CU belongs in the Big 12. No defense, all offense. There special teams appear to suck.
Doesn't look like it but no pressure on QB who throwing dimes to quality receivers.
To be honest, we should take out Sanders early next week like they did to Adrian Martinez. They are nothing on O without him.
I live in Boulder county, so it would be super easy to go. But I’ve seen both teams play, and I would have CU favored. Not willing to drop that much money to see NU lose in that stadium.i’m going hell or high water for 3 days of golf andSpent to much for tickets going with a buddy and meeting a Husker buddy that lives there..
Meanwhile Fresno State beat Purdue.
Defenses have packed it in for the day, but at least it’s a fun game to watch. Beats the Hell out of Rutgers-Northwestern.
Yeah, it is his son. But my hunch is he would have gotten a really good QB in the transfer portal anyway. He has attracted a lot of talent to CU based on his name and reputation. It was a good hire by CU and I don't care what anyone on here says about that. I do not like the guy either and hope he flops. But he is not going to. My deeper point is that Rhule failed to get a good QB on our roster for this year. He should have chosen Thompson over Sims as well. Sims is just flat-out terrible.
Rhule did get a quality QB recruit for next year's class. And hopefully he gets one more as well. So my point is not that Rhule sucks or that there is no hope. My point is that this really is going to be a long term build and we are not going to have a good season this year. We need offensive talent across the board. We have a solid incoming class and some good guys in this Freshman class now. But we are two years away from the Rhule rebuild showing fruit.
We are going to need to be patient because this offense this year is beyond awful. And it is not just QB. There is by now little hope that the current offensive lineman are going to be much better. Piper, Benhart and Corcoran are who they are. Period. 4-8 or 5-7 this year as far as I can see. You do not win against P5 teams without a P5 QB. And we do not have a P5 QB on our roster.
Oh ... and speaking of sons ... it occurs to me that we have a coach on our staff who has a son who is a good 5 star high school QB. Oh wait....
Yeah Nebraska is going to get utterly annihilated next week. Holy crap.
For once I would like to be surprised and have our coaching staff come up with a solid game plan…
We are going to have our hands completely full. Gotta hold the ball and pound.
Despite all of the hand wringing here, I’m loving this game. We have forgotten that football can be fun.
Colorado is definitely better than I thought. Or TCU sucks. Or a little of both.
great game
Shadeur belongs in the Heisman discussion if he's going to throw for 400+ and 5 TDs every week
TCU left 17 points on the field and still scored 42. Lets see how CU does against a team with a defense. Not saying that is NU.
Yep, Coach Prime and the Buffs are the real deal. How much will they be favored next week?
Gus Johnson was built for this moment. Just brutal to my ears…..but an awesome moment for Colorado and Neon Deion Prime Time 2 Legit 2 Quit Louis V Sanders. Did I cover all of his names?
So maybe unloading 68 players that had been poorly coached for a few years was a good strategy.
There’s a reason we only threw the ball that many times. About 33% of the time we complete the pass to the other team. Once when a tight end was standing 13 yards in front of us wide open, but we chose to throw to the covered receiver that we watched from the time they left the line of scrimmage. We appear to be so completely fook’d at QB. We make the other team 35 points better by our deficiency at the helm. It’s a cancer at Nu.
Primes a winner. Winners win. Losers say 3 years
