Colorado Has the HARDEST Month in College Football Next Season

As the pivotal month of October approaches, Kevin Borba spotlights the decisive stretch that could make—or break—Colorado’s 2026 campaign. With a treacherous road slate at Georgia Tech, Northwestern, and Baylor early on, Colorado will need to maintain momentum as they enter a daunting October string: Texas Tech, Utah, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State. “If that doesn’t go well, people will lose jobs and players will be benched,”  Borba underscoring the sky-high stakes. Roster depth remains a prominent concern as Kevin Borba breaks down defensive line woes from last year and profiles a trio of transfer and JUCO targets—De Varic Woods, Jalen Harris, and Malachi Brown—that could fortify the trenches. On the draft front, CBS Sports named only two draftable Buffs, but Kevin Borba makes a strong case for additional prospects like DeAndre Moore, Joseph Williams, and Zach Atkins to emerge this season with NFL potential. Will Coach Prime’s squad shake their pattern of faltering momentum, or will another October swoon derail bowl hopes? With every game potentially against a ranked opponent from early October through mid-November, Colorado’s bowl bid hinges on surviving—and thriving—in this make-or-break stretch. Can the Buffs weather the gauntlet and rebuild their national buzz, or will another midseason slide bring more questions than answers?
