The Buffs managed to squeak into the final poll of the 2024-25 season

The voters have spoken. The Colorado Buffaloes are officially among the nation’s top teams for the 2024-25 college football season.

After a 9-4 finish to Deion Sanders’ sophomore season in Boulder, the Buffs managed to barely squeak into the final AP Poll of the season, ranking as the 25th-best team in the nation.

Colorado fell five spots in the poll from 20th to 25th after their blowout loss in the Alamo Bowl to BYU, but that wasn’t enough to knock them outside of the AP Poll. CU beat out teams like Navy, LSU and Louisville for the final spot on college football’s most prestigious poll.

Yes, CU’s season ended unceremoniously, but that doesn’t take away how good the Buffs were in 2024. After going 4-8 in 2023 and 1-11 in 2022, Sanders and company dragged CU back to relevance for their on-field performance in one year alone, crushing most of their Big 12 competition and bringing a Heisman Trophy back to Boulder.

This is now only the second time in the last 22 years that Colorado finished the season ranked, with the last time being in 2016 when the Buffs finished ranked 17th. Thanks to the efforts of players like Shedeur Sanders, Travis Hunter, Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig and many more, the foundation has been laid in Boulder, and now it’s time to build upon it.
