In one of the post-game summaries they cited this, with actual numbers. I don't remember where I saw it. I really expected us to shut down the run better in the 2H and we instead let them go on that long scoring drive (8 minutes or so) to open the 3Q. But in the 4th, we were pretty effective against the run.
Yeah but it’s hard to stomach that when guys who are usually great tacklers are just not finishing.
They are doing it with under-recruited, well coached up guys. I'm sure I can find some sophomores and RS Freshman that are playing in the trenches for them and doing well.
We're better off with Shilo on the bench. Tell me why I'm wrong.
The best thing now is to play him so he can’t get a medical redshirt and be here next year. Love Prime and what he’s building, excited to see daddy ball end but gonna enjoy this year.
This. Shiloh needs some splinters
On that first drive of the second half, it looked like we had them for a three-and-out and we missed a tackle on Johnson and he scrambled three inches past the line to gain. That one play (and maybe Shedeur's interception) is the one I'd like to have back.
I think we should, based upon the talent, be better than a 6 win team. I also will be satisfied with bowl eligible if that is as much as we can manage. some folks want to lay it all on the coaches, but the guys have dig deep and execute with the game on the line, too. I think if CP can reduce the churn on the team and keep building we have a chance to be a good program. we aren't there yet. it isn't that we lack team leaders, but we lack that sorta organic player lead culture that leads to good things.
Travis’ injury is the only reason I’m no longer as confident for next week. Otherwise, there’s no shame in losing by 3 to the 16th ranked team in the conference when you’re missing the leading Heisman candidate and your WR2. It’s frustrating that they were 3 minutes away from stealing the win and being 5-1, but KSU is a good team that overwhelmed our front seven and made a few more plays than we did at the end.
Talked with a KSU couple at the airport in the train this morning. They commented how they were told how bad of fans CU has but they said it was no worse than other away games they had gone to. I told them that is a rep we got from various student section behaviors over the years and most of the stories were perpetuated by Nub fans. They did say how disappointed they were in the KSU fan behavior at the game, saying a lot of them were behaving bad and being rude they were sitting in 108, so were amongst many CU fans.
Complete overreaction
If the Buffs finish 6-6 or better, they exceed expectations.
Only preseason
You seem to forget who I am. I have a player, referee, and weather prediction model that simulates game outcomes.
KSU is a better version of NDSU with the same types of running game and passing game but with better athletes at the skill positions and a better DL. It's no surpirse that KSU won.
Oh, my bad, the room was buzzing for 8-4, but Buzz Killington and the supercomputer was still at 5-7. I forgot, and I still hope your model is wrong, cause last night gut me. Felt violated
“The room” meaning you? I’m confused. Most folks here are realists.
