Completely false. 4-5 teams in the Big 12 would beat that team. All you need is a competent OC and good QB.

Who the **** can sleep after that?
it is going to be a long week.
perhaps it is just a tad premature to conclude salter cannot play, CP cannot coach, Shurmur should be fired, and so forth.
lots of **** to work on and improve. there are no world beaters in the stupid ass b12. we could still make the CFP.

I really hate Salter’s throwing motion

Uhh…Salters…
He had numerous open runs on scrambles where he decided to throw instead.
Salter isn’t going to get a million called runs like King. He can’t sustain that kind of punishment.
Fair enough and true.
But... Salter's reads and throws (behind, and overthrows) were absolutely terrible. He could have easily run for 3 first downs, instead threw terrible passes and we punted = 3 potential scores. The WR's were upset (by their body language) with his throws.
The Big 12 is a complete week to week league where you cannot definitively say anyone would beat anyone else.
It was almost like Salter was told not to run. There were at least 4 times he could have just taken off and picked up good yardage instead of chucking the ball in the general direction of a receiver.
The DL is, particularly the interior just got their heads handed to them tonight.
GT is a pretty good team. I suspect they will win 8-9 games this year.
Shurmer is offensive Kryptonite. He could foul up a cup of water.

He’ll be just fine because dude is obviously soft af. He’s in love with that sideline.

Just be rad
Agree 100%
Have a double shot. That's what I'm doing
We were begging for Shedeur to run at times last year and we finally have a legit runner at QB and he’s out there not looking to run. Almost like he was trying to show he can throw.
Is leftwich even here??? I mean i knkw they announced him as a mentor but is he actually here on a day to day basis

A worry I had about him was that he’d take the money and run, so to speak
I don’t think he’s done that, but he needs to flush this one and we need to put up 50 next Saturday
No he doesn't.

What a horrible game. Yeah GT is a tough team to play. But coaching can win that game. Turns out having the boss out and handing the keys to Hart, Shurmur, or Livingston while the boss is sick is not a good idea. Leftwich should be elevated tomorrow. Make Shurmur QB coach and Hart the guidance counselor.
Juju must see time next week and not just if CU goes up. Salter needs to have a sense of urgency to produce.
Stfu, bitch!

I think CU has good players, I worry they are not blended into a good team. When I watch I am not convinced I see a consistent philosophy, especially on offense. It looks to me they have a bunch of plays and they just pick them and run them. I cannot put my finger on it. GT played better than CU tonight and CU was in it until the end.

That escalated quickly
If they are 3 and 1 I'll apologize. But i saw very little to be excited about tonight
I’ll give you a hint why he didn’t use timeouts. It’s the same reason he always takes the ball first in OT when he wins the toss. It’s because he’s really bad at game management. That’s also why he punts on 4th and 1 from midfield when we haven’t stopped our opponent defensively. He’s an elite recruiter and a poor game manager, much like CU’s legendary coach.
OL play was excellent to be honest

Case in point, nobody said a word about them the entire game.

Good grief, it's a first year FBS program, Wyoming, and Houston team that was 4-8 last year. If you're not 3-1 fire
I can see the potential in the offense. Welch and Price averaged 6/carry. The team ran for close to 5/carry (146 yards). Taylor is dynamic with the ball in his hands. The OL is significantly better. The defense was more bend don’t break and certainly not dominant, but made adjustments and played better in the second half. They need to get better at getting off the field and Livingston needs to adjust sooner.
End of the day, they are a relatively equal squad in week one as Georgia Tech. It was a tie game with CU having the ball and a chance to win with 4:30 left. Salter left many plays on the field that could have put CU in a much better position throughout. Someone had to lose and it was CU tonight.
I think I read that Salter is trying to reinvent himself as a pocket passer to make a run at the pros and that is why he came to play for Shurmer.
My guess is that we see a lot of him choosing to throw instead of running this year.
