00:03 - Let's be honest with ourselves.
00:04 If Deion Sanders never actually shows up
00:06 in Boulder, Colorado, this game is a footnote here.
00:09 But you know how big it's getting
00:10 with Colorado right now?
00:12 All the attention, you go to the
00:13 Fandul Sportsbook right now.
00:14 You go look at college football.
00:16 There is a tab that just says Colorado.
00:20 It is amazing how much eyeballs now
00:22 and how much fun we are having with the Buffaloes.
00:24 They sit as a 23 and a half point favorite
00:27 over Colorado State.
00:28 A total of 16 and a half.
00:30 All eyes on Colorado.
00:32 Now that you start to turn it to maybe the hunted team,
00:35 how do we react to Colorado?
00:37 Easy blowout victory this weekend.
00:38 Eyes on the horizon with much bigger challenges.
00:41 Talk to me, Colorado State and Colorado.
00:44 - DRS, you mentioned the much bigger challenges.
00:46 The first time we're really going to see
00:48 the Buffs challenge.
00:49 I thought it was going to be Nebraska last weekend.
00:51 Hand up, I was incredibly incorrect.
00:54 Is next weekend in Eugene.
00:56 Currently the Buffs a 14 and a half point underdog
00:59 against Oregon and those Ducks.
01:02 But here 23 and a half in favor of the Buffaloes.
01:06 DRS, you could make an argument that every game so far here
01:09 in the non-conference slate for Colorado
01:11 deserves the notoriety it has received.
01:14 The opener against the reigning national runner-ups
01:17 in TCU in Colorado makes a statement to open up the season.
01:21 The renewal of a big eight rivalry against Nebraska
01:24 in the home opener of the prime era
01:27 under Deion Sanders in Boulder.
01:29 And now a rivalry for the 92nd all-time meeting
01:33 between these two, it is Colorado and Colorado State
01:36 in the Rocky Mountain Showdown.
01:38 The first meeting DRS since 2019,
01:41 Colorado won that football game 52-31,
01:44 but things were a little bit better
01:46 for Colorado during that time.
01:48 They were a one-win football team, DRS.
01:50 Last season, they have already doubled that.
01:52 And you mentioned that Colorado tab
01:54 on the FanDuel Sportsbook.
01:56 They're one of a few teams in the country
01:59 that the odds makers continue to update the win total.
02:02 It is now six and a half, and the over has the juice.
02:05 DRS, I'm looking at the total in this game.
02:08 Colorado State has played one football game only.
02:10 They had a bye week during the second weekend last year,
02:13 but they played against another Pac-12 team,
02:15 a good Washington State team that is now ranked.
02:18 Wazoo put up 50 points against Colorado State,
02:23 and Cam Ward, the quarterback for the Cougs,
02:26 threw for 450 yards.
02:28 Shador Sanders has his passing yards prop
02:31 reflecting that this weekend, 338 and a half,
02:34 but I'm not sure who is stopping them, DRS,
02:36 after 5-10 against TCU, 393 against Nebraska.
02:41 We know this offense under Sean Lewis
02:43 opened things up through the air.
02:46 Keep an eye on Xavier Weaver, the transfer from South Florida,
02:50 83 and a half, his receiving yards number.
02:53 He has been over in both games, including a buck 70
02:56 last week against the Cornhuskers.
02:58 I think Colorado airs it out.
03:00 I think we see more points out of the buffs.
03:03 I think we see a total over, and I
03:05 would go Xavier Weaver over 83 and a half receiving yards
03:09 as my best bet.
