2024 Fall Camp Thread
- Thread starter TDforTD
- Start date
What about Nikhai Hill Green at LB? He has been a presumed starter, but haven’t heard much about him since he got here.
Awesome insight. Thanks, @buffs233
Question: how big of an impact did CP’s health issues have on last falls camp?
Good question. Minor injury at this point and out right now.
Listening to DNVR from Friday and they mentioned that Shedeur said they were pretty much set with the OL, so it would seem like the shuffling is mostly cross training and seeing who can play where. Assuming that’s true, I’d bet Benson is the RT against NDSU with Brown at RG
Obviously these are just two highlights, but if Hood is able to strap Travis like this, our CB group is loaded. Prime said yesterday they have 4 guys who can play at CB and taking him at his word, the potential for this pass defense with the edge rushers we have is ridiculously high.
Teams won't have to pass on us. They'll have a field day with the run. Signed, Darth Snow
Four words. Interior linebackers. Crossing routes.
'Strap', 'loaded', 'high'!?!?!
the HCCP poisonous thug culture of team has officially permeated Allbuffs!
We need a pass rush. Those routes are slow to develop - which is why we hardly saw any from our own offense last season.
Too bad the interior DL is also a weak spot. Runs up the middle and crossing routes. NDSU is gonna kick in our teeth
Umm, the second pass caused the official to make this signal. I assume the P12 refs are in our rear view, so explain how this second pass was broken up?
Ahh you’re correct. Travis got that one in tight coverage
There's no way NDSU is #2 in the FCS this season. They might not even be #2 in their own conference.
Gets the clicks and eyeballs on that game though.
Yep. If you look at NDSU's conference schedule, they host two Dakota schools and then travel to both Illinois schools who are no pushovers. Can't rule out a 0-4 or 1-3 start in MVFC play.
I was told NDSU was ****, and former shell of itself.
Yeah that was my thinking too
They are
The name carries the weight of the "glory years." Will they make the FCS playoffs? Yes. Will they compete for the FCS natty? No.
The gap between FCS and FBS has never been wider. They lost a lot to the portal, including their best overall player, a WR who transferred to Iowa State.
That doesn’t mean they aren’t still good for an FCS school, it just means their history of upsetting mediocre P5 teams (which last occurred a decade ago, btw) is entirely irrelevant in 2024.
Well, I hate that. I guess load the box and dare them to beat you outside
Eh. This game isn’t about our defense vs their offense. It’s about whether our offense can put up 24+ in the first half, forcing them to abandon their preferred offensive philosophy and go to the air.
That’s what the entire season is about for CU; the offense scoring at will and allowing our pass rushers and secondary to tee off.
The anxiety about the season I have is whether the offense can consistently do that, because if they can’t against NDSU, they’re in trouble and we are looking at 4-8 again, tbh.
