    The ESPN "College GameDay" crew revealed their predictions for some of the biggest Week 7 matchups during the live broadcast from Eugene, Oregon.

    On the show, the crew debated the winners of No. 2 Ohio State versus No. 3 Oregon, No. 9 Ole Miss versus No. 13 LSU, and several other key games.

    Toward the end of the show, they predicted the outcome of No. 18 Kansas State versus Colorado. The entire "College GameDay" panel picked the Buffaloes to pull off the upset, but all of them were wrong.

    The Buffaloes lost 31-28 to the Wildcats, dropping to 4-2 on the year and ending their three-game win streak.

    Colorado entered the game as a 3.5-point underdog, which proved to be a spot-on betting line by the oddsmakers.

    The consensus among the "College GameDay" panel, which included Desmond Howard, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee, and Kirk Herbstreit, was that Colorado's momentum and home-field advantage would help the Buffaloes overtake the Wildcats.

    Although Colorado's crowd was a factor, Kansas State's dominant running game proved to be the key difference. The Wildcats tallied 185 rushing yards, while the Buffaloes managed just -29 yards on the ground.

    Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders had a strong showing through the air, throwing for 388 yards and three touchdowns on 34-of-40 passing.

    However, Sanders was sacked six times, losing 50 yards in the process.

    Another setback for Colorado was the loss of two-way star Travis Hunter, who left the game with an apparent shoulder injury in the first half and did not return.
