"T.I.P.S." for CU v. No. 14 Utah / Plus: ESPN Game Day Report; Transfer Policy "Discussions"

Published: Nov. 22, 2022, 6:04 p.m.

Another November game; another lopsided loss. I am joined for this podcast by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we will give you a (mercifully quick) recap of the 54-7 loss to No. 15 Washington. CU\u2019s defense surrendered three touchdowns on Washington\u2019s first three drives, and the Huskies never looked back, sending the reeling Buffs to their tenth loss of the season. On the brighter side, Brad and I have a report from ESPN GameDay\u2019s trip to Bozeman, Montana. The iconic show was in town for the 121st \u201cBrawl of the Wild\u201d, with No. 3 Montana State dominating No. 12 Montana, 55-21. It was cold, it was fun, and it was an experience Buff fans have been longing for since ESPN\u2019s last visit to Boulder ... back in 1996. There is also a discussion about recent quotes from CU Chancellor Phil DiStefano, and whether there will finally be some movement on transfer policies at CU (spoiler alert: Don\u2019t hold your breath). We will also, of course, bring you our \u201cT.I.P.S.\u201d for the upcoming season finale against No. 14 Utah. It will be Senior Day, but the Buffs are once again heavy underdogs, with Las Vegas pegging the Utes as a 29.5-point favorite. So ... Can the Buff defense be proud of the fact that they held the nation\u2019s leading passer, Washington\u2019s Michael Penix, Jr., to his lowest output of the season? ... What was it like hanging out in single digit temperatures, watching Sir Nick Faldo and ESPN\u2019s Lee Corso pick the Bobcats to take down the Grizzlies? ... Is there any hope for change - or at least the conversation about change - of CU\u2019s transfer policies? ... And do the Buffs have a chance to hold back the Utah offense, the 7th Top 25 offense the Buffs have faced this season? ... Let\u2019s find out ...
