Colorado faces Texas Tech in a critical Week 4 matchup, coming off two consecutive losses to Northwestern and Baylor. Ranked No. 10, Texas Tech presents a formidable challenge, particularly due to linebacker Austin Romaine's disruptive ability. Last season, Colorado defeated Texas Tech 41-27, but the Buffaloes will need to adapt their strategy to counter Romaine's impact. To have a chance at an upset, Colorado plans to minimize Romaine’s influence through strategic play and effective running, especially with a quarterback change in Isaac Wilson expected for the game.
- •Colorado on a two-game losing streak entering the game.

- •Previous matchup saw Colorado win 41-27 in 2024.
