Fresh off of a program defining win on the road against the Oregon Ducks the Colorado Buffaloes have received a not insigificant number of votes in both of the major Top 25 college football polls.
In the AP Poll, the Buffs received a total of 33 points, which effectively puts them at the No. 31 spot with only Arizona State, Oklahoma, North Dakota State, West Virginia and Virginia Tech standing between the Top 25 and Colorado.
In the Coaches Poll, Colorado came in with 16 points, the equivalent of a No. 37 ranking.
As long as #TheRise keeps happening on the football field the Buffaloes will continue rising up the rankings!
