top 10?They're 1-0 and beat a team that did well last year. They're as deserving as anyone this early in the season. It'll all shake out.
They have maybe 2 Heisman candidates if they keep putting up the numbers they are. Sanders and Hunter.
You play to win. I don’t have a problem with going for it thereIt DID bother me that Rhule defended his decision to go for the TD at the end of the first half, with what, 11 seconds left?
For me that was as big a WTF moment as the onside kick heard all over Ireland. I just don't get it or agree with either decision.
I didn’t see that as high risk - if it wasn’t there right away you throw to the stands - but it was there with the TE. Our senior QB should have known better.It DID bother me that Rhule defended his decision to go for the TD at the end of the first half, with what, 11 seconds left?

If people believe TCUs preseason ranking you have to think CU deserves to be ranked near 10.They're 1-0 and beat a team that did well last year. They're as deserving as anyone this early in the season. It'll all shake out.
I was told those kids are HBCU players who, along with their coach, would struggle at the P5 levelThey have maybe 2 Heisman candidates if they keep putting up the numbers they are. Sanders and Hunter.
You didn’t hear that from me.I was told those kids are HBCU players who, along with their coach, would struggle at the P5 level
now they're leading a top 10 team?
something doesn't add up
This is my fear too. Namely, that Rhule is building up CU in order to soften the blow of another loss. Still, I think this is a stretch, since Rhule is a fierce competitor and I am sure he thinks we have a good chance of knocking these guys off. In fact, another possible interpretation is that he feels good about our chances of winning and wants to build up CU in order to make our win, if it happens, all the more noteworthy.I was told those kids are HBCU players who, along with their coach, would struggle at the P5 level

I hope this isn't a hedge from someone who's already chalking up an L this week
seems my decision to tune Preacher Rhule out during the week is already paying dividends
I expect to play well on Saturday.
Had a couple of red zone turnoversI wouldn't put CU that high but won't kill anyone who does either. I don't get people who think TCU sucks...they don't. They had chances to win..their well coached..they'll be fine.
I'm currently at home depot buying new kitchen appliances. Now that's living...Haha. This thread. Just trying to make every tidbit of information overblown. People seriously have no life.
Exactly. My problem with the play other than who he threw it to was how many bodies were in the area. IF Sims makes a better decision there it’s a moot point BUT the spacing of the receivers made it easy for that DB to peel back and make the pick.I didn’t see that as high risk - if it wasn’t there right away you throw to the stands - but it was there with the TE. Our senior QB should have known better.
it was an elementary high/low concept with 2 receivers - one at the back of the end zone, one in the frontExactly.

What coach in his right mind wouldn't take a shot in the endzone with 11 seconds left?It DID bother me that Rhule defended his decision to go for the TD at the end of the first half, with what, 11 seconds left?
For me that was as big a WTF moment as the onside kick heard all over Ireland. I just don't get it or agree with either decision.
yesWhat coach in his right mind wouldn't take a shot in the endzone with 11 seconds left?
There were 3 receivers in that side of the endzone. The guy who made the int peeled off a receiver near the goal pylon didn’t he? I think you’re right that Sims should have gone to Boerkircher.it was an elementary high/low concept with 2 receivers - one at the back of the end zone, one in the front
sims either predetermined his read or just didn't see the defender
please don't act like it was any different than it was
6th graders execute that same concept every week of the football season
The number one concern I have going forward is Sims’ field vision and decision making. That’s over every other weakness we have including coaching. We had multiple instances where criticized play calls were there if Sims had executed. ☹️yes
the people who want to kick a FG on 3rd down with plenty of time don't know football
didn't work out, but was the right decision and a good play call - Boerk was wide open
3 on that side of the formation, 2 in the conceptThere were 3 receivers in that side of the endzone. The guy who made the int peeled off a receiver near the goal pylon didn’t he? I think you’re right that Sims should have gone to Boerkircher.
one could also say this is reason for optimism moving forwardThe number one concern I have going forward is Sims’ field vision and decision making. That’s over every other weakness we have including coaching. We had multiple instances where criticized play calls were there if Sims had executed. ☹️
It was that third db in the area that made the int. IF he goes to Boerk that db probably isn’t able to react.3 on that side of the formation, 2 in the concept
Sims HAS to take care of the ball. Then this week it’s a matter of whether or not our defense can slow down Sanders.one could also say this is reason for optimism moving forward
Sims made an incredibly bad decision and then the throw wasn't very good.it was an elementary high/low concept with 2 receivers - one at the back of the end zone, one in the front
sims either predetermined his read or just didn't see the defender
please don't act like it was any different than it was

I didn’t have an issue going for it with 11 seconds left. What you can’t do is turn it over in that situation. We had an open receiver (#87) right over the goal line and he didn’t see him.It DID bother me that Rhule defended his decision to go for the TD at the end of the first half, with what, 11 seconds left?
For me that was as big a WTF moment as the onside kick heard all over Ireland. I just don't get it or agree with either decision.
TCU is nowhere near the same team or anywhere near as good as they were last year as they lost a TON to graduation and Portal.They're 1-0 and beat a team that did well last year. They're as deserving as anyone this early in the season. It'll all shake out.
vegas O/U was 7.5 winsTCU is nowhere near the same team or anywhere near as good as they were last year as they lost a TON to graduation and Portal.
Yep. With our luck we would go into OT and lose for the millionth time since 2013.You play to win. I don’t have a problem with going for it there
I think he is a junior which isn't better for now or possibly next yearI didn’t see that as high risk - if it wasn’t there right away you throw to the stands - but it was there with the TE. Our senior QB should have known better.
Heisman has already been given to USC's qb. Again.They have maybe 2 Heisman candidates if they keep putting up the numbers they are. Sanders and Hunter.
We, take big hike dirt ball.0-2? We will be lucky to win 4 games this year. We are that bad. i do not see any improvement from Mickey Joseph coaching last year. Actually, I think the coaching is worse and Rule makes 9 million a year??? Almost every College Football team I watched over the weekend on TV was better than Nebraska. We are in trouble!!!
