Colorado needs to win two of its next three games to become bowl eligible, so its game vs. No. 21 Arizona on Saturday is crucial. The Buffaloes enter the game at 4–5, but just 1–5 in the Pac-12, while the Wildcats are 6–3, with a 4–2 record in conference.
As neither team has been a juggernaut this year, Saturday’s game will air on the Pac-12 Networks. The game will kickoff at 2 p.m. ET, 12 p.m. MT, and it will be the first Pac-12 Networks game of the day and Colorado’s final home game of the season..
The game will be Colorado’s second game of the season to air on the conference’s networks, the first being a matchup with Arizona State in Tempe in early October. The Buffaloes won that game 27–24 for their first conference win of the year to stop a two-game skid.
Since then, however, Colorado has lost three straight games to fall in danger of not earning a spot in a bowl game. After they play Arizona, the Buffaloes will travel to play Washington State next week before finishing their regular season schedule in Utah against the No. 18 Utes.
