BOULDER — Almost overnight, the Colorado Buffaloes' season opener seems to have transformed from a day off in the distance to a point squarely on the immediate horizon.
Now, Karl Dorrell's Buffs have just 10 days before they open the season Sept. 3 under the lights against Northern Colorado at Folsom Field (7 p.m., Pac-12 Network).
That is still plenty of time to hone the edges, a priority for this week.
But next Monday, the Buffs will switch to game week mode and begin settling into the routine of the regular season.
