Nebraska vs. Colorado rivalry just got a bit more intriguing
It was always going to be heated. Nebraska versus Colorado may not reach the heights that Michigan versus Ohio State or Auburn versus Alabama do, but this is a rivalry that goes all the way back to 1898. There's no love lost between the Buffaloes and Cornhuskers.Add Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders, and this matchup was hot as fire last season. The Huskers traveled to Boulder to try to quell the early-season hype that surrounded Sanders and the Buffaloes. They left beat up after a 36-14 statement win by Colorado in front of a rowdy and reinvigorated home crowd. Now, head coach...

A dive into vaunted speed records across Colorado's outdoors
Joseph DeMoor has a confession to make. He knows it sounds silly, but he likes to see his name listed on the first page of fastestknowntime.com/athletes. There are, at last check, 487 pages you could scroll through — names listed with their number of fastest known times, or FKTs, as the rather obscure records are known in the world of outdoor athletics. And yes, at last check, DeMoor’s name was...

Colorado football offers 2025 Texas cornerback Caleb Chester
The Colorado Buffaloes recently secured three class of 2025 commitments, but the coaching staff is hard at work finding additional pieces, which means heading to talent-rich states such as Texas. Class of 2025 cornerback Caleb Chester announced Tuesday that he has received an offer from the Buffs. A native of Missouri City, Texas, Chester is listed as a three-star recruit (per 247Sports) and has accumulated an impressive list of offers and visits. The 6-foot-1, 170-pound CB has been offered by Texas, Texas A&M, Arkansas, LSU and several other Power Four programs. The Buffs’ main recruiting tool for defensive backs will always be the allure of playing for head coach Deion Sanders. We’ll see if that can help Colorado bring Chester to Boulder for an official visit. #AGTG After a great conversation with @Coach_Fella23 & @DeionSanders I’m Blessed to receive an offer from The University of Colorado! pic.twitter.com/aAI9e3Rnnn — Caleb Chester (@CalebChester_) May 14, 2024 Contact/Follow us @BuffaloesWire on X (Twitter), and like our page on Facebook for ongoing coverage of Colorado news, notes and opinions.
Looking ahead to Colorado’s first-ever meeting with Central Florida
Our first deep dive into the Colorado Buffaloes’ return to the Big 12 Conference brought us a familiar face, but even a return home can feature new furniture in this age of college football realignment. On Sept. 28, the Buffs will travel to Orlando, Florida, to face the UCF Knights for the first time in program history. UCF joined the Big 12 in 2023, expanding the conference’s footprint into Florida for the first time. The Knights had spent the previous 10 seasons dominating the American Athletic Conference, posting eight winning seasons, including four seasons with at least 10 wins. Their run...
Colorado women’s basketball adds transfer forward Ayianna Johnson
Last season, the Colorado Buffaloes women’s basketball team started two 6-foot-3 post players and brought a third in off the bench. All three have since moved on, but head coach JR Payne has rebounded nicely by adding three impact transfers: Jade Masogayo, JoJo Nworie and Nyamier Diew. On Wednesday, Payne scored a fourth big body from the portal as former Minnesota Golden Gopher Ayianna Johnson gave her commitment to CU. Johnson is coming off a freshman campaign at Minnesota in which she played in 31 games with six starts, averaging 3.4 points and 1.8 rebounds per game. The 6-foot-3 forward will be in the mix for playing time at Colorado as either a starter at one of the forward spots or as a big-bodied bench presence. The biggest thing that stands out to me is Johnson’s efficiency. Last season, she shot 55% from the field and only attempted two 3-pointers. That shooting mark of 55% would have led the Buffaloes last season, although she only took 80 shots.
