Eleven games in and the Colorado Buffaloes have nine wins, a top-10 ranking in the nation and a clear shot at a Pac-12 Championship.
Wow.
On Tuesday, College Football Playoff Committee released their latest rankings, and these Buffs have reached a new high.
STILL RISING! The Buffs move up to No. 9 in the @CFBPlayoff Rankings. #GoBuffs #theRISEisREAL pic.twitter.com/y34zwvwRf4

With one game remaining on their schedule, Colorado is looking to add one more top-25 victory to their resume as they (hopefully head off to the Pac-12 Championship next weekend.
A win there, and the Buffs will be headed to the Rose Bowl, at least. If things fall perfectly, a birth in the Playoffs is not entirely out of the question.
