The Buffaloes (4-2, 2-1 Big 12) are coming off a 31-28 barn burning loss to Kansas State and sit in a five-way tie for fourth place in the Big 12. That game left Colorado reeling with a slew of key injuries.
Travis Hunter exited the game against Kansas State but is expected to suit up against Arizona. The two-way savant has 49 receptions for 587 yards and six touchdowns on offense while also tallying 16 tackles, three interceptions and one forced fumble on the defensive side. He averages 124.4 snaps per game.
Colorado’s pass-heavy offense is guided by senior Shedeur Sanders, who has amassed 2,018 yards and 17 touchdowns with just four interceptions. Sanders, who is in consideration for the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has notched three touchdowns in back-to-back games and is completing 72.6% of his passes this season.
The Buffaloes throw the rock 61% of the time.
His cupboard is a bit bare as Jimmy Horn Jr and Omarion Miller suffered injuries against Kansas State. Horn could play but Miller is likely out indefinitely after undergoing surgery on his leg this week.
Seniors Will Sheppard and LaJohntay Wester are thrust into the spotlight. Sheppard has 22 receptions for 330 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 15 yards per reception. Wester has 26 receptions for 318 yards and seven touchdowns, averaging 12.2 yards per reception.
After a strong performance against UCF, the Buffaloes run game reverted back to its inept performance through most of the season. They tallied -29 rushing yards, including -50 from Sanders, who was sacked six times. Colorado averages just 4.3 yards per carry and does not have a running back over 150 yards this season.
Though it has been beefed up considerably, Colorado’s offense line still has question marks. They have allowed the third-most sacks in the nation with 23.
Colorado’s passing defense will be tested, averaging 226 yards per game. With choppy quarterback play, Arizona has struggled at times this season, but can explode on a dime.
The Buffaloes have allowed 21 points or more in five of their six games.

The Wildcats (3-3, 1-2) were blasted by BYU, 41-19, last week as they have lost three of their last four games.
Arizona’s offensive production is predicated on the performance from the duo of sophomore quarterback Noah Fifita and junior receiver Tetairoa McMillan.
Fifita has tallied 1,636 yards with eight touchdowns and nine interceptions, including five picks in his last two games. Fifita threw for 214 yards and two touchdowns against Colorado last year.
One of the most prolific pass catchers in the game, McMillan has garnered 42 receptions for 742 yards and four touchdowns, averaging 17.7 yards per reception. All four of his touchdowns came in the season opener. He is third in the nation in receiving yards. Hunter is expected to grab the assignment against McMillan.
Senior receiver Montana Lemonious-Craig spent three years at Colorado. He has hauled in 17 receptions for 172 yards and one touchdown, averaging 10.1 yards per reception.
The Wildcats also have a potent back in senior Quali Conley, who has racked up 82 carries for 458 yards and six touchdowns. He has also snagged 22 receptions for 151 yards. The Wildcats have recorded just two games where a running back has rushed for over 100 yards.
Arizona’s defense has tallied 11 sacks this season, which is the same number as Colorado.
Arizona has won five of the last seven matchups against Colorado, including last year’s 34-31 victory in Boulder on a Tyler Loop Field goal as time expired.
With two high-powered offenses on tap, homecoming in Tucson is sure to have some fireworks for this year’s rendition.

After another warm and mostly dry week, drought conditions have worsened slightly across Colorado.
The latest update from the U.S. Drought Monitor shows that areas of moderate drought and abnormally dry conditions have expanded. Moderate drought from 29.20 to 29.37 percent and abnormally dry conditions have increased from 49.36 to 55.10 percent.
There’s some hope for a brief break in the dry pattern – a chance for rain and snow will return to the northern mountains and portions of the I-70 corridor Friday night, with light accumulations possible. Most of the state, however, will stay dry through the weekend.
Looking ahead, long-range forecasts hint at a potential pattern change by mid-November, with an increased chance for snow.

16 Colorado state lawmakers face ethics complaints after political organization paid for Vail hotel rooms
Sixteen Democratic state lawmakers are accused of violating the state of Colorado’s gift ban after a political organization paid for their rooms at a luxury hotel in Vail.
The watchdog group that brought the complaints — Common Cause — is considered left-leaning. But it was also one of the driving forces behind a constitutional amendment that banned public officials from accepting gifts worth more than $75.
According to the complaints, the lawmakers are members of the so-called “Colorado Opportunity Caucus.” It held a retreat last month at a luxury hotel in Vail, where legislators mingled with lobbyists.
Common Cause says the head of the caucus — state Sen. Lindsey Daugherty — asked a pro-business organization called One Main Street to pick up the tab for lawmakers’ rooms, at a cost of $25,000. It says One Main Street agreed.
Common Cause’s Attorney, Scott Moss, says One Main Street — which doesn’t disclose its donors — created the caucus and bankrolls it to give business interests access to lawmakers. He says footing the bill for luxury hotel rooms is a clear violation of the gift ban.
“What the gift ban says is that there’s donations, there (is) independent spending. The one line you can’t cross is a legislator can’t say go buy me that and if someone tries to buy you a thing, you have to decline,” Moss said.
Daughterty released a statement saying, “Since its creation, the Colorado Opportunity Caucus has operated under direct legal guidance, so we know we acted in full compliance with the law. The State Ethics Commission has to perform their due diligence and when they do, we are confident the complaint will be dismissed as the political theater it is.”
The caucus consists of moderate Democrats who have clashed with more progressive members of the party. Headed into 2026, Daugherty says Democrats should be “elevating each other not tearing each other down.”
Moss insists the complaints are not politically motivated. He says this is he worst violation of the gift ban he’s seen since it was enacted 20 years ago. He says lawmakers should have to pay back the money plus fines.
The Independent Ethics Commission will have the final say.
Forwards Zemgus Girgensons, Yanni Gourde and Pontus Holmberg pinned Colorado in their own defensive zone early on a shift that ended with Nikita Kucherov taking the ice, forcing a turnover behind the Avalanche net and snagging a 1-0 lead for the visitors just 97 seconds into the game.
Kucherov stopped a Cale Makar clearing attempt behind the net and then wrapped the puck around the net to beat Colorado goalie Scott Wedgewood to the right post.
A pair of Lightning penalties less than three minutes apart saw Colorado even the score. Despite Tampa Bay killing the first Avalanche power play 10:47 into the period, a too many men on the ice penalty against the visitors ended with the 1-1 tally.
Forward Victor Olofsson potted the rebound following Nathan MacKinnon’s initial shot on the power play with 6:09 left in the first period.
Olofsson’s second goal of the game gave the Avalanche their first lead 4:08 into the second period, this time firing home a shot after teammate Jack Drury’s initial shot attempt rolled off his tape.
Former Bolt Ross Colton extended the Avalanche lead to 3-1 when he snuck behind the Lightning defense for a backhand breakaway goal 1:13 later.
“Maybe a lack of focusing a little bit,” defenseman Charle-Edouard D’Astous said of the rapid goals against. “It was two (where) we let our guy go and they scored, but yeah, we’ve got to play 60 minutes.”
