Can Colorado make it to the college football playoff this season?
Yes, it is possible for the Buffaloes to make the playoffs, but it will not be easy. They were not expected to be a playoff team this year, but the squad led by head coach Deion Sanders, quarterback Shedeur Sanders, and two-way star Travis Hunter has done exceptionally well.
Colorado is coming off a 34-23 win over Cincinnati last Saturday, and with the win came the team's first AP Top 25 Poll ranking. Despite not defeating a ranked team this season, the Buffaloes have put together impressive efforts, and now they are the No. 23-ranked team.
In the new 12-team playoff format, the five highest-ranked conference champions automatically make the playoffs, with the four highest-ranked of those champions earning a bye through the first round.
The next seven slots are determined by the CFP selection committee. They will go to the next seven highest-ranked teams, regardless of conference placement.
So, to make the playoffs, the Buffaloes will need to be a top 12 team in the country or win the Big 12.
Climbing to a top 12 slot will be challenging because they do not have any more games against ranked teams. However, if they go undefeated, it is possible.
