LOS ANGELES — Colorado coach Karl Dorrell didn't shy away from the topic of expectations during Friday's Pac-12 Media Day at the Novo Theater.
Dorrell, heading into his third year as the Buffaloes' head coach, knows his team was picked by the media to finish last this year in the Pac-12. He knows the perception that comes with a lengthy list of departures via the transfer portal (even though the majority of those transfers ended up taking a step down on the college football ladder).
But Dorrell, who brings an 8-10 record at CU into his third season in Boulder, made it clear he believes his Buffs will be better — much better — than the preseason prognostications.
