The year is 2018 and the Colorado Buffaloes are fifth place in the Pac-12 South. We thought we would have moved further from the basement by now, and we did for just one year, but the universe is pulling us back down, perhaps where we belong.
At 5-4 overall and 2-4 in the Pac-12, this disaster has been much better than the lost seasons of year’s past, but potentially missing a bowl game after starting 5-0 would certainly qualify as a collapse. However, there is some optimism if you really want it! Just as CU has been a disaster of late, so has everyone else in the Pac-12 South.
