“This is one of the best lies I’ve heard. God bless u and I pray u sleep well tonight because we are. Lawd JESUS”
Colorado’s football program underwent significant reshuffling this offseason, with 41 players exiting via the transfer portal. However, the Buffaloes are determined to bounce back stronger, prepping for a promising season in the Big 12.
