I don't know if Colorado's dominant win at CSU last week was a sign it might be better than expected or not.

Since Nebraska had their first game canceled, I have no idea how good they are. There's almost no way they could be worse than last season with Frost now at the helm.

I think this is going to be really close unless somebody gets turnover happy.

I don't follow either of these teams close enough to have any real clue, but if I were forced to bet I would take Colorado and the 4 points.

Naw, that stadium is going to give them the win. They are THIRSTY for their return and Frost represents that hope of past glory.

Nebraska is starting a true freshman QB and not having a game under their belt already to work out some of the kinks with a brand new QB and coaching staff seems like a disadvantage. Maybe home field will offset that, who knows. I'd still take Colorado plus the points.

I’m not sure if home field ever scored a touchdown.

Who has the more talented team across all 22 positions?

Nice start by the Buffs. Up 14-0 after scoring on their first two drives.

Nebraska is finally hanging onto the ball and not putting their defense in bad field position.

Colorado gets TD with 1:30 left in 3rd quarter. Could have gone for two and a possible tie; settle for the kick, trail 28-27. Nebraska WR drops pass in end zone to end the 3rd Q.

This has been a fairly decent matchup. Looking forward to see how this one ends.

Colorado with a big interception to get the ball back after a failed 4th down conversion.
