6 months seems really long. I would imagine he will miss a game or two but 6 months would put it all the way into October.Shilo officially on IR and out for Husker game?

That secondary is going to suck. Shilo out, Cormani McClain out, Slusher out, and another corner out.
Paging Jaylen "Ferrari" Lloyd and Jacory Barney. Time to go deep boys!!
Couple CU lines...like I said, they might only be favored in 2-3 games all year.
I have a Michigan friend who was talking about dominating Ohio St and I was like hasn't Ohio St still won like 16 of the last 20 and he was like well, yeah. Alright then.
When you look at the entire season, that loss to CU looks really, really bad.
CU beat 4 teams.
5-7 TCU by 3
3-9 ASU by 3
5-7 Colorado State in 2 OT's
Nebraska by 22 (29 without TD on last play)
We were the worst offense they faced and our defense couldn't stop them the entire second half.
Man... I just can hear Gus Johnson yelling Ferrari or Lamborghini Lloydddddd. Just like he did with Maserati Marv Harrison. Cringe. I agree though. We should be able to move the ball at will and have our TE's and receivers chew them up in the run game as well. I hope we just run it right down their throat.
oh i'm sure. Michigan fans think they're simultaneously Harvard & Alabama
i would contend that it got outta hand due to a couple terrible turnovers. Nebraska easily could've controlled that game, and possibly won with HH or any QB more capable of sustaining drives than Sims. defense got gassed
i also think confidence is huge. Colorado entered that game thinking they were a playoff contender. after they got humbled by Oregon, they were a completely different, much more beatable team.
I will be there. I've already locked up a ticket. I am thinking tickets are going to be hard to get.
I don't buy the defense getting gassed argument because it would have had to happen at halftime. Momentum is another thing and hard to get it with an ineffective QB.
CU's biggest loss last year was in the coaching staff. Those guys violated every practice rule last summer and got them prepared for the early games and their lack of depth didn't hurt them as much.
Getting gassed in altitude can happen pretty quickly, especially when your counterparts on offense are wetting the bed as badly as our offense did.
When you looked at how effective our defense was in the first half, their lack of success in the second was a variety of things in my opinion, including getting gassed as well. The frustration of the offensive ineptitude had to have played in a bit as well, so effort was probably not as strong in the second, but they also had to have been getting tired for being on the field as much as they were since the offense stunk so bad.
In the first half we were up in time of possession 18 min to 12 min and we ran 35 plays to their 36.
Got rested at halftime and Colorado didn't punt in the second half and scored at will on us. They made adjustments and our defense got smoked.
Fair enough, maybe not gassed. But maybe demoralized by the offensive ineptitude. No doubt Colorado made some adjustments as well. But the offense did the defense no favors.
The loss to CU agitated me more than most of the others. I don't hate any programs other than CU. Too much Husker fan mistreatment in Boulder for me to ever respect them.
Man a night game would be electric. Hope it's what happens and the weather isn't sticky gross
I feel like it will be "bigger" than the Miami game 10 years ago.
I had a tailgate spot really close to the stadium that year and my god, it was packed and the booze was flowing.
Some rando-girl sat in one of our chair, passed out, peed herself.
We had a "Shot-Gun" which was a huge hit.
Great times.
Please, please make this be true. Huge advantage to us if it is a night game. If we come in after winning our first game and DR is the starter and plays well in that first game the hype will be off the charts. The crowd will be on fire. Might be our loudest game ever for two reasons: it is Colorado and Deion, and the fan base is so hungry to return to our winning ways they will unleash about 10 years of deep frustration. And if we get ahead early … sheesh … you might need to bring earplugs.
Screen name created 2010… posted 2 messages in 14 years, waiting for just the right time to unleash this gem against us. So patient, just waiting for this time.
Either that, or you just got out of prison.
I favor the latter.
Look at this cvnt, tell us all about your championships. That’s right you only have one that you got because the voters felt sorry for you, because you had a qb who was a piece of shit, dead beat father who died of cancer.
Nebraska’s record against the puffs 49-21-2. Largest margin of victory, Nebraska 59-0. Longest win streak, Nebraska 18.
Remember the 2005 game in boulder when Nebraska beat cu worse than cu did Nebraska in 2001?
That was a fun game, Cory Ross out of the backfield catching short passes snd moving the chains. Good times in Boulder, our seats were right where cu went to the locker room, i was able to congratulate them on such a fine effort. I will never forget that look on hawkins face.
By 2001, are you talking about the amount of transfers out of Boulder or the amount of lifetime streams for your QB’s music?
