Colorado Buffaloes

The Colorado Buffaloes are going with a semi-familiar look under the Friday Night Lights in Pullman.

They will be in an all-white CU 'Stormtrooper' look, except with gold rush helmets when they take the field vs. Washington State. The white with metallic gold is based off the uniform set used in the season-opening upset over TCU. A great looking update from the 2015 season with the right touch of Prime. 

Colorado has gone away from traditional uniforms with a "blackout gold rush" and a remix with black, silver, and gold. The only time CU used a traditional combination this season came vs. Stanford at home. If CU wins tonight, they need to have an all-gold uniform set next week at Utah. 

Colorado approaches kickoff at 10:30 p.m. ET with WSU from Martin Stadium in Pullman. The first of a back-to-back road games to close out the season with a Rumble in the Rockies matchup on the back end next week. M
