Rooting for my Cougs but just wanna bask in how great a year it's been for both teams despite wishing this matchup had happened on conference championship weekend. Great year, great match-up
This will be like the second conference championship game for the Big 12. This will be big for Coach Prime and his program if they can win this bowl game. Many fans were looking for this game as the Big 12 Championship game. Although Coach Prime would love to win a National Championship but I think that this bowl will probably be the most watched of all the bowl games. Apparently 30 million fans will be tuned in to watch Shedeur, Shilo and Travis' last college game. It will be a very tight game and it will probably go down to the wire. Possibly an overtime game.
I feel the same way. This will be a sold out game and probably 30 million football 🏈 fans are going to watch. This will be the most watched 🏈 game of the year.
Thanks for the great breakdowns, and being fair, all year for the Buffs Fellas. You're my #1 show now every week for college football talk, keep up the good work! GO BUFFS!
If Coach Sapp and that defense let that dawg out of those players then it will be a sight to see. These players know that Coach Prime ain't joking about winning because he believes in the future of football and the future of life
I expect BYU to run a lot of two back sets with Martin and Ropati. Maybe even three back mixing in Moa too. I expect more Retzlaff runs too. I think they'll try to get Marion in space. And they need a lot of the quick passes we saw in the second half against Arizona St
I hate this long break . Both teams may be rusty . Not sure about BYU, but CU lost an extremely good linebacker to the portal , which may affect their run defense .
BYU has a lot of guys entering the transfer portal. Two safeties, three wide receivers, a tight end, three defensive linemen, a quarterback, running back, long snapper, are all leaving Provo. Many of them are starters.
Is the BYU OL impacted by the portal? That’s where the game will be won. If their OL is intact, I give the edge to BYU in a close game. CU struggles with bigger backs with speed and they’re missing their best LB to portal.
I'm sniffing a great Retzlaff game, more like mid-season when he was healthy. Also, coming in as underlooked vs the "highlight reelers," helps BYU's cause. I like BYU in a close one in what Jake calls "The Big XII Peoples Championship." BYU '82 (And owner of the Official BYJEW T-shirt)!!! 😀
BYU 30 Colorado 28 That's my prediction. Game could go either way. Result could range anywhere from a Colorado blowout to a BYU blowout. But I think BYU is the better overall football team. They're also more consistent. And they're a senior/junior heavy group I expect to be completely focused on this game whereas key Colorado guys have NFL in their near future. Doesn't mean they won't be focused. But it is only human to be excited about an amazing future. So it's not high confidence, but I got BYU. I think that the key to the game is how it starts. When Colorado gets out of the gates fast they tend to roll with that early momentum. So if they jump out to an early double digit lead they probably win. BYU on the other hand tends to be much better in the second half. Their coaches make good adjustments. So if BYU is up at the half or even within 3 or 4 they probably win.
For 2 teams that were projected to be at the bottom of the big 12 ended ranked and seeing each other in the bowl game is more than either fan bases can ask for. Salute to BYU 🫡
I am an avid BYU fan and I am expecting Colorado to roll us... It's gonna be interesting to see how this goes after we haven't played for almost a month.
The last time byu played against a heisman winner, they destroyed Sam Bradfords career! I don’t want anyone getting hurt ,but you better watch out the Cougars are always ready to eat!
Watch how these views JUMP! It’s da Prime Effect! Plus the haters, if being honest. Buff fans & haters still wanna know what PFF has to say. The way PFF breaks down games makes you feel dumb going against their predictions. Im here for the Buffs!
I hope CU wins because after this season CU will look totally different and Prime needs to finally win a bowl game, he couldn’t do it on the HBCU level.
They are not 'there' yet. They have an arc and it will be in a power division and dominating regularly many years from now. Sanders will stay. He can't lead pros like he can colegiate aged young men and I believe in his heart he wants to help guide young men into men. No dog in this hunt.
SkoBuff$ #20 Colorado 9-3 vs #17 BYU 10-2. 19-5 combined from both teams, the teams lost to Kansas 5-7, Kansas st. 8-4, Arizona st. 11-2, Nebraska 6-6. Wins against SMU 11-3, NDSU 13-2, Colorado st. 8-4, Wyoming 3-9 K-state 8-4, Baylor 8-4, UCF 4-8, Arizona 4-8, Cincinnati 5-7, Texas Tech 8-4, Utah 5-7, Oklahoma st. 3-9, & Houston 4-8
If the refs weren't taking bribes from George Kliavkoff when it came to the Kansas and Kansas State games, CU would have gone to the Big 12 Champ Game. Both of those games weren't fairly officiated whatsoever. George Kliavkoff bought and paid for the referees in those two games, which, by the way, is a criminal offense in the state of Nevada where he resides.
@@casenpoint598We saw that as well. People know that they didn't want Prime going to the playoffs. Not to mention that Travis Hunter had two players guarding him and he still caught the ball. Look at the time of all the interference calls 📞 that should have been called. Especially the plays where they tried to hurt Shedeur. If people haven't seen how tough and calm Shedeur is by now then they haven't been watching Colorado football 🏈.
Your comments concerning Kansas and Kansas state were so true. Also keep your eyes on refs during this game between cu and Utah watch out bad calls coming.
@@rickplattsLike I said before that it will probably be watched more than the NFL games. Coach Prime has gotten many of us old heads watching college football again especially a school such as Colorado..
This is the stupidest match up in all of the bowl games. Why in the hell would you put the 3rd and 4th place teams from the same piss poor conference together. The bowl committee must have wanted to help Deion avoid being completely embarrassed by a Big 10 or an SEC team. This was a softest landing for him without just giving him a 6-6 team. What a frickin' joke this is. Why in the hell couldn't you give these two a bigger challenge. STUPID !
@ it’s called selling tix.. I used to be involved with the Alamo bowl as a media guy and the effort has always ensuring to have top tier teams that are ranked. Bowls are 1,000,000% about generating eyeballs. They’d be a bunch of idiots to not pick these two teams.
@@Levi.Cortesconstruction-qd4cztraditionally, the Alamo bowl was played between the runner up teams from the PAC-12 and the Big 12. Going from the old PAC-12, the next runner up who wasn't going to the playoff is Colorado. From the Big 12, I am sort of confused why BYU is going instead of Iowa State. Maybe it's because BYU is ranked higher by 1? Idk, but the likelihood of any outside influence determining who played in this matchup is small
Thank you for being Neutral and Just stating The Facts and Not Hating on CU just because CU does It Their own way and thanks for always Keep it 💯 no matter if it was good or bad .We Coming For that Big 12 ship and playoffs in 2025 #SKOBUFFS🦬🦬💪
Hopefully this extra time off allowed for better rushing plays for the Buffs. I am worried some about rust, we definitely Need a Quick Start. Nice Vid, SKO BUFFS!🤠🦬🦬🦬
Which quarterback do you predict to have a bigger game?
@@PFFCFB sanders it’s not close
@@PFFCFB Shedeur is going to have an epic game and so is Travis Hunter and many of the other CU players. Warren Sapp is going to let the Dawgs out.
I believe Shedeur
BYU fan. Shedeur is likely going to have a better game. BYU has been playing sluggishly towards the end of the season.

