Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay give their best case scenarios for CU — is their ceiling established?
Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay dive into their annual CU Buffs ceiling and floor conversation, and the numbers get real fast. Phil sets the ceiling at 8‑4, admitting he’d be shocked if they actually hit it — but he still believes that’s the absolute best‑case scenario.
Zach agrees the ceiling is somewhere between 8‑4 and 7‑5, but ultimately goes 7‑5 because of the new quarterback situation and his doubt that CU will truly commit to the running game the way they keep saying they will.

And what will their actual record be when the season ends
