Over the summer, I asked Colorado's Sefo Liufau if he thought the Buffaloes could surprise some people this season.
"I honestly don't think we'll sneak up on people," the junior quarterback said. "Maybe from a media perspective we'll sneak up on people, but I think teams last year saw how we fought through the whole game and we didn't quit."
Liufau's right.
Coming off a 2-10 season, the Buffaloes don't have much respect in the media, or from the general public. I haven't come across a preview magazine or website yet that picks the Buffs to finish anywhere but sixth in the Pac-12 South Division.
