No. 1 Broncos earn home field advantage in the playoff
Dec 31st
The Broncos knew the No. 1 seed was on the line. And they were ready. The defense forced Kansas City into a three-and-out. The offense cut through the Chiefs’ defense like a lawn mower.
Knowshon Moreno finished off a 69-yard drive by running the ball in for the 7-0 lead. Ryan Succup hit a 22-yard field goal for KC and the Broncos answered with back-to-back touchdowns from Peyton Manning to Eric Decker.
Payton Manning sets up for a pass against Kansas City
In the second half, Manning connected with Demaryius Thomas in the back of the end zone for a miraculous touchdown catch, Lance Ball rushed one over the goal line and Matt Prater tacked on a field goal to blowout Kansas City 38-3 and win their 11th straight game.
Denver finished the season 13-3 and the No. 1 seed in the AFC, meaning the road to the Super Bowl goes through the Mile High City.
You could argue that the Chiefs, who have won only two games, weren’t trying too hard; they lost the game but won the right first pick in the draft due to their terrible season. No point in ruining that.

The Buffaloes are 11-0 and one of only four remaining unbeaten teams in NCAA Division I – all of which reside in the AP top 25 (No. 1 UConn, No. 3 Duke, No. 13 Oklahoma State).
The Buffaloes have a long history of rankings in the AP poll, dating back to the 1980-81 season. This week’s ranking marks the 161st time Colorado has appeared in the AP poll, trailing only Stanford, USC and UCLA among Pac-12 Conference schools. The current three-week run in the poll is the Buffaloes longest since a four-week stretch from Dec. 24, 2007-Jan. 14, 2008.
The USA Today Sports Coaches poll is scheduled to be released on Tuesday. The Buffaloes haven’t been ranked in that poll since April 2004. CU received 34 votes from the coaches’ poll last week, sitting in the second spot of teams receiving votes outside the top 25.
Colorado will open Pac-12 Conference play this weekend with a pair of top-10 opponents coming to Boulder. The Buffaloes host defending league champion and current No. 4 ranked Stanford on Friday, Jan. 4, at 8 p.m. and then will welcome in No. 7 California on Sunday, Jan. 6, at 12 p.m.
