw for over 100. There was a huge snowstorm the day or two before the game. I remember walking into Folsom as a 13 ish year old with my dad and entranced with the bright green AstroTurf field in the middle of a sea of white snow. It had stopped snowing but was a hazy day. It was a little eerie. Big crowd. CU hung 50 plus on Wyo. No contest. Went on to beat Ohio State and Woody the next week in Columbus 20-14.
