You still complaining about a win?

I just called CSU a rival - someone kick me in the head.

 

[Robert Sorell]

Can someone tell the students that we don’t rush the field after every win…especially against CSU. Not rushing the field says more in this case, than rushing does. They don’t deserve that amount of respect. The Huskers don’t either for that matter.

Kids gonna have fun, let 'em.

Especially since this group of kids all lost like 2 years of all sorts of fun to COVID

 

[JMBuffs]

Kamara and Horton are legit.

 

[Duff Man]

I don't bet on CU.

The line is a measure of how poorly prepared we were for this game, how we overlooked them, and how they coached us. If we bring this to Eugene, we will get embarrassed for real on TV in Oregon. This game had no ****ing business being this close on pure talent alone, we did something wrong, and we need to fix it or next week will be a train wreck.

what we brought today loses 42-10 in Eugene.

You're not wrong, but still pretty important in the grand scheme to get the win. Lots to work on, but at least this team did not completely roll over. We will need some ugly wins throughout the season.

 

[MtnBuff]

Mumme (their OC) deserves the credit.

CSUs roster is always packed with local kids who get up for this game, every CSU HC gets a good run out of their kids for this game.

And they have a bunch of kids who believe they should have been recruited to P5 and weren't. They play like this game is their chance to prove that they were overlooked.

 

[Liver]

spent too much time believing in their own hype this week. we are going to struggle in eugene. we already figured it so. and, we knew we can't lose our super stars and our o-line starting 5.

but take the win and hope our guys can go full speed next week.

Cracked rib is most likely
Could affect breathing
Sucks huge, could miss the two biggest games

Or bruised sternum or cartilage. Either way he'll surely miss time, he's not the kind of dude that leaves the stadium for anything. They probably had to drag him out of there.

That's what I was thinking when I saw the hit. Looked like he drove his shoulder into Travis's ribs. Some painful **** especially if you are constantly sprinting up and down the field.

 

[Bear Fiend]

We need a ****ing bye week

Posters too

 

[Birch1]

What an embarrassment.

For CSU, yes.

“The Drive”

 

[steviet]

Who in here had the Buffs at over 2.5 wins?

I have $200 on the 3.5 over

 

[rynobuff]

We need a ****ing bye week

Normally I'd agree but with THIS team I think our schedule sets up perfect for our attitude. Unless Travis Is Out for one week... then yes a bye week would be nice.

 

[AztecBuff]

 

[Duff Man]

Also, this is easily the strangest way to get to 3-0 I could have imagined.

 

[DBT]

The Drive II

 

[Birch1]

Norvell coached his ass off today, did way more with way less than we have.

They literally had nothing to lose and a bye week. They certainly had their strategies, the best ones being: Hurt Hunter, Hurt Shedeur, fake a cramp whenever we get into a rhythm offensively. If you call that coaching your ass off, be my guest.

 

[manhattanbuff]

Colorado had no business winning this game. Yet, when the game was on the line, somehow fhey found the TE and a way to win the game. This team’s mental toughness is amazing.

 

[absinthe]

For CSU, yes.

Are you joking?

They were expected to lose something line 54-21 by all the books - this was a heroic sho for them. Thank god we won otherwise, people would be laughing at us the way they laughed at TCU after week 1.

 

[slider]

With 8 minutes left CSU had an over 90% chance to win the game minus OT

 

[GoldStampede]

I can't ****ing believe that we won this game. We absolutely took CSU's best shot tonight. Those dirty ****ers played a winning game, but we're a team of destiny. Regroup and keep this rolling!!

you are jaded from our ****ing last 15 years of crap - we should have rolled, there is no reason this D2 roster should have been anywhere near us.

 

[Ruckus]

Didn’t read a single post here. Win and survive. **** it.

Their offense had the DBs confused all game.

But we did win.

 

[absinthe]

But we did win.

Which saved us from national embarrassment.

 

[Medford M.]

Have to give props to the defense on their run D at least. 43 CSU carries for 100ish yards.

 

[rynobuff]

Which saved us from national embarrassment.

Which didn't happen... and the first post this is in response to said "what an embarrassment"

You're a glass-is-half-empty kind of person, eh? Georgia barely won, FSU won by 3 to Boston College. We were gutsy as hell and did it without Hunter. A win is a win. If Hunter is good to go, this will only help us later on down the line. Play like ass for three quarters and yet still find a way. That's an important experience.
