Sanders will be the best or second best QB that NU faces this year?
Maybe that Will Howard at OSU?

That CU game is starting to make me nervous knowing that Buford might be a corner. I'll wait to see what he actually looks like, but always seemed to be about a half step slow at safety, but maybe Cooper did some magic and got his speed up after the injury.
On paper...CU is going to have an edge over us at several spots. Offensive skill positiions being the biggest, secondary to? ...This game is sooooo crucial for us. I think we win, but CU has more talent than a lot of people give em credit for....now next year will probably be a fvcking disaster fpr em, but this season? Its going to be tough sledding for us.
Not sure who else would even be in the conversation. Maybe Miller Moss at USC?
I was listening to a CU beat writer talking about the team on Sirius Sports talk this weekend. His take was they've made big upgrades at the OL position and coaching staff. He also disputed all the reports about dissention and chaos within the locker room that seem to be getting headlines - called it fake news, and said the team was really focused. When asked about the NU-CU game, he said Raiola would give NU a better chance than last year, but he thought CU's skill players, particularly their receivers, were going to too much for NU. If CU is, in fact, improved, we're going to need to be quite a bit better than last year to beat them. I know we all want to see the second coming of the '92 CU-NU game, but I'm not sure this year's team is ready yet to play the '92 Husker team's role on the field.

I'm not a big fan of moving these guys back and forth between corner and safety, considering the lack of NFL athletes we've had lately. I would prefer to play guys who are pure corners, even if they take short-term lumps. Feel the same way about playing guys at OT that everything thinks are natural guards. There are thousands upon thousands of football players. Find a tackle.
Not sure who their rb is but I was glad to see Edwards go. He was a threat to house it every time he touched the ball. Dline obviously needs consistent pressure because they will attack us by air.
I agree, people just expecting them to walk into a buzzsaw will probably be disappointed.
Some dont want to believe it, but they have 2 top 10 NFL picks on their roster as of today...maybe one plays his way out, but anayway, do we have even a guy who will be picked in the first 3 rounds??...they also landed arguably the top rated tackle of of high school...their secondary will be excellent...and yeah, until proven otherwise they have the superior staff. I know they flamed out at end of last year but Deion did quadruple their win total prior to his arrival, and now they have a year under their belt..
....if I were not a Husker fan and just a gambler who wanted to cash in, I'd be super tempted to take CU and the points.
Colorado got worse as the year went all around. Our defense improved drastically as well as our team discipline which was abandoned against Colorado in game 2 last year. I think we play composed and steady and gradually pull further and further ahead and win easy.
Top 3 for sure, also the gayest. Not that there’s anything wrong with that,
Unless you’re Shadeur Sanders of course, hard to respect a closet homo in 2024…
Might be true, but I've heard the on-line still isn't very good. We'll know soon.
I like the idea of our improved defense against them, but if we don't limit the big pass play it won't matter. I think this is pretty obvious to most people. Hopefully our coaches have enough to put a good game plan together.
Colorado showed tendencies last year. The same way we have forever. Teams now wait for us to turn it over and lose. For CU it's beat the shit out Shedeur and wait for the oline to collapse.
