As a CSU guy I agree with most of the analysis so far. In my view, CSU's O-line is clearly the strength of this years team and likely has an advantage over the CU's D-line. If the the O-line can get in synch and get one of the running backs going (i.e. Mosure, Gaye, or Mason), shorten the game, and connect on a few play action shots it could be close.
That said....In reality, the program still seems a season or two away from any real continuity in the lineup. Breaking in a new QB, a new RB, and a defense without Brewer on the road looks to be trouble. Combine that with what I believe to be the biggest advantage by either team (CU's O-line vs. CSU's D-line) and I think CU wins by 17.
