Colorado made several improvements to its roster during the offseason, but some still doubt the Buffaloes are one of the top teams in the Big 12.
The Deion Sanders-led Colorado football team had a disappointing finish last season. Colorado was able to attract some top recruits in 2024 as the Pro Football Hall of Famer orchestrated a massive roster overhaul. The Buffaloes' 4-8 record in 2023 was an improvement over its 1-11 mark in the season prior to Sanders' arrival. But, the Buffaloes will face an uphill battle when they kick off their inaugural season in the Big 12 Conference in late August.
The Big 12 Conference has expanded to 16 schools. Entering the 2024 season, media members projected the Buffaloes as the 11th best team in the conference. Colorado's roster does feature elite talent at some key positions. Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders received All-Big 12 honors, while star wide receiver and defensive back Travis Hunter was the preseason pick for defensive player of the year.
The Big 12 Media Days are scheduled for July 9-10 in Las Vegas. Sanders missed last year's Pac-12 Conference Media Days due to a 'routine, follow-up' procedure on his foot. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
