***Official Colorado @ UofA 2014 Football Game thread***

Just an FYI. On the CU radio app, it is behind the TV. So I have the TV slightly behind and lined up with 850. So much more enjoyable.
 
In my surfing today, I came across, of all things, an Ivy League game. Specifically it was Pitt vs. Princeton. The stands at Princeton were empty, and would be considered a joke on the worst day in CU history in the middle of a blizzard with 50 mph winds at 10 below zero. But it was fun to watch. It was, after all, football. I do find it amazing that so few of us can actually just enjoy football when we watch the team that we supposedly love. To me the worst day watching football beats almost any other day. I am as bad as anybody on this (even though some might think that I am a sunshine pumper), but I do find it amazing that watching football can be such a negative, horrible experience, yet we still do it, week after week, year after year. I have had CU season continuously since 1999, and will continue to do so as long as I have the health to go, and the money to buy them. Yeah, the team may have issues. Yeah, you may have issues with the coaches. Yeah, the turnovers are irksome, at best. I always try to remember that it is football. Football is life.

Uhhh ... slight correction. Princeton played Penn today (as in the University of Pennsylvania ... not Pedo State). But your post is appreciated by me as one who was essentially raised on Princeton football and whose father attended PU for a couple of years, and whose older brother played there as one of the last single-wing centers in football and who also graduated from there. Ivy League football maintains a kind of almost-purity that the "Power 5" conferences can never (and don't want to) emulate.
 
Are DBs just lock onto the receiver... need to trust their position and look back.
