The Colorado Buffaloes are a surprising 3-0 on the season. Considering the upcoming opponent on Saturday, they’re heavily favored to make that four games undefeated.
The Buffs opened as 3-point favorites over the Arizona Wildcats, but that line has since ballooned to 7.5-points and figures to keep growing. OddsShark, for example, projects the game to be 14-point Colorado win.
None of this to say the Buffs are a juggernaut beating up everyone in the Pac-12 South. CU certainly has impressed, but that’s compared to the low expectations we had for a team with seven first-time starters on offense and a first-year head coach.
