Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders brings his Colorado Buffaloes squad under the Friday Night Lights when they host the Stanford Cardinal in Week 7. CU has dropped out of the top 25 after losses to Oregon and USC, but got back to their winning ways last Saturday with a 27-24 victory at Arizona State. The visitors in the Stanford vs Colorado matchup are struggling as losers of four straight.
Before Betting on Stanford vs Colorado
Colorado should be a very heavily bet team on Friday night as -11.5 favorites at most offshore sites. Even though they were only a -3 point favorite last week against ASU, many thought the Buffaloes would win in a rout considering the Sun Devils have now lost seven straight Pac 12 games. Can Colorado put together that complete game to win by at least a dozen at home here?
Stanford is in a rut even though losses to USC (56-10), Arizona (21-20), and Oregon (42-6) were all expected as more than +13 point underdogs in each game. The real stinker for the Cardinal was a 30-23 loss at home to Sacramento State – a good indicator that an outright upset is going to be hard to pull off in Boulder.
Colorado’s one time Heisman candidate QB Shedeur Sanders has cooled off a bit throwing just 1 TD in two of the last three games, but he still has 16 TDs to just 2 INTs on the season and gets a Stanford team that ranks 130th in the country in allowing 305.8 ypg.

Stanford vs Colorado Prediction & Pick
It’s looking like a big night for Sanders against the horrible Cardinal pass defense and Stanford just doesn’t have the firepower to stay close in a potential shootout with the #118 scoring offense that puts up just 19.8 ppg.
