Colorado vs. Colorado State odds, spread, time: 2023 college football predictions, Deion Sanders Week 3 picks


No. 18 Colorado will try to build on its early-season momentum when it hosts Colorado State on Saturday night in the 2023 Rocky Mountain Showdown. The Buffaloes have already picked up impressive wins over TCU and Nebraska under first-year head coach Deion Sanders. Colorado State has only played one game this season, losing to Washington State in a 50-24 final in Week 1. The Rams and Buffaloes have not met since 2019, when Colorado cruised to a 52-31 victory.

Kickoff is set for 10 p.m. ET at Folsom Field in Boulder. The latest Colorado vs. Colorado State odds via the SportsLine consensus list the Buffaloes as 23.5-point favorites, with the over/under at 63.5, which is up 4.5 points from the opener.

What you need to know about Colorado

The betting market has not figured out how to price Colorado so far this season, as the Buffaloes were 21-point underdogs in their win over TCU and were only 2.5-point favorites in their 36-14 win over Nebraska. Junior quarterback Shedeur Sanders has completed 77.5% of his passes for 903 yards, six touchdowns and zero interceptions, averaging 451.5 yards per game. Senior wide receiver Xavier Weaver leads an impressive group of wideouts with 16 receptions for 288 yards and a score.

Colorado State has lost its last five games against Colorado, and it has not beat a ranked team in its last 24 attempts. The Rams lost starting quarterback Clay Millen to a shoulder injury in the second half of their season-opening loss to Washington State, so Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi will make the start on Saturday. Their defense allowed 556 total yards and 30 first downs against Washington State, which does not bode well against a Colorado offense that is averaging 509.5 yards and 40.5 points per game.

Meanwhile, Colorado State couldn’t capitalize on its home-field advantage in its season opener. The Rams ended up on the wrong side of a painful 50-24 loss to Washington State’s in Week 1. Despite the defeat, CSU had strong showings from receiver Justus Ross-Simmons, who scored a touchdown off of 123 receiving yards, and Fowler-Nicolosi, who threw for 210 yards and two touchdowns. Ross-Simmons made the highlight reel thanks to a 75-yard TD reception, while TE Dallin Holker also helped with a receiving touchdown.

The strength of the Rams is their defense, which got discernibly better as the season went on in 2022. After allowing 41 points per game through their first four games, the Rams gave up just 19.8 PPG over their last eight games. Defensive end Mohamed Kamara finished in the top four in the Mountain West in both sacks (8.5) and tackles for loss (16) last season, and he tallied one of each in the season opener.
