Another week for Colorado, another Top 25 opponent on the schedule.
The Buffs (1-8) will have likely faced the Pac-12 champion over this two week period. They lost 49-10 to No. 6 Oregon last week and square off with 8th-ranked USC this week. It’s a rough back-to-back for CU who’s struggling to get by under normal circumstances. If it’s any consolation for the Buffs, the Trojans are one of the only other FBS teams to allow over 400 yards per game. So, you’re saying there’s a chance? Not exactly.
For what the Trojans (8-1) have given up on defense they’ve certainly matched with an offensive attack ranked in the top ten, averaging 41 points per game.
