Thorburn: Pac-12 expansion doesn't benefit CU Buffs - Buffzone
CU spent the last year cheering the escape from the shadow of Texas and into a 'better fit' with the West coast teams. Now it looks like there is a chance they'll be right back where they started. They probably aren't thrilled about this.

Sounds like K-State's offense is bad, defense is pretty good. I won't count Snyder out yet but they could be in for a tough year depending on what he can cook up on the offensive side of the ball.

Helmet sticker in a stinker game

Amazed that Ubben gives Jantz a helmet sticker after throwing 3 INT’s to create a mess against a nobody team even if he did figure out a way to win the game.
