This is a huge opportunity for the Colorado Buffaloes to start off 2015. They will get an extra game on the schedule, meaning they’ll minimally have 13 chances to win six football games to get to bowl eligiblity (seven is preferable but UCLA got a waiver as a 6-7 team).
Their first test comes against Hawaii in the isles late Thursday night. The Buffs are expected to win. Colorado is improving and they would probably be two touchdown favorites at home.
