I'm willing to acknowledge that CU is not yet dominant in every phase of the game. Some things will need to develop over the course of the season.

I think it’s well below 20%. Maybe more 10%

That would entail trying to run the ball. 2-3 times they needed 1-2 yards and threw behind the line. If I remember correctly it’s first and goal on the 3 and they throw on first down incomplete. Ran the second play and got to the one. Then tried throwing again and got sacked. Run the ball. Not Lewis’ best day, but even with that they win by three tds.
My guess was 12k or so, so that'd be 20%. I could have been wrong though. It seemed like the East stands had a lot less red than the West, but I couldn't get the best feeling for it.

A couple of observations:
1) The Big Ten refs were terrible. I have seen them ruin many conference games, so I wasn’t surprised that they destroyed the flow of this game. But still.
2) The game was more competitive than I expected. I don’t have a fancy “model” like some people on this board. I just know football a little bit. I knew this would be a 10+ point win, and I made a good bit of money on this one. The betting lines will get tougher very soon, but the Nebraska game was one of the easiest bets I have made in years.

That’s why I used the pic looking at all of the west stands. All in all, I think it was more like 5-6k (for perspective, the visitor section holds about 1500 I believe…could be wrong on that.)

When we make it a four game sweep.
Getting McCaskill back healthy will go a long way toward solidifying the run game.
Prime and the team should “run out behind” Ralphie, not run 30-seconds after Ralphie
The flyover was 30-seconds late, likely the band playing the Anthem too quickly
Please add 100 new toilets somewhere in the stadium! Time to invest in the old stadium, she is getting tired.
Can we come up with a better 4th Qtr schtick? The clap was sad as hell
I would play John Denver “Rocky Mountain High” and when the song hits the COLORADO, the stadium loudly shouts COLORADO.
Otherwise, blue ribbon day in gods country and beating the Huskers badly was amazing
Need like double the toilets in the tailgate lots. 2 for the main public lot is ridiculous
Trust me, Whitney is the lead.

Was wondering the same thing.
Finally back from an incredible day in Boulder.
****. Yes.
****. Yes.
Saw him on Franklin Field before the game. Told him to give ’em hell.
What’s going on with Demouy Kennedy? Is he getting any defensive snaps? I see him on ST but not LB.
May be one of the “misses” prime was talking about during his coaches show at the post?
I missed that. What did he say?

Actually the flyover was timed perfectly, but instead of flying over right away, they did a banked turn over the Flatirons, it looked really cool from the east stands, then did the flyover after the banner finished.
The band did play Halftime by Ying Yang Twins, that was the only new music from them I think.
In addition to more toilets, more water fountains would be great, and some way to speed up food lines.
Didn't start out too bueno, but they woke up as it went. I haven't read the whole thread, I'll leave the running game talk alone. That'll come. Didn't play our best game, still won by 22. I'll take that any day of the week and twice on Sunday, especially against those mother****ers.
Had a gentleman sitting next to me that works for the University and I asked what was actually under the stands cause there seems like so much room under there, and he said it is a bunch of offices. Cause they need offices for staff. WTF
Every inch under the seats should be remodeled to restrooms or food or whatever is needed.
Is that true about offices?
Does Colorado Blvd need to be a through road in front of the stadium?

I mean under the entire lower bowl is just dirt. Under the stands in the south end zone are offices and classrooms. I think it's where the ROTC program is housed.
I think Colorado could be turned into a single lane bus loop and just have all the busses run the same direction.

Buuut, we are kind of decent (actually good)…pretty nice from where we were
Hell I'm willing to acknowledge that this is all going to take more than one season haha. Will re-evaluate if they win 2 of the next 3.
