Rooney: Bowl within sight, but CU Buffs could run gamut in 2024
The CU Buffs, under Coach Deion Sanders, are set for a pivotal 2024 season with expectations for improvement after a tumultuous 2023 season that ended 4-8. With a roster overhaul largely completed, key players like quarterback Shedeur Sanders and all-around talent Travis Hunter signal a chance for the Buffs to contend for a bowl bid, needing a 6-6 record to qualify. However, inconsistency and injuries remain challenges, making predictions unpredictable—ranging anywhere from a solid 8-4 to another disappointing 4-8 finish. Winning early rivalry games against Nebraska and Colorado State will be critical to build momentum before facing the rigors of the Big 12. If they can establish a stronger offensive line and provide Sanders the support he needs, the outlook could brighten significantly.
