Colorado Buffaloes Defeat Utah 49-24

Deion Sanders and the No. 17 Colorado Buffaloes secured a significant 49-24 victory over Utah, marking their eighth win of the season and solidifying their position as serious contenders for the Big 12 championship and the College Football Playoff. Colorado's defense shined, recording nine tackles for loss, four sacks, and three interceptions, while quarterback Shedeur Sanders threw for 340 yards and three touchdowns. Meanwhile, Kansas, coming off an upset victory against No. 6 BYU, poses a threat as they aim to spoil Colorado's season, having already achieved back-to-back wins over ranked opponents. The Jayhawks, with a 2-6 start, must capitalize on their momentum to disrupt Colorado's offensive strategy, particularly targeting standout players like Travis Hunter. As both teams prepare for their matchup, the stakes are high; Colorado needs to win their final games to secure a spot in the conference title game. The outcome of this clash could significantly impact both teams' playoff aspirations.
