CU At The Game Podcast – “T.I.P.S.” for CU v. No. 23 Arizona / Can the Buffs Bring Home a Win on Senior Day?
—
First, before we talk football, a tip of the CU at the Game hat to the Colorado women’s basketball team. The 20th-ranked Buffs opened their season with a 92-78 win in Las Vegas over the No. 1 ranked – and defending national champion – LSU Tigers. The win represents the second time the CU women’s team has knocked off a No. 1 team, with the other coming in 2021 against Stanford, and the victory certainly bodes well for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign.
I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we will review CU’s 26-19 loss to No. 16 Oregon State. As is our custom for the post-mortem on a game, we give our grades for what about CU’s effort was Excellent, what was Satisfactory, and what still Needs Improvement.
We will then move on to our “T.I.P.S.” for the upcoming matchup against No. 23 Arizona. Our preview will look at the game from the perspectives of Talent, Intangibles, Preparation, and Statistics, before giving you our predictions for the game which will be played before a sellout crowd at Folsom Field on Senior Day.
So … Can the Colorado coaching staff finally find a way to protect its most precious resource, quarterback Shedeur Sanders? Or, will the most sacked quarterback in the FBS continue to be harassed by opposing defenses? … Is it possible that Arizona, which has played five straight games against ranked opponents, winning the last three, will be looking past the Buffs? … Can the Buffs find enough defensive and special teams magic to assist CU’s struggling offense, enough to cobble together enough points to send the Buff Nation home happy, with a victory in the final home game of the season?
Let’s find out …
