CU At The Game Podcast – “T.I.P.S.” for CU v. Baylor: A “White Out” Homecoming
—
Welcome to the 150th episode of the CU at the Game podcast! We’re now well into Season Five, and I am pleased to be joined for this review/preview episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we will be giving you our “T.I.P.S., our preview for CU’s first Big 12 game since 2010, with the Buffs taking on Baylor in a “White Out” in Boulder (6:00 p.m., MT, Fox).
Before we do our preview, though, we will be breaking down what was “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” about CU’s 28-9 win over CSU in Ft. Collins, the last Rocky Mountain Showdown until 2029.
Then … We move to the Baylor Bears.
For those new to the podcast, or in need of a refresher, our “T.I.P.S.” previews are broken down into categories:
T- Talent – What CU’s opponents are bringing to the game; which matchups may prove crucial;
I – Intangibles – What off the field issues may impact the outcome;
P – Preparation/Schedule – How the calendar and the weather may play a role; and
S – Statistics – What numbers should Buff fans be on the lookout for in determining the outcome.
After going through our preview, we will each give you our prediction for the game.
So … Was CU’s big win over CSU an anomaly, or have the Buffs turned the corner on running the ball and protecting the passer? … Is the Baylor defense, ranked 12th in the nation in scoring defense, after being ranked 113th in that same category last season, that much better, or are the Bears’ stats more a reflection of their non-conference opposition? … Can the Buffs bring home a big Homecoming win, starting the 2024 Big 12 campaign with a victory? …
Let’s find out …

Stuart, FYI. The weather outlook has changed since you gents did the podcast. We’re apparently going to get clobbered by an upslope storm with lots of rain (and snow in the mountains). That may have a big impact on the game!
Didn’t miss it. It was at 35% when Coach Prime had his press conference (that was a fun exchange).
Heard this morning from my friend who I go to games with … he sounded worried about going.
I told him that my investment, both financial (plane ticket, game ticket, rental car) and emotional investment was waaaaay more important than any discomfort.
Hopefully, Coach Prime will now run some wet ball drills ….
Well, living in Montana, you know all about wearing layers! I’ll be there as well…now I need to figure out how to wear white while not freezing the death!
