Colorado Football Notes(Free Content)

Colorado was back on the field Monday after a day off on Sunday. They're continuing preparations for Friday's matchup with Nebraska. It's a game with a lot at stake for both teams. Inside, notes in advance of the game, including CU senior Jordon Dizon's remembrance of when he first realized the intensity of the football rivalry.
 
Classy...

The myth about Nebraska having the nicest or classiest fans in America has been exposed this year. Several media reports from Nebraska have detailed how NU players have been mistreated by NU fans as the losses piled up in 2007. There have even been reports of death threats toward NU defensive coordinator Kevin Cosgrove, and some Nebraska coaches’ children have been subject to verbal abuse at their respective schools.

Dizon said he doesn’t hate the Nebraska program or players. His passion for the game is born out of respect for Nebraska football, one of the most successful programs in college football history. But he got a taste of “classy” Nebraska fans back in ’04, and that’s when he began to understand the nature of the rivalry.

“We were dressed in all white walking through that tunnel and there were these old ladies chucking tomatoes at us,” Dizon recalled on Monday. “Once I saw that I knew this was a real rivalry.”

It's going to be sad seeing the seniors go. They've been through a lot and I hope that their time here will only help them in their future endeavors.

Seriously though, old ladies chucking tomatoes? Must have been my aunt...
