Hansley worries me too, he's a good football player.

Okay. What do you call it when the team gives up on plays and gets physically dominated AND they're behind (second half)? A "knowing how to deal with success issue"? The team wasn't motivated last year. They had no fire. As soon as CSU punched them in the mouth they backed down like a dog that had been kicked too many times.
Don't you need to have a QB to get them the ball though? I don't think we've played against such bad QB's since Hawaii last year.
Yes. Crawley has not been as dominant as I anticipated early in 2015
We shall see. They didn't need good QB play last year too win the game.
Walker replaced Witherspoon and thought he played well. Wonder if we see him starting this week?
I call it not knowing how to deal with emotional swings in games. Immaturity and lack of confidence. Being motivated is very different. The team wanted to win and came out fired up. You seem to have a particular definition for "motivated" that's outside the normal meaning of the word.
I trust Walker and he did play well when he was in. Upside's really high with Spoon, though.
We'll have to agree to disagree. Every college football team wants to win every Saturday. So what I'm really talking about is the degree of motivation. When a team doesn't respond to physical play, that indicates to me the team lacks true motivation. They want to win, but only if they don't have to make certain sacrifices to do it. That is why I love a guy like Lindsay. Kid is full go, all the time.
So true. This was also probably the most promising thing I saw on Saturday. Colorado had yet another very questionable penalty go against them (along with an ejection) and the team proceeded to get pissed and do something about it. At that point, the rout was on.
Thursday, it turns out, is a different deal entirely.

Walker was also the one that forced the fumble.
Minnesota DBs Eric Murray and Briean Boddy-Calhoun can play, which likely aided in Nick Stevens' insufficiency. That and he's just not that good. I have a feeling Higgins could have went vs. Minnesota if he could have. He warmed up lightly before the game. P5 at home ... pretttttty big deal for the Rams. Been impressed with Tyson Summers and the CSU defense, wonder how much gas they'll have left for the RMS. DeAndre Elliot got hurt, could be big if he doesn't play.
yanking around qb's with little experience sounds familiar around here. Hope the rams have the same results.
