I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we will review CU’s final trip to the Rose Bowl as a member of the Pac-12. The Buffs fell to No. 23 UCLA, 28-16, and we will do the post-mortem on the game, giving out our grades for what about the CU 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. 16 Oregon State. Our preview will look at the game from the perspectives of Talent, Intangibles, Preparation, and Statistics, before giving you our predictions for the game to be played before a sellout crowd at Folsom Field for Homecoming.

So ... Can the Colorado coaching staff 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? ... Will the Buffs come up with a defensive game plan to stop Oregon State running back Damien Martinez, who has been a force for the Beavers this season - and who had over 170 yards and three touchdowns rushing the last time CU played Oregon State? ... Will the Buffs be able to regain a little Folsom Field magic, and restore the nation’s faith in Coach Prime and Co.? Or, will the national narrative about the Buffs continue to sour as the calendar turns to November?

Let’s find out...
