Jon Joseph Moderator No. 2 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Colorado is replacing scrubs with higher-ranked players. The vast majority of the CU players who have left were not highly-ranked recruits. This is not the case with the 32 Oregon players that have portaled out. Oregon has a solid portal ranking but the ranking IMO does not adequately reflect DL filing positions of need. BTW, yesterday Coach Prime signed the #1 ranked RB out-of-portal as well as another quality transfer. CU's schedule is brutal in 2023 but if the roster gels Prime could take CU to a bowl game. I love that Prime's conference audition will be in Autzen Stadium. Add USC and Oregon State to the home games and Oregon has a very good home schedule in 2023. Both the CU and USC games will be on Primetime TV. And if they hold serve, I expect Game Day will be in Eugene for the SC game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandaian No. 3 Share Posted May 17, 2023 I'm not on the Deion's bandwagon yet. I think he has upgraded the roster for sure, but is it really enough to get him to 6-6? I don't think so. I think they have wins vs Colorado St. and Stanford. They might beat Nebraska and ASU. After that, I don't see who they beat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that, I don't see who they beat. I think this is a realistic outlook. But CU will be improved at almost every position and the OC Deion brought in, who was the HC at Kent State, is a wizard on O with a capable QB in Deion's son. Folsom Field will be sold out and rocking for every Buffs home game. I think this will be good for at least 1 upset win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
