CU at Arizona - 10/19 @ 2pm MT on FOX

[Medford M.]

If the player is giving up exceptional yards after contact, that's not acceptable unless we're talking desperation mode at the end of a game. But there doesn't have to be that tradeoff.

It's a valid criticism of Shilo that too often he fails to make the basic play because he's going for the big play, whether it's going for a kill shot or riding a guy to try to pull the ball out. That said, I've never been bothered much by aggressive mistakes.

So we can all agree that Shilo's forcing lots of fumbles is also the reason he misses a lot of tackles?

Somewhat. I don't think he misses a lot of tackles, though. But when he does miss one, it's usually from him being overly aggressive.

I think we've had a breakthrough. Shilo needs to wrap up. We already knew that, huh.

It's been a long day

If your original argument had been that Shilo needs to wrap up and not give up YAC, it would have been a much shorter day.

I think tackling is mostly luck for the defense. It's primarily about the ball carrier's inability to stay upright.

he was afraid of re-injuring his broken arm and held back. Almost no arm tackles.
(when you have suffered a traumatic injury, your brain wants to avoid it happening again. when put in the same position as when he was hurt, his brain held back a little. when you touch a hot stove, your brain keeps you from doing it again)

Certainly that's more true in the college game than the NFL

 

[Burrito]

I love how absolutely certain people are in this thread. FACT!

 

[Gary Indiana]

Yeah...I'm aware of that, numb nuts.

You're post didn't prove anything, bud. If you think hitting a guy, and he loses the ball is a skill...you're an idiot.

You put your helmet right on the ball? Not a skill. Just poor ball security.

Seriously...find me a defender who isn't a pass rusher who has huge forced fumble numbers year after year...then I'll consider it a skill.

JFC. So far in this thread you’ve stated that Hunter, possibly the most talented player to ever play for CU, is not a first round talent. Then you decide to die on the hill that forced fumbles are not a defensive skill set???

There has to be a TOS violation somewhere with those absolutely trash takes. You’ve made me agree with Hank, that alone is a violation of my moral code.

Maybe it’s time we get you home, little buddy.

I have run the analytics, this thread is explosive for its hot takes.

Slap a miniskirt on that!

 

[Agent Dave Kujan]

I don't see how a low exit velocity in baseball has anything to do with someone forcing a fumble.

Oh come on, It’s all ball bearings these days

 

[patebuff]

Hold on. "Fat Montez" is a reference to Shedeur Sanders?!?!?!?

I don't get it.

Certainly that's more true in the college game than the NFL

After all of the chaos in this thread the past 24 hours, these two posts put me on the floor

I come here to read up on Saturday's game against Arizona and get absolutely no info on that game.
Gotta love Allbuffs.

We are going to lose. Happy now?

But you know that Gary hates Medford and vice versa. That's gotta be worth something!

I hate linking this Douche, but this is trouble for Arizona if these guys aren’t playing.

I don’t actually hate any of you dirtbags.

Wait, we are playing AZ this week?

That’s good news for us

It should give us an excuse to pass the ball a little bit.

I expect that -29 yards rushing to go up because we'll be hitting bombs all over the field!

Khalil Tate has a year of eligibility in which he reveals his previously unknown defensive skills.

Don't even joke. He'd end up with 5 INTs.

 

[Liver]

the Buffs are still in position to cause great chaos in the b12. let's ruin some hopes and dreams! ... Arizona is beatable for sure.

That’s it?
