Colorado knocked-off in-state rival Colorado State 28-14 as a seven-point home favorite the third week of the season, but has been on the short side of the scoreboard in its other eight games. Last Saturday, the Buffaloes were blown-out 48-14 by Arizona State as 32-point road underdogs. They are now 1-8 SU and 2-7 ATS. The total has gone ‘over’ in four of their last six games.

The only bright spot on this team this season has been a pass offense that has done a decent job at moving the ball with an average of 245 yards a game. The running game has been almost non-existent with an average of 90 yards a game and the offense, as a whole, is ranked 111th in the country in scoring with just 18.8 points a game. Colorado has been held to a total of 50 points combined in its last four games.

The Trojans are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as road favorites and 7-2 ATS in their last nine road games overall. The total has stayed ‘under’ in five of their last six games on the road.
