CU At The Game Podcast
Projecting CU's Starting Lineup: Offense
It’s July, which means the college football season is just around the corner. I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we are going to go out on a limb and give you our projected starting lineup for the CU offense for the 2024 season.
We also take our preview a step further, and discuss how each unit of the offense compares to the rest of the Big 12.
Our criteria:
– Tier One: One of the top four units in the Big 12, capable of taking the Buffs to title contention if the rest of the team is equally up to the task;
– Tier Two: 5-8 in the Big 12. A strength, a unit which can help CU to a winning record and a bowl berth;
– Tier Three: 9-12 in the Big 12. A liability, but, if the unit can avoid injury and live up to its potential, can help CU get to a bowl game; and
– Tier Four: 13-16 in the Big 12. A problem area. A unit which might drag CU down to another losing season.
So ... Is CU’s completely redone running back room a strength, or a potential weakness? ... Are CU’s wide receivers an elite corps, not only for the Big 12, but nationally? ... And ... Is the rebuilt offensive line, with fresh faces and fresh potential, good enough to carry CU to a winning season? ...
