2023 & On - College FOOTBAW Thread

Colorado didn't show much different that they showed last year. They beat NDSU 31-26 but had to have Sanders throw for 445 on 34 passes (with talent clearly superior to NDU's defense) while NDSU's QB Cam Miller was ripping them to shreds through the air by mostly not targeting Travis Hunter's area.

Colorado is going to be in for another tough year if their defense can't stop the pass, they struggle to run the ball, and need Sanders to win shootouts with his throwing arm against defenses that will have better physical talent in the coming weeks.
