The Buffaloes will roam in flyover country once again.
This week, Brett McMurphy’s tweets came fast and furious, culminating in the official news on Thursday that the University of Colorado is set to leave the Pac-12 to return to the Big 12 after 13 years. CU will join ahead of the 2024-25 athletic season.
Earlier this summer, we ran an Intro to the Big 12 series for BYU, UCF, Houston and Cincinnati. So I thought I’d do a modified Re-Intro for the returning Buffaloes.
Colorado’s History with Oklahoma State
The two schools spent 51 seasons in the same conference (both in the Big Eight and Big 12) before CU left for Pacific waters.
