In true Buff fashion we'll somehow find a way to beat WSU then get absolutely Hulk Smashed by Utah leaving the Stanford debacle to be discussed/lamented ad nauseum for years to come.
Then its actually not decent. is it?Our APR is 959 which is decent but so many schools are ahead of us
i would like us not to ride out the season on a huge losing streak. that is some cursed Buff stuff we have seen around these parts more than a few times, even in seasons where we had hope.
bowling would be like hitting a lotto ticket.
Decades even...For years? Really?
What were talking about? Stnford?Decades even...
Selective amnesia is meant to protect us.What were talking about? Stnford?
I can remember losing to NU under Neuheisel three times in a row for 10 points. Both teams were still very relevant too.
I cant remember much about CU football after Barnett.
yea they have talked all morning about the Buffs vs James Madison would sell tickets. It's possible, but CU must win one more, 5 win minimumI crib this from the "other" board:
Supposedly, Dan Patrick is saying the P12 has the legal ability to waive the 6 - win rule and allow a 5 win team to go to a bowl.
I have no idea if that is true, but do remember a few 5 - win teams going to bowls in years past - and not because of covid
There are many smaller bowls that would give a lot to have CP and the high-publicity Buffs.
You have to remember the ivory tower eggheads that ran the P12 into the ground could mess up a glass of water. If CU's bowl fate is on them, mark me down as low confidence.I crib this from the "other" board:

I'd be at that game in a heartbeat.yea they have talked all morning about the Buffs vs James Madison would sell tickets. It's possible, but CU must win one more, 5 win minimum
your drugs. share them.Won't be an issue since we're winning 6 games but it would be hilarious if CU got a bowl game at 5 wins and the nubs didn't
Odd thought: Isn't the P12 now just WSU and OSU? The conference gets some of the payout from bowl games. Does that mean those 2 teams could bank any amount for their future use? Would be an incentive for them to get the Buffs in a bowl.You have to remember the ivory tower eggheads that ran the P12 into the ground could mess up a glass of water.

Depends on when the payouts occur from the CFP. Individual bowl games guarantee the participants certain amounts of revenue to cover costs, but the conference gets part of that as well to distribute. The bigger issue is the NCAA Basketball Tournament payouts which are spread out over 6 years if I remember correctly.Odd thought: Isn't the P12 now just WSU and OSU?

Go Buffs.
As usual the winners will be the lawyers as they take their time to settle this whole thing.Depends on when the payouts occur from the CFP.

Go Buffs.
Flawed theory. Wouldn't the easier path be for Wazzu to win tonight and get to 5 wins themselves.Odd thought: Isn't the P12 now just WSU and OSU?

Pac-12 made a conference rule that members could not participate in the postseason with a 5-7 record because... fvck if I know other than typical Pac-12 valuing something cooked up in an ivory tower over football brand exposure, positive recruiting impact and a great student athlete experience.
You think it would take a miracle to beat a Wazzu squad that has lost its last 6 games?Taking a moment to mourn bowl eligibility
Excluding a complete miracle, the Buffs will become bowl ineligible tonight.
I'm taking a moment to savor just what that means. We've been to TWO bowl games since 2007, and the last time we've won a bowl was 2004. Let that sink in for a moment.
We all have criticisms of BOB but I for one am so appreciative and thankful we're competitive and close to going to bowl games again and that the decades of misery are not yet behind us.
Yea, 8:30 in November in Pullman against a desperate WSU squad that's better than their record in their last year in a power five school.Taking a moment to mourn bowl eligibility

This.Flawed theory.
Which team will draw the most bank from a bowl appearance, WSU or YOUR mutha****ing University of Colorado Golden Buffaloes?
