The Pac-12 football season may have gotten off to a slow start in terms of canceled games, but head coach Karl Dorrell and the Colorado Buffaloes are optimistic about jumping off to a 2-0 record against conference opponents and interrupt Stanford’s twelve-year streak of home opener wins on Saturday. The Buffs head to Palo Alto after putting up an impressive 48 points against UCLA in a virtually empty Folsom Field last Saturday, while the Cardinal dropped its season opener to No. 11 Oregon in Eugene.
While the Buffs saw a lot of new faces making a significant impact in last week’s win over the Bruins, they spared no time looking forward to how they could improve upon the effort this week against a Stanford team that is consistently a bowl game threat; having been to the Rose Bowl three times in the last decade.
