Either way I have a feeling Montes is going to see a lot of action this season.
Hopefully that happens while we win. Would make me feel a lot more confident in 2017.
Whatever it is, it didn't look good. Ankles linger too, so if he plays, it most likely won't be 100.
At most Sefo misses this week. With ankle sprains its about pain management and Sefo doesn't care about pain.
Update:
YPA 2016: 10.1 [-.1] (7th [+5])
QBR 2016: 79.0 [3.1] (13th [+14])
Yea, that's a big time player. He got better or suffered little drop off despite playing the #4 team on the road and getting no help from the running game and having his receivers drop a few catchable, if not perfect, balls.
And that last pass he threw was a dime even with the ankle already being hurt. Kid is just so improved and has the kind of mentality we need across the team. tough as nails. Get well Sefo because this is a bowl year with you
Through 3 games, Sefo is the nation's #7 rated passer with a rating of 182.
He did not practice yesterday, will not know about today until later.
But during the offseason he was the most hated of the hated. Well, almost.

I think fans didn't understand how much his injury effected him. They blamed his slow release and accuracy on his ability to read a D and not on his inability to plant and throw. Hopefully they now see he hadn't regressed, but was just hurt. That said, fans will see what they want.
I hope that this injury will finally convince him to protect himself a little more. Stop trying to run the ball like a fullback. Take what you can get and slide or get out of bounds. If nothing else try to slip the hit instead of taking it straight on.
Sefo is much more important to this team than the extra few yards he gets trying to challenge tacklers.

Not sure anybody in here right now doubts the passion and ability Sefo has to give to the rise of this program yet this season. Can't stand some of the armchair QBs in here who begged the Lord for Davis Webb. **** Webb, not because he decommited, but because he even thought about trying to be a Buff. Sefo's commitment and toughness is outstanding. Here's to hoping his ankle is the same as he is.

For me, Webb would have allowed Sefo to heal. Now I hope he was fully healed. Regardless, our QB depth is an issue and the Juco or Webb would have looked pretty sweet right now going into a game against Oregon that I never would have put in the winnable column 4 weeks ago. I can't bash Webb, and think he might of seen Sefo and realized he could be second string.

I have been a very vocal critic. Hard to find much wrong with his performance this year. Hope the ankle heals quickly.

apparantly he was in full pads yesterday and looked better than he has thus far.
Here's to hoping he will be available.

It's a ruse. Ask Darth.
No need to beg. Pardon granted.

He's such a badass. To come in on an injured ankle and throw a perfect 70 yd bomb should go down in the annals of CU lore.
Will anyone other than Sefo get even a single vote for the heart award?
They need to rename it the Sefo Liufau Heart Award.
And yet, it can't even receive a mention in ESPN's game summary.
Well when the narrative is that Michigan is back and is ready to roll the Big-10 on its way to a playoff bid, talking about how a QB that could barely stand burned their "elite" secondary for a 70yd TD pass doesn't help.
I know I'm saying nothing new here, and essentially repeating your point...
...but the ESPN agenda has become such a disservice to a great game.
Every Saturday great moments are lost and stories are untold, I'm certain, because they don't fit the convenient narrative.
EDIT: Which isn't to say that Brady and Harbs (JFC) tossing isn't a great story.
