Colorado Buffaloes, ranked 17th, are on a three-game winning streak, positioning them for the Big 12 Championship and a potential College Football Playoff berth.
Led by quarterback Shedeur Sanders and two-way star Travis Hunter, Colorado's offense and improved defense have been central to their success.
