The Colorado Buffaloes are just one win away from achieving bowl eligibility, and in Week 9, they welcome a strong Cincinnati Bearcats side to Boulder for a game that could secure a postseason berth against expectations of the program ahead of the year.

It hasn’t been talked about much this season, but what about the job that Scott Satterfield and this Cincinnati team have done so far this season? Discussed as a Big 12 bottom-dweller ahead of the year, thanks in part to a disappointing 2023 campaign, the program is 5-2 with a 3-1 conference record. Bowl season eligibility is within reach, but Brendan Sorsby and co. have even bigger aspirations than that heading into this game.
Colorado knows all about overcoming expectations and silencing the naysayers. Deion Sanders and his team have drowned out the (somewhat self-inflicted) negative noise around the program to be one win away from bowl eligibility and in the thick of the Big 12 title battle. Travis Hunter has established himself as a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender, and how much he plays in Week 9 will likely have a significant impact on the result.
