per Tony:
Will the real Buffaloes offense please stand up?
Minnesota held the Buffaloes to only 63 total yards in last year’s matchup. Needless to say, Colorado needs to gain quite a few more yards on Saturday if it wants to stay in the game. The Buffs have had some success on the ground, at least in spurts, but that has been offset by a poor passing offense that hasn’t yet taken full advantage of its outside weapons.
Once again, Colorado needs to put players in a position to succeed
Both TCU and Air Force attacked the outside of the defense in the running game while finding little resistance on the edges. CU coaches need to recognize this attack pattern and adjust the defense to slow down the outside run.
Can the Buffs master Minneapolis?
This will be the Buffaloes’ first true road test as they leave the friendly skies of Colorado for the first time. With the first two games being lopsided affairs, especially in the second half, a difficult Power Five road environment shouldn’t make things any easier.

Three areas of concern for the CU Buffs' Week 3 game at Minnesota
These three areas give us even more of a pause heading into Minnesota
