Official Buffs vs. UCLA Score Prediction Thread

I'm not sure if the Buffs will cover the 11, but I think Colorado will win. Speight is a very decent QB and will probably start. Buffs gotta lay some early hurt on his sore back.
Not often you hear how "very" decent someone is.....
 
I'd like to just point out the fact that bitching about what happens when we're blowing a team out is such a first world problem compared to the depths of where we were just a few short years ago.
I don't care about running up the score, but I do care about getting backups quality reps....ours do not because of the current coaching mindset.
 
Buffs now -9/-9.5 in many places.

Buy, Billy Ray, Buy!
Is that because of something in particular about the teams this week...or because too many people are taking UCLA and points because, like me, they still can’t fathom a double digit victory over a PAC-12 team?
 
I thought the spread was too high at 11. I feel it is closer to 8 or 9. Their opponents records are a combined 10-1. Ours is 1-10. I think we win, but I think it's closer than people would like.
 
Nice!

Sharp money moves lines. Winning players the books respect have made serious wagers on the initial UCLA +10.5/+11 lines. UCLA +10/+10.5 was getting a lot from this crowd too so the books made a stand at UCLA +9/+9.5.

This is a bridge too far IMO. I think CU wins the game with enough frequency by low double digits (10-12) to make 10/10.5 a bad number for CU.

Now that CU at home can win by 10 and still cover, this is a buy sign for CU.
 
Ouch. History not on our side. I still like our chances. On a separate note, why have we only had 6 bye weeks when other schools have had as many as 14?

Edit:They fixed the OSU record.

I thought the game against OSU was added in place of a bye week to pay down payouts and didn't one get lost with the floods that canceled the Fresno State game?

The Hell with that. I want to know how OSU has managed 83 games after bye weeks since 2011.
