00:00A huge matchup in the Rumble in the Rockies on Saturday, bright

00:09and early mountain time there in Boulder, Colorado. And

00:13Colorado continues to show its favorable path to the college

00:17football playoff and a Big 12 championship game. Forty-nine,

00:22twenty-four, hammering a Utah team who has now lost six

00:26consecutive games. But CUDRS booked as a double-digit

00:31favorite for the first time in a while where they have not been

00:34a great double-digit favorite in the Deion Sanders era. They

00:38cover as a thirteen and a half point home favorite in Boulder

00:41against the Utes on Saturday afternoon. Yeah, you play who

00:45you play. I mean, it was, I thought it was a great move too

00:47because at the beginning of the season, you look at the the

00:49reinvigorated Big 12 which lost a lot of their competition. I

00:52thought it was a great move for Colorado as opposed to what you

00:54say going into the Big Ten, making a move to the Big 12

00:56instead because that's a division in a conference they

00:59can compete in. They lose in Nebraska early in the season

01:01which was a tough loss but you gotta credit Deion Sanders what

01:04he took over and what it's become and also again, you only

01:07play who's on your schedule. It's a very weak schedule that

01:09they played and also Utah was supposed to be maybe the best

01:11team in this conference due to injury. That's not Colorado's

01:14fault. They hammered it. It wasn't forty-nine, forty-eight

01:17like oh my goodness, we barely got by. This team looked like a

01:20team that's ready and destined to take on a Big 12

01:22championship game and get to the college football playoff.

01:24You play who you play on your schedule. Colorado's beating

01:26those teams. Kansas and Oklahoma State will be favored

01:29in both of those games. I would believe moving forward and

01:31there you go. Big 12 championship game for Deion.

01:34Coach of the year type stuff here.
