Is Colorado playing today? The Buffaloes' college football schedule for Week 6

From the moment the wheels of Deion Sanders' jet touched down in suburban Denver in December 2022, Colorado was one of the most followed teams in all of college football.

A program that had languished in national insignificance is now the subject of sustained interest. When a school hires one of the most talented and charismatic athletes in the history of American sports to lead its football team, it's a happy side effect.

After a disappointing 4-8 record in 2023, the Buffs are 4-1 with two wins in just their third bowl appearance since 2008. They boast two of the sport's brightest stars in Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders, both of whom are widely considered to be top-10 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft.
