Colorado 2.5-point favorites over Nebraska after betting line shifts
The Colorado Buffaloes (1-0) welcome the Nebraska Cornhuskers (0-1) to Boulder for the 100th home opener at Folsom Field. A FOX Big Noon Saturday feature of the renewed former Big Eight rivalry.
Colorado is currently 2.5-point favorites, according to most sportsbooks.
Nebraska lost 13-10 vs. Minnesota on Thursday night. A 47-yard game-winning FG for Kragan Kesich as time expired was the difference in Matt Rhule's debut. The Huskers had two minutes to try and win before Minnesota All-American hopeful safety Tyler Nubin intercepted Jeff Sims.
Colorado continues to be the talk of the college football world with a 45-42 upset win vs. TCU. Shedeur Sanders put up 510 yards and four touchdowns on the Frogs. Travis Hunter played as a two-way stud with 120 total snaps. He had 11 receptions for 119 yards and a touchdown saving interception. Not bad for Deion Sanders' FBS debut near his old stomping grounds.
The Buffs win marked the fourth-biggest upset against the spread in school history (dating to the mid-1950s, when point spreads started to regularly appear in newspapers), according to CU athletics GOAT associate AD/SID Dave Plati.
