The Colorado Buffaloes (3-0, 0-0 Pac-12) remain unranked in the top 25, despite picking up votes in the AP and coaches polls respectfully.
Colorado didn’t look great against FCS opponent Northern Colorado, but remain undefeated behind Steven Montez's career-high 357 yards passing and four touchdowns. Coach Mike MacIntyre will have adjust ahead of next week’s big meeting with No. 7 Washington.
The reigning Pac-12 champion Huskies come to Boulder after dominating in non-conference play, outscoring their (rather weak) opponents by a total of 141-37. Jake Browning continues to be among the best in college football, completing 58-of-78 passes for 798 yards with eight touchdowns to one interception.
