00:02 - Utah, Colorado.

00:04 One of the trickiest spots on the board

00:06 because the most important player in this game

00:09 in terms of the side, in terms of the total

00:11 is Shidor Sanders.

00:13 And we don't know if he's playing in this game right now.

00:15 The total in this game is what's really caught my eye.

00:18 Utah's length, 21, 20 and a half,

00:19 depends where you're looking.

00:21 Total 46 and a half, 47.

00:23 Late last night, I saw a CU team total at 12 and a half.

00:27 If Shidor Sanders is playing in this game,

00:29 I'm on the over.

00:31 Utah's health team's under that number.

00:33 Colorado's not necessarily gone over in every single game.

00:36 You cannot book a pre-game team total

00:38 on Shidor Sanders at 12 and a half.

00:41 But we don't know if he's playing.

00:42 It is odd.

00:43 Again, I don't know if that's health-based,

00:46 if that's because the team is a mess.

00:48 But it is not, we don't believe at least,

00:50 with Shidor, well, he's leaving for the NFL thing

00:53 because Pops keeps saying he's coming back no matter what.

00:56 - I think it's a health thing

00:57 because we saw how banged up

00:59 that Colorado offensive line is.

01:01 Deion has been much to his chagrin

01:02 about this O-line all year long,

01:05 needing to hit the transfer portal

01:06 and fill up the Big Hog mollies.

01:08 It's not necessarily how things are done.

01:10 We'll see what the future is in Boulder.

01:13 Kev, to your point though, about Colorado,

01:15 the same that you made about Notre Dame,

01:17 one of the forgotten teams.

01:18 Colorado, of course, in the opening month of this year,

01:20 America's darling in terms of what they were able to do

01:23 to start out the prime era in Boulder.

01:26 Since that point, Colorado has lost five straight games,

01:29 but they've been an underdog, Joe, in four of them,

01:31 and they've covered in three of those four games.

01:33 As a dog this year, the Buffs, really, really good,

01:36 five and two against the number,

01:38 and uniquely enough for Utah.

01:40 They haven't played with Cam Rising all year long.

01:42 We know he will return for a seventh year

01:44 next year in Salt Lake as well.

01:47 Utah, the two-time defending Pac-12 champions

01:49 will not have an opportunity to make it three in a row,

01:52 but Lisa, they've only been a favorite three times

01:54 with Pac-12 play in their eight conference games this year.

01:57 They've covered in all three, though.

01:58 - Yeah, and they've dominated this series.

02:00 They've won six straight, the last four,

02:02 by an average margin of victory of 26 points per game.

02:06 Won this game last year 63 to 21,

02:10 but the fact that we're right around three touchdowns,

02:13 with the width of Shador Sanders,

02:14 I'm inclined to take the points in terms of this matchup.

02:18 Last regular season game,

02:19 you wanna get some of those younger players involved.

02:22 I lean to the Buffaloes here, Kev,

02:24 but I don't love this matchup.

02:25 - Can I, I know we're supposed to go fast.

02:27 - We gotta go fast, yeah.

02:28 - But the D-On season as a whole,

02:31 I can't tell you it's a failure,

02:33 went over the win total, shout out to the fellas,

02:35 and it was plus money three and a half as well,

02:37 but to go from four and two,

02:40 and finish this thing out at four and eight here,

02:42 I mean, I don't know if you can call it

02:43 a massive success anymore, can you?

02:46 (upbeat music)
