On June 6, Colorado State University announced the passing of sophomore hurdler and sprinter, Colton Kaase. Kaase committed to CSU on May 2 of 2022, through his social media accounts. He went to high school in Bellville, Texas, where he was awarded the most valuable sprinter award. He was a part of the team that broke the Bellville High School 4×100 relay school record, posting a time of 41.53. Although track was what Kaase pursued into college, he was a three sport athlete, also competing in football and baseball.

Fearless aggression has always been her greatest tool.

Once again, there aren’t many “easy” games on Colorado’s schedule. The Buffs are set to face the likes of TCU, Nebraska, Oregon and USC — and that’s all before Week 6. After that, UCLA, Oregon State and Utah await. With that in mind, Jon Wilner of The Mercury News ranked each Pac-12 football team’s strength of schedule and unsurprisingly, Colorado’s 2023 slate was considered most difficult. Wilner noted that if the Buffs can’t shock a few difficult opponents early on, their season could be all but over before October even begins. Deion Sanders’ first season features a rugged lineup with multiple marquee games (good), a narrow path to bowl-eligibility (bad) and a September with both Oregon and USC (ugly). Given all the new, inexperienced players, the Buffaloes could have their fate sealed before Oct. 1. On the bright side, Colorado doesn’t face Washington and a Week 3 home game vs. Colorado State is certainly winnable, although the Rams should be improved.
