Colorado Buffaloes prepare for Arizona State matchup

Overview

The Colorado Buffaloes are preparing to face the Arizona State Sun Devils at Mountain America Stadium on November 7. Colorado enters the contest with a 3-5 overall record and 1-4 in Big 12 play, following a 27-24 overtime victory against the Kansas State Wildcats. That win, secured by an 11-yard touchdown pass from Isaac Wilson to Charlie Williams, marked Colorado’s first conference victory of the season and snapped a five-game losing streak.

As the teams prepare for this Week 10 matchup, both programs are competing to maintain bowl eligibility. Colorado requires three wins in its final four games, while Arizona State needs two.

Arizona State holds a 4-4 record and a 2-3 record in Big 12 play, coming off a 27-20 loss to BYU. The Sun Devils' offense features true freshman quarterback Jake Fette, and running back Cardae Mack has surpassed 100 rushing yards in consecutive weeks. Defensively, Arizona State has struggled, allowing the most sacks in the Big 12.

Colorado’s offense has dealt with turnovers this season, though quarterback Isaac Wilson recently played a turnover-free game. The Buffaloes' defense has been effective against the run, allowing only 3.7 yards per carry this season. Historically, the all-time series between the two programs favors Colorado with an 11-4 record.
