Colorado vs UCF predictions
Many people might point to the fact that UCF leads the nation in rushing yards per game (375.7) as a reason why the Knights are favored by two touchdowns. What many might not know, though, is that Colorado’s run defense has vastly improved from a year ago.
The Buffs’ defense was 122nd in run defense grade last season, according to Pro Football Focus. They’re 15th through four games of the 2024 campaign.
And while plenty of attention is on the Colorado defense, not enough is on UCF’s defense, which allowed TCU quarterback Josh Hoover to throw for 402 yards and four touchdowns. It makes one wonder what Shedeur Sanders might do against the Knights.
Colorado wins 42-38.
