Teams that are considering the conference switch should take a serious look at Colorado before making any move. Last season, Colorado announced it would leave the Big XII conference for the greener pastures of the newly configured Pac-12. Well the transition has been anything but smooth for the anemic Buffaloes. Colorado is an abysmal 1-8 with no conference wins in its inaugural Pac-12 season. The low point thus far was a 2-45 loss to Oregon in which after the...

Buffs opt for QB Hansen over Hawkins’ son

In a long-overdue move, Colorado Coach Dan Hawkins finally demoted his son and former starter Cody Hawkins to 2nd string.

Buffs snag USC’s Patterson

The Colorado Buffaloes are next in the receiving line of USC transfers as WR Travon Patterson is headed to the Centennial State. The senior WR never got a chance to shine at USC being he was buried in the depth chart of the talented rich WR pool. As a Trojan, the speedster did return punts and saw some special teams playing time but as a WR he only amassed 10 catches for 96 yards, hardly NFL material.  Though he only...

When he was confronted, he stated that the bike wasn’t...
