Definitely not a bad matchup for the defense but UW has guys that can win one on one battles which is really the only way this defense can be gashed.
Wazzu lost the game because they gave up the big play (with a trick play as well) and turned the ball over. I don't have the numbers, but I imagine CU has been one of the best defenses in the country in not allowing the big play. Don't allow Pettis to win a 50 yard jump ball for a TD, don't give up trick plays and take care of the football.Definitely not a bad matchup for the defense but UW has guys that can win one on one battles which is really the only way this defense can be gashed.
Do we have faith that a kicker can make a FG when it really matters late in the game? Because that very well could end up happening.
62 yarder?? I kid.Do we have faith that a kicker can make a FG when it really matters late in the game? Because that very well could end up happening.
Price kicked the XPs, Graham the FGs. Graham was accurate, but we are very lucky they were not blocked. Those kicks were suuuuuuper low.62 yarder?? I kid.
Graham has been surprisingly decent the past two weeks in clutch situations, albeit I think only 2 attempts, but has nailed all the XPs!
Gotcha. Either way, no I'm not very confident if the game comes down to that.Price kicked the XPs, Graham the FGs. Graham was accurate, but we are very lucky they were not blocked. Those kicks were suuuuuuper low.

I will say that every day this week when I've gotten off work, I've turned on 104.3 and they have been talking CU and their playoff chances. Now, that's usually around 5 pm and their show starts at 3, so they could very well have been talking about the Broncos for 2 hours prior.Yeah, Siemian ****ed us this week by getting hurt. Who has time to discuss the biggest college football game around here in decades when you can discuss whether of not a pirate looking dude can beat a terrible football team?
