Just didn’t know if there was strategy behind it. It happens a lot. Maybe he is always hit. I can believe that. I certainly understand he was dinged up last game. Like someone said, he can be the best an in cu history (which I believe he is ) and the best in college football (I believe this too) and still underthrow deep balls. Maybe it is a strategy. Even all you long time posting dbags who jump on anyone who says anything contrary to what you think, can’t tell me you don’t see it. You can’t be that obtuse can you.
You’re really asking if Allbuffs’ posters can be obtuse? 🤣
 
Watched it on replay.

Great game. Loved the commitment to the run. Augustave was awesome.

The OL is coming around.

The DB's are sick. Hodge had a great game.

2 and 12 are unbelievable.

Shilo is perhaps the dumbest, most selfish player I have seen in a while. His dumb penalties will cost CU a game along the way, I fear.

Well done Buffs.

I think this is a ****ty take. he is not dumb or selfish. he's a hard worker, he doesn't take plays off, and he's going to get a look at the NFL basically because he works hard even if it is argued that he has some questionable physical metrics.

I highly doubt there would be so many people bagging on him if he were not the coach's kid.

this is going to get easier next season. on the other side of the coin, we seem to have a whole bunch of fans sliming GB because they think he's not effusive enough in praising CP. but, when you look at nearly all the meaningful stats the pundits quote to show the improvement under CP, more often than not, the years they reference are the years GB was the coach.

everyone needs to settle down. this is the composition of our team, this year. the foundations are still being constructed. stick together and build.

I couldn't see what he did live. But watching it back, grabbing that dude's foot (probably because of something he said) is one of the most childish things I've seen a player do

Thank you for the new tagline.

He was upset because the guy pretty much walked through his head as he was trying to get up. After the flag, Shilo ran over to the ref and gave a few hilarious pelvic thrusts to reenact the situation.
 
FYI: ESPN will replay the game at 2 am MDT. Monday morning. 4 1/2 hours from now.

Replays:
ESPN Monday 2 am
ESPNU Monday 10 am

Shilo is physically gifted, but makes dumb plays (doesn't wrap up, going in like a missile, and whiffing on the tackle, LHOOB, and that ridiculous tripping penalty where he grabbed the guy's foot is indefensible). He plays like it all about him. I don't care whether you like it or not, it is on display nearly every week.

Shilo is not dumb.

He does though get caught up in the game an let his emotions take charge of his play instead of his logic.

When the passion results in a good play we are happy, when it shows up in a negative way we get upset, in part because we have seen it before.

Given the option though I would rather have a guy making mistakes of effort and emotion than guys making mistakes out of a lack of caring which is what we had with KD and prior.

Obtuse? I believe precedent calls for a month in the hole.

It's weird. I don't think it's an arm strength issue. It's like he underestimates the speed of his own receivers.
I heard Mark mention SS was a bit dinged up coming into this game. And he seemed to know to head straight to the bike after he had that hit that pissed him off and made him take a knee. They were putting some cream on his hip.

Maybe the hit just exacerbated a prior hip pain, which would—possibly—explain some discomfort with certain throws.

Usually he throws a great long ball. All just speculation, and he clearly was about to get jacked when he got rid of the ball to Trav at end of the half.

He couldn't get full hip torque on his throws after that hit. Bye week came at a perfect time.
 
I feel like they are interpreting the taunting rule incorrectly. That should be enforced on the kickoff shouldn’t it?

That's NFL. See this from LSU-Florida back in the day. And if there's anyone that should be allowed to taunt a little if they're scoring a TD, its the punter.

yep. 2 and 12 and the whole crew can use the break. come back out with hair on fire and finish 4-0 and this gets really interesting.
 
That QB + WR combination is so much harder to defend on 2nd and 6, 3rd and 3 than it is on 2nd or 3rd and 10.

Also all those 3-5 yard runs take a toll on the defense while giving the OL a chance to eat. Constantly pass blocking is tiring and stressful compared to run blocking.

When it mattered in the 4th quarter our OL still had it, the Cincinnati defense was dragging. The running game has a lot to do with that even without busting any big ones (and we were one step away at least a couple times, keep at it and they will come.)
Agree, but why didn't we go for it on 4th and 1 from the 40? I thought that was a mistake and we left points off the board

We still aren't very good at obvious short yardage.

Prime was confident in the defense. No sense giving an opponent momentum and the ball close to mid-field when you can put them back in a hole and let the defense do it's thing.

You are up enough and your QB just tweaked something. Better to let your defense takeover deep in your opponents territory than risking surrendering good field position. If SS is healthy the call to go for it makes more sense, especially if you can chew clock by making it a long drive. The second half defense has been great all year whereas short yardage offense hasn’t been a major strength.

Meh, lotta dbags in here that speak in “fact”. It’s annoying. Put them on ignore.
