The 1968 Colorado Buffaloes football team represented the University of Colorado in the Big Eight Conference during the 1968 NCAA University Division football season. Led by sixth-year head coach Eddie Crowder, Colorado finished the regular season at 4âÂÂ6 (3âÂÂ4 in Big 8, fourth), and played their home games on campus at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colorado.
Colorado featured 18 sophomores on the two-deep depth chart and endured an up-and-down season, including the second straight win over Oklahoma in Boulder to improve to 4âÂÂ2, but then lost four straight in November to conclude the season. The finale was the first loss to Air Force in five years; the Falcons finished at 7âÂÂ3.
This was the Buffs' first losing season in four years; their next came five years later.
