The Colorado Buffaloes have certainly been favored in a number of games over the past few seasons but being a 2.5 touchdown favorite over a Pac-12 Conference opponent, or any FBS team for that matter, is not something we have grown accustomed to. Nonetheless, the line for the Buffaloes contest against the Beavers this weekend has opened at -16.5 and I don't think we'll see much fluctuation if either Liufau or Montez starts.
So far this season the Buffaloes have covered every spread they've been given by pretty comfortable margins. Last season, they were able to march into Corvallis and earn their only Pac-12 win of the season in what turned out to be a thrilling game.
