Colorado and Cincinnati's seasons are almost mirror images of each other. Both Big 12 schools hold a 5-2 record, with conference marks of 3-1. Thus, their encounter on Saturday night is extra important as it will probably show what they are made of.
Coach Deion Sanders' Buffaloes are slightly favored in this one, perhaps because they have the home-field advantage as the game will be played at Folsom Field in Boulder.
The matchup can be listened to on Sirius XM through channel 384, although the broadcast will be the Bearcats one. Those in Cincinnati can listen to the game through 700 AM WLW, and in the Boulder area, it will air on KOA 850 AM and 94.1 FM.
The Bearcats are five-point underdogs here, which makes this game almost a toss-up. ESPN's game predictor is giving Colorado a bit better odds, with a 68.1% chance of winning the game.
