The Colorado hype train derailed much earlier this season than last with the Buffaloes dropping their second game of the season to the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Last year sports fans were treated to a full month of Deion Sanders being the next big thing, but this year the talk shows barely got a few segments out of the Buffaloes before tossing them to the side.
Remember last week when people were hyping up Travis Hunter as a Heisman hopeful despite the fact that only four non-quarterbacks have won the award this century and they all played for national championship winners or contenders? Even the most optimistic outlook for Colorado this year had them nowhere near the College Football Playoff.
