I’m just parroting the insight of a former player.

But I’ll opine that their exact team last year WITH his son wouldn’t have come close to TCU, and may have even lost to us. Dude they beat us in every phase of the game. They’re BETTER than last year. Had the #1 transfer portal rank king football. Wasn’t just Shaduer…
Beat us in every phase? Our D is better. Special teams also likely better. Offense isn’t because of 1 reason, SS. If we don’t turn the ball over, with all of the talent you think they have, we likely win that game. Stop with your nonsense.

Turning the ball over and blown coverages leads to losses.

Therefore were arent better in any phase other than fandom for our team.

Fair. Just pointing out that while a lot of Nebraska fans can’t stand the guy, a lot of really talented recruits LOVE the guy. As in they’d play for Deion over Rhule, any day.

I’m not saying if I had a D1 caliber recruit as a son, I’d want the same. He annoys me too, but the Schtick is working out pretty well for the U of Colorado… immediately.
2 games in against bad opponents, it is working so far
 
Your a windbag aren’t you
Depends on the topic. Church? Silence.
If ‘windbag’ = making shit up, then no. Chatted with the dude after the game @ a bar on Pearl St. Was an interesting perspective into early 90s ‘glory days’ from a former player.
 
My group also spoke with an ex player on the 95 team while in Boulder. He never said "Boy I'd had played for this show boat a'hole who's only about himself over TO" 🤷‍♂️
 
Why we play N Illinois.

Who gaf about what Colorado is doing.

Is it? Our D better? We’re tackling better this year, but their D is a Helluva lot better than last year. I’d say the jury’s out on who has the overall better D. Held us to two scores (including one garbage score), 4/13 third down conversion ) they were 8/16. And forced How Many turnovers? Not being negative, just pointing out some stats here.

Be smart tho. How did their D force Sims’ fumbles?

They had a good plan on D. Focus on shutting down the run. Make Nebraska pass. That doesn’t make their D better. Held us to 2 scores? Pretty sure we held ourselves to 2 scores.

Not saying we were the better team, but you can’t realistically say their D was better and maintain a straight face, can you?

They’re not winning any championships this year, agreed. But they’ve had the turnaround that could lead to a run of recruiting some elite Talent. They’re gonna get a ton of press coverage, and they’re going to a bowl, for sure. We’re basically the polar opposite in every way possible this year. What Not to do.

What's funny is that Deion said he was proud of their defense forcing 4 TOs. Man, that guy didn't even watch the game.

Absolutely depends on one’s perspective. Remember a couple months ago when Deion IDIOTICALLY stated he wanted white kids from two parent families on the O-Line and black kids with one poor mama on the D-line? Ludicrous to even say out loud. Cringe-worthy, right? HE’S GETTING THESE KIDS. It reverberates with a lot of the recruits he picked up this season, who BTW kicked our asses.

I’ll restate it- I’d NEVER wanna probably even be in the same room with Deion because of his overinflated ego and just grandiose nature. Not my type of human. But I’m not speaking of myself. And I’m shitting-you-not about the frmr player.

I’m saying that they were statistically better, last week. With a straight face. I’m a numbers guy. Are we better than we were last year? OBVIOUSLY so. Were some of our wounds self-inflicted? Lol yep. They still Caused more turnovers than we did, and held our offense to less yards than we did theirs… be interested to see where we stack up in overall D at the end of the season. Maybe we’re better. We weren’t last week.

I know we actually caused 1 turnover. I'm pretty sure they actually caused 1 turnover (int) which can probably be debated. The 3 fumbles were all on us, there wasn't contact that forced the fumble.

I understand where you're coming from, however playing for a Coach like Deion as opposed to TO is a no brainer to me. TO was a Coach who showed many examples of being there for his players thru thick and thin. His ex players have spoke about the admiration and character their coach exhibited while making them better men.
Prime is about himself. His teams accomplishments are his accomplishments and there's little room left for anyone else and his huge ego.

I know you have gained some Prime love. But CU's best defense was NU offense/Sims

I guess your definition and my definition of “causing” turnovers simply doesn’t match up.
 
What is amazing is how some people Wish that we had Deion as our coach. These are probably the same people who were embarrassed by Pellini.

And I get why African American kids would think that Sanders understands them better than an old white guy. But does anyone on this board think that they would be better off being coached By Sanders versus being coached by Osborne?
 
Project much..lol

You are literally in a Colorado thread crying about Colorado and got offended soneone said lets focus on the team we actually play.


Hilarious

You hopped into this thread to tell people to stop talking about CU. Because you don’t like hearing negative things about your beloved hero. I’m sorry pointing out that their Coach and his son are lying, hypocrites offends you. But you chose to hop on the bandwagon of a team coached by a self absorbed, garbage person. So if you want to come here and pound your chest about the win, you are also probably going to have to hear remarks about his classless, bush league behavior too.

Anyway. Good luck against the Rams, I know it’s a big game for you since it’s personal and all.

Oh good God 100% T.O. >>> Deion in my book. And ‘Prime’ is a gay f’ing nickname, IMHO.

Also don’t think he’ll stay much longer than his boys there, move onto something more lucrative, but my limited insight on him is that he DOES care about these disadvantaged kids, because he was one. No one worked harder than him when he was coming up, and despite his flamboyance, I think he f’ing gets it.

Well, ya can’t help but give the guy some f’ing respect, no matter how much you dislike his Persona. But I’ll NEVER be a Buffs fan. Eff them.

I’m happy to compare numbers after the season with ya. And yeah Sims made them look a lot better, but statistically they beat us in every phase of the game. I can copy and paste the team stat lines, if you need a visual…

INT’s are a product of (usually) a bad QB decision, but also a d-back who can read and make the play. It’s not as if we handed them the ball… they were turnovers no matter how you wanna define it. Gotta jump on a fumble, either way. Yeah a couple ‘giveaways’, for sure. Nonetheless, their defense outperformed ours on paper, period. Probably wouldn’t 10 times outta 10, tho. No way. Never said our D sucked. They’re way improved, and we all can see that.

No f’ing way. Never said that, but Tom was a true Unicorn. Why he’ll ALWAYS be one of the most respected and revered coaches, everywhere and forever.

It’s a different era, though. There weren’t any Deion’s back then. Elite athletes WANT to play for him now, and CU’s dishing out the $ necessary to seal the deal. You don’t think his kids’ NIL money played a factor in where he currently is?

I’ll say it- I think our approach to recruiting and coach-hiring may be a bit antiquated.

Have never been PROUDER as a Husker fan of a coach (since Tom) than when Bo chased down Bill Snyder and cussed him out in the tunnel. Just an example.

What is it, late 80s or glory days player? If he was here in the late 80s he was not around for the glory days. Also, you know jack shit about football.
