Coaching staff has to have spent the last week and the coming week plus figuring out a scheme adjustment to where the ILBs aren’t counted ok as much.

CU vs [REDACTED]- GAME THREAD
- Thread starter SewallBeach
- Start date
Against a strong running team like Iowa State, we’d better commit some corners to tackling in your world. Maybe we can cover their TEs. I have less confidence in our current personnel’s run tackling.

Koler is a load at TE. Not a good matchup for Buffs if it’s ISU.
I'd be shocked if we beat anyone in the Alamo bowl, regardless of who they play. This has been a season well beyond what most of us thought it would be. But the Buffs have been very fortunate from a scheduling and COVID impact standpoint. If we played our original schedule, we likely lose to ASU, USC, and Oregon. We were fortunate to get by UCLA and Stanford. We hung with Utah for a half, but were sorely exposed defensively when Landman went out.... and that problem isn't getting fixed anytime soon. It's been a good season, but I can't see a scenario where it is going to end the way we all want to.
Gawd please not Okie St!!
yeah, our run D might get pantsed by ISU. that is a learning experience for the players and the staff. get guys more reps. build depth and experience. and realize you can't hope a nate landman randomly wanders in every so often. did you see the speed of the guys oregon rotated in on defense v. usc?
we have to get faster, bigger, and more experienced.
the alamo bowl is a perfect opportunity for the program. embrace it.

247 Sports has us in the Armed Forces Bowl against Tennessee.
USC opts out of bowls for Covid reasons? One day after playing a game? And laying an egg?

Allbuffs is much more fun when you have Snow on ignore. Take it from @Gary Indiana and I.
I think its alot to ask for us to fill in for every team and play two bowl games.
Just saying. Tough scheduling there.
(comment only works with the graphic up.. and even then probably not. Late night.)
What’s the Triple Option version of a Defense?
A 3-8 front?

Give me Texas on Dec. 29. They're dysfunctional enough and I kind of wonder how motivated they'll be for a bowl.
I can dig that. I watched ISU, and they are not a bad team at all. Nice to see them leap up. I really don’t want to root against them.
Given the difficulty they may find in keeping players healthy, this could be very sensible.USC opts out of bowls for Covid reasons? One day after playing a game? And laying an egg?

Final projections for every bowl game, including the College Football Playoff
With the conference championships in the books, where will each team land in the College Football Playoff and remaining bowl games? We make our final projections leading into Selection Day.
Penn St too
A handful have already opted out of the season. UT is a mess right now, though playing better to finish the season.
Seems like confirmation

I love the idea of playing Texas. We have a good shot at taking down Texas in Texas at a semi major bowl. Really nothing to lose here. If we lose everyone says yeh. If we win the entire state goes into a tailspin. Very Winnable too, Texas has issues this year, and they have player opting out for NFL.
