Tomorrow at noon in Boulder, the question is not whether the Colorado Buffaloes will rise to 3-0 and defeat the Colorado State Rams. What’s being asked at online college football betting sites is how much they’ll win by.
Current Colorado vs. CSU betting lines favor the Buffaloes to win big on Saturday, topping their cross-state rival by over three touchdowns.

What’s undeniable is the allure of Colorado head coach Deion Sanders. His presence on the Buffaloes’ sidelines has not just drawn the attention of the national media, but it has also created a buzz at online sports betting sites.
One of our preferred sportsbooks, BetOnline, has dedicated a section to betting on the Colorado Buffaloes. Usually, prop bets like these would be relegated to the prop builder apps.
Colorado gets special treatment, and they deserve it. The CO vs. Nebraska game last weekend took in more wagers than any single NFL game at domestic operator BetMGM.

Due to the early success of Colorado and the impressive stat totals that QB Shedeur Sanders has accumulated through three games, oddsmakers are forecasting his potential to win the Heisman Trophy.
Will Shedeur Sanders be a Heisman Finalist this Season
Normally, online sportsbooks create Heisman odds that simply list all potential candidates. In this case, Sanders has his own prop, but it does suggest that he will not be a finalist this December.
If you believe that the Buffaloes have the makings of a Pac-12 champion, the time to bet is now. Colorado’s odds of winning the Pac-12 have sunk by the week. If they manage to beat Oregon on September 23rd, their Pac-12 odds will place them near the top.
