There are jokes on the table.

What did Colorado ever do in the Pac-12? The program’s greatest achievements are a fast read.

1. Entering the Pac-12. 

2. Leaving the Pac-12. 

Quick: Name your favorite Buffaloes from the Pac-12 era. 

Ralphie doesn’t count. 

TIME. Pencils down.

They’ve been a blip. They’ve been a nice road destination for visiting media. They’ve been just as much to blame for the failure of this conference as anyone else. More so when you consider the Buffaloes were a hailed addition when they entered the league in 2011 and then lost seven or more games in 10 of the 12 seasons they were here. 

But damn it, do we ever have to start taking this seriously now.
