Well, it looks like this year I’m finally going to bite the bullet and buy season tickets for my CU Buffs. The schedule was released yesterday and it looks pretty good:
Sept. 1 — vs. Colorado State
Sept. 8 — SACRAMENTO STATE
Sept. 15 — at Fresno State
Sept. 22 — at Washington State
Sept. 29 — UCLA
Oct. 11 — ARIZONA STATE (Thu.)
Oct. 20 — at Southern Cal
Oct. 27 — at Oregon
Nov. 3 — STANFORD
Nov. 10 — at Arizona
Nov. 17 — WASHINGTON
Nov. 23 — UTAH (Fri.)
(Home games in all caps)
By my count, there’s at least 6 wins on this schedule, with the potential for 8 or 9 (I’m working under the assumption that USC, Oregon and Stanford are pretty much locks for the loss column).
Yeah, I know my team went 3-10 last year and we’re losing our starting QB and RB, but there’s some pretty solid talent on this team and all the injuries last year let our freshmen get a ton of playing experience. Paul Richardson’s a monster and Connor Wood should be interesting at QB (assuming he beats out Hirschman for the job). I guess we’ll find out in about 8 months…