BYU will win this game! J Hill and the D will be the difference! The offense is due as well. I think BYU will run the ball extremely well! 31- 21 BYU!
I agree!! I hope it’s great game #SkoBuffs
This is the Big 12 championship game that could have been if the tiebreakers went a bit differently.

Gonna be a great game! Thanks for the as always great coverage 🦬🦬
C'mon fellas. 2 Legendary will have the bigger game. Happy to have you guys back! Can't wait until next year!
The whole thing is, without Hill-Green, can CU stop the run?!?
Next man up! That’s the gospel in Colorado. Stay Tuned…
Even with those players Colorado didn't stop the run!
@@joelpead2687 They stopped it against Oklahoma State and UCF 🤷🏾♂️
@@mrwonderful7815 LoL we will see won't we! I didn't see Colorado defense stop much of anything!
Agreed 100% NHG is real deal! Massive drop off to his backups!!! Very bummed that he is in the portal.
Go Cougs!!
Y’all are cool.
Love the content
CUs won a natty but has never won an Alamo Bowl. Prime getting a win there would be another on a long list of firsts for the program this year
SKO! Thanks PFF
Thank you for watching!

@@manderson2368Next star is born and the next man up. It's time to elevate and not hesitate.
@@codywarhawk7099there's not 1 starting player from BYU that has entered the portal! Good quality player's but not even 1 starting player!

ASU best team in big 12 Iowa state is clearly a lot worse then both teams here
Colorado will be an sec caliber team playing in the big 12 within the next 2 years
BYU fan here. Not expecting this to be that close with Buffs blowing out the cougs.
Not much of a fan are you! LoL! No way Colorado blows out BYU! Maybe change fan base!
@joelpead2687 just being realistic. The offense is struggling. The team greatly benefited from great defense and special teams.
Thanks for the honest breakdown. Our stud MLB is out and there is massive drop off to his replacement. I am concerned about BYU’s running game.
@@brianp2489 that is football! BYU wins the Alamo!
Let’s go Buffs!
Love it
Go Buffs!!!
I hope CU wins because after this season CU will look totally different and Prime needs to finally win a bowl game, he couldn’t do it on the HBCU level.
The real Big 12 Championship
Imagine if Colorado could stop the run this season , they would’ve been playing in the playoffs or win the big 12 championship
they stopped the run every game except 3 of them and those 3 games they lost
They are not 'there' yet. They have an arc and it will be in a power division and dominating regularly many years from now. Sanders will stay. He can't lead pros like he can colegiate aged young men and I believe in his heart he wants to help guide young men into men. No dog in this hunt.
