Injuries are part of the game. Texas Tech just lost Queinten Joyner the USC transfer projected to be their starting RB. He was a 4* top-100 transfer.

I don't understand ESPN's S&P at all.
www.espn.com
Sure we replace TH, SS and 4 NFL WRs, but the they rank our D way down at 50. We returned a ton of talent on defense and supplemented via the portal. Our 2 deep is all Jrs and Srs except for 1. This for the team that led the B12 in sacks/TFL and returns their coordinator. They give us a -.2 on ST, when we added Buck for KO's, Mata returns, and Greaves does not seem to be much a drop-off from Vlasset. They say it is based on preseason rankings, but the Coaches gave us 12 votes, which puts us in the 40s. I just hate how this metric as it is so skewed to certain conferences and teams.
They have USC at 21, yet they have 11 frosh/sophs in their two deep at O, about the same on D. CU's team is Jrs and Srs. I think age and experience counts for something, look at BYU.

What do the SP+ projections and production numbers say heading into the season?

We lost both Safeties, both LBs, two starting EDGE, our primary NT, and our CB1. That 8/11 starters from last year gone.I don't understand ESPN's S&P at all.

I agree that we upgraded in many areas and we return a handful of guys who played a lot last year but weren’t starters, but the S&P rankings rely heavily on returning starters
They rely on returning production. % tackles returned, %PBU returned, etc. You can loose starters, but if the backups played well and heavily, you won’t get dinged as hard. SP is legit unlike ESPN’s old FPI or whatever. None of these advanced metrics handle the portal era well.

Wow...BYU is playing true-Frosh at QB. I like our chances playing at home.

Sources: Bachmeier makes BYU history as QB1
BYU is naming Bear Bachmeier as the Cougars' starting quarterback, sources told ESPN, which will make him the first true freshman in school history to start an opener for BYU.

The great thing about it is that we get to prove it on the field. My sense is that our OL and DL will be the strongest they have been under Coach Prime. That is a critical aspect of the team, given the skill players we need to replace.I don't understand ESPN's S&P at all.

Is he 29 like the other freshman they have?

With 3 kids in tow?
Check out Seat getting out in front of Micah at about the 4:15 mark in the video. That’s a lot of speed for a big man.
Probably.
Maximus is going to lose his **** if the LT is running down the ride side of the field in an actual game.
There’s a lot of disinformation going on ahead of this game coming from the coaches.
All I know is that if I was a CFB HC, every public word out of my mouth would be either a platitude, a statement of the obvious, hype to raise money/recruit/sell tickets/build an assistant's career, or disinformation to the opponent. You'd have to be a complete idiot to give an accurate description of the depth chart, injury report or game plan in a presser if you don't have to.
Luckily, it makes betting possible.
I guess we will see on first availability reports if it’s true or just smoke.
Aren’t we required to put out an accurate injury report prior to the game?
Yes big 12 only. Probably a lot of “probables”
Good. Let’s play some freakin’ chess.
As @Bread stated, the required injury report is for Big 12 matchups only. Against non conference opponents, it is not required and unlikely that CU would report when Ga Tech does not.
Beta Rank? That doesn’t sound like a good list to be on.

Nevermind. lol
Seems there’s some speed at LB now. Lane discipline and resisting the urge to over pursue will be key.
Deion just announced the least surprising update this fall camp - Salter will start on Saturday.
You mean Friday.
Or does he???
