We've all become complacent.
And then we punted the next possession when we SHOULD have went for it.

Definitely weird to NOT go for it on 4th and 1, then to go for it on 4th and 3.
Also shot gun power run (2x) at the goal line?! Get your jumbos in there, tighten up splits, put Wilkerson and McCaskill behind Shedeur (who is under center), and have some will and determination to cross the goal line.
Going for it was the right call, analytically and your O is much better than your D
What a ****show. Came back from the game and then read through this thread and went to bed.
All night, I felt the weight of this game. I felt it in my sleep, and I felt it when I was restless and awake. It just sat there. That sucked so ****ing much.
Plenty of blame to go around and plenty of credit to Stanford.
****.

That personal foul was a killer.
The Trees made it interesting. Congrats to them.
Jesus H. Titty****ing Christ. This isn't ****ing peewee football. The players are 100% at issue for the ****ty execution and mental mistakes. This game was a complete team failure, coaches through players.
To compound the game blues, car battery got drained tailgating and needed a post game jump, then arrived home to find one of the dogs got sick all over the carpets - took a full hour to clean up.
Get one of these for the car. It’s come in handy more than once. They make different amp power for what you need.
I agree with my inebriated self of last night. That loss sits squarely on the heads of the staff. They didn’t envision and communicate and execute a quality plan for being ahead that much. They made a bunch of high risk calls over and over in the second half. Relying on your super stars to bail you out of your bad decisions is not how you win. This will get cleaned up but it is quite a disappointment of a **** sandwich to have to consume. Learn from it and move on. There are very few p5 opponents that will not make the game interesting if you let them.
I was yelling for them to run the ball all second half. Not just for clock management, but for the benefit of the offense. Run the ball!
I already have one of those…in the car we didn’t bring. Oh well, it was Friday the thirteenth after all
Why was going for it analytically correct? Up 29?

Your dog probably watched the second half.

Young team, lots of hype, have not learned how to get back momentum when it has slipped away. The whole team lost focus at half-time including the coaches. Unfortunately turns off like a switch but does not turn back on that way.
You just answered your question - probabilities say it's the correct decision. The execution was dog ****.
Do you trust the O to get 3 yards more than you trust the D to get a stop? I do.
I didn’t answer my question. Please show me the data.
I'm glad our dogs can't figure out the TV.
I've never been so pissed off after a game. I was angrier than my husband. I felt relief at the end of the first half - no anxiety really, thinking there would hopefully be no overtime and we could get home relatively quickly. I knew - having been a CU fan for over a decade at this point - that I should never become too comfortable.
Then they totally blow it.
When we got home, I avoided all talk of CU football on all sites. Watched some cartoons just to cheer myself up.
ESPN had the data up during the play
Do your homework!
