How confident are we that we can still become bowl eligible?

And Utah…I heard that The Buffs are going to beat them too.
If we beat Utah, I’ll be shocked. But hey, 3 game win streak to end the season…..

I attribute my hopium to the bottle of heavily caffeinated Stumptown cold brew to try and get moving to knock out some to-do’s before game time.
Wheb this team **** the bed vs Stanford, they guaranteed themselves 4-8What about if WSU Cougs it?
I understand if you are a CB why you would want to come to CU and play ball, but why should any lineman want to come play ball here ??? If I am a high school OL or DL I am looking at that coaching job this year and saying, I see no improvement with that team as the year progressed.
Because the path to playing time in front of you will be wide open. Especially if youre more talented then the few players who are here now. The trick is getting the first few guys and the right OL coach who can convince them.
There is this old saying: “its not about the Xs and Os. Its about the Jimmys and the Joes”. Studly players make coaching easy.
The real problem for us is the NIL at other schools is bigger and pays OL better then we can.
CAN become bowl eligible? 100%
WILL become bowl eligible? 10%
They can beat WSU but they’ll need Utah to pack it in
That would be a story, wouldn't it.
Right now, 10 teams in the PAC-12 can go bowling and we are one of them. The winner of CU v. Wazzu has a shot but will have to play Washington if Wazzu wins or Utah if CU wins to go bowling. PFF thinks Utah isn't that much better than us. Hopefully we can win. Cal has to beat Stanford and UCLA.
I am confident we are still eligible.

I thought we played really well yesterday. I'm actually more confident about it than I have been since the Stanford debacle.
It was two games against two of the three best defensive fronts we faced all year, and two of the better fronts in the country. We are not set up to handle that kind of opposition strength, so it’s no wonder why we looked substantially better yesterday.
And Oregon st is friggin top 10 now.
Prime's pretty unlucky to catch the P12 in its best season ever for his first season. He ****ed up our chances for a bowl on his own, but damn, sucks to go out like we came in.
My cousin is an Oregon alum and he's a touch concerned about this years version of the Civil War.
Will be a helluva game but damn that two game stretch for Oregon State is brutal. Vs. Washington Saturday and @ Oregon Friday the following week.
It just depends. If they aren't enough 6 win teams, we could get added if we have 5 wins
Selection is made in part based on APR/graduation rates. With the turnover we have had I don't think we would have a chance.
In true Buff fashion we'll somehow find a way to beat WSU then get absolutely Hulk Smashed by Utah leaving the Stanford debacle to be discussed/lamented ad nauseum for years to come.
Our APR is 959 which is decent but so many schools are ahead of us
Pac-12 made a conference rule that members could not participate in the postseason with a 5-7 record because... fvck if I know other than typical Pac-12 valuing something cooked up in an ivory tower over football brand exposure, positive recruiting impact and a great student athlete experience.
