Texas A&M Football: Ranking 2020 opponents by toughness
By Shelbie Warr
10. Colorado Buffaloes
Colorado finished last season 5-7 with a 3-5 conference record in the Pac-12 South. With a new head coach in Karl Dorrell and a new quarterback after the departure of Steven Montez, the Buffaloes have quite the rebuild on their hands.
They return some other key pieces on the offensive side of the ball including a strong runner in Alex Fontenot and a potential big-name wide out in KD Nixon, just to name a few.
The Buffaloes have strong defensive and offensive lines, or at least they should. Those lines will be important against the Pac-12 and against Kellen Mond and his grouping of strong offensive weapons if and when — thanks to COVID-19 — the Buffaloes make the trip to Kyle Field.
This team has a lot to fix after a disappointing 2019, but they have the tools to be better and to make some noise in the Pac-12, but that starts against Colorado State in Week 1 and continues to Kyle Field in Week 3.
