So, are you still savoring the Buffs’ 36-14 win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers, or are you ready to move on the Rocky Mountain Showdown? 

I am joined for this podcast by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we are going to take a few extra minutes on this episode to revel in CU’s huge win over the Big Red from Lincoln. We will also break down the game against the Cornhuskers into what elements of CU's performance we feel could be rated as Excellent, what was merely Satisfactory, and what are areas which still Need Improvement. 

We will then move on to our “T.I.P.S.” for the renewal of the rivalry against Colorado State. The Buffs have won five straight in the series overall, but the teams haven’t met since 2019. We will review the Blackout game in terms of Talent, Intangibles, Preparation, and Statistics, before giving you our predictions for the game. 

So ... Are the handful of first-team All-Mountain West performers in the CSU lineup enough to make it a game? ... Will the Rams have a big enough chip on their shoulder, or will the Buffs have too great of a hangover, to give CSU a chance at an upset? ... Will the extra week of preparation - yes, CSU had a bye week last week - give the Rams an added advantage? ... And are there any stats from the games played to date which could lead you to believe that the 23.5-point spread is way too great? 

Let’s find out ...
