Savoy Guidry is a 6-0, 180 pound safety out of New Orleans, Louisiana. He is rated as a three-star recruit and ranked as the No. 89 safety in the class of 2027 according to 247Sports Composite. 

Guidry was one of numerous class of 2027 recruits set to visit Colorado this weekend. Instead, he announced on his X account that he would be shutting down his recruitment and committing to the Stanford Cardinal. 

Stanford has the No. 45 ranked class in the country per Rivals and the No. 11 ranked class in the ACC with 12 commits.

“10000% locked in family,” Guidry posted on X with a photo of him wearing a Stanford jersey. “Recruitment shutdown.”

Colorado’s 2027 recruiting class is currently ranked No. 36 in the country per Rivals. This ranks No. 4 in the Big 12 conference. They are at 14 commitments, with three coming from blue-chip recruits (rated four or five stars).

The Buffaloes 2027 class is on pace to be much better than their 2026 class. Colorado's 2026 recruiting class was ranked No. 67 in the country and No. 15 in the Big 12 with 20 commits and two from chip recruits. It was among the lowest ranked recruiting class among all power conference teams.

The results on the field in 2025 weren't better than their recruiting rankings during the 2026 cycle. The 2025 Buffaloes went 3-9, missing a bowl game for the second time in three seasons under coach Deion Sanders. In the Coach Prime era, Colorado has an overall record of 16-21.

The Buffaloes will look to bounce back in 2026. They will get things underway on the road against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Thursday, Sept. 3.

Colorado and Georgia Tech played to kick off the 2025 season at Folsom Field. The Yellow Jackets came out victorious with a 27-20 win. During the three-win season, Colorado was only able to beat one power conference team.

The oddsmakers don't like the Buffs' chances to get back to a bowl game. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Colorado has betting odds of +240 to win more than 5.5 games. Six wins would lock up a spot in a bowl game. Furthermore, Colorado's line for Big 12 conference wins is 2.5, with odds of -110 on both the over and under.

Colorado also has the lowest odds to win the Big 12 championship game at +12000. The favorites to win the conference are the Texas Tech Red Raiders with odds of -150. This doesn't come as a surprise. The Red Raiders are the defending Big 12 conference champions.
