Within two weeks, the Colorado Buffaloes went from being unranked and underrated to one of the fastest rising teams in the country.
Last Saturday, Colorado snuck past the then-No. 17 ranked TCU Horned Frogs. Junior quarterback Shedeur Sanders dominated the passing game with 510 yards and four touchdowns. A few days later, the Buffaloes were ranked No. 22 in the nation.
The hype carried over to a matchup with the Nebraska Cornhuskers as they visited Boulder Saturday morning. Sanders threw for 393 yards and two touchdowns, while South Florida transfer Xavier Weaver logged 170 yards and a touchdown.
