Things aren’t going well for CU. The Buffs are 0-2 for the first time since 2012 and they could easily be 0-4 with Minnesota and UCLA up next.
On Saturday, Air Force confirmed that it’s the best college football team in Colorado, but it’s also possible that the Buffs aren’t even second-best.
Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports dropped his 1-131 NCAA re-rank on Monday and the 0-2 Colorado State Rams — the same Rams who just lost to Middle Tennessee — were No. 113, six spots ahead of CU at No. 119. Dang.
I’ll admit that new CSU head coach Jay Norvell seems solid up in Fort Collins, despite the embarrassing home opener. We’ll get a better idea of how the Rams compare to the Pac-12 in Week 3, though, when they visit Washington State.
Even sadder for Buffs fans (and Rams fans), is that Colorado State was featured in Dan Wolken’s Week 2 Misery Index. So, unless you root for Air Force, it’s tough to be a college football fan in the state of Colorado this fall.
